Episode #71; 5:7
Our Commentary
Overall, a beauty of an ep. Adam - Very funny episode, does not make my Top 50, but funny nonetheless. Everything from Kramer's smoothness b/c he has the kevorka to Kramer calling Jerry and Elaine fat every single second, makes this episode truly much like Weekend at Bernie's II, an hilarious premise.
