Seinfeld The Chronicle (1989–1998) Online

In the next to last episodes in the series, this two-parter highlights many of the funniest moments in the show's 9 year run. Included is George's problem with shrinkage; his wig; Jerry's girlfriend, Mulva; Elaine's odd dancing technique; Kramer's high powered shower head, the soup Nazi; Jerry's dentist; Jerry's puffy shirt. The list goes on.....
Episode complete credited cast:
Jerry Seinfeld Jerry Seinfeld - Jerry Seinfeld
Julia Louis-Dreyfus Julia Louis-Dreyfus - Elaine Benes
Michael Richards Michael Richards - Cosmo Kramer
Jason Alexander Jason Alexander - George Costanza

This episode aired immediately before the series finale. An outtake of the cast dancing between takes during the filming of the finale is featured here.

In the version of Green Day's "Good Riddance (time of your life)" used in this episode, its tempo is a little faster than the normal version of the song.

The first montage of clips is set to John Williams' Superman: Η ταινία (1978) score.

When George (Jason Alexander), Jerry (Jerry Seinfeld) & Elaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) are dancing to the Michael Jackson song "Don't Stop Til You Get Enough," we see them do 'the swim' down a hallway. This isn't a clip from any episode - it's an outtake from the final episode that aired directly after the clip show on NBC.

Jerry (Jerry Seinfeld) breaks the fourth wall during the opening scene, while Kramer (Michael Richards) and George (Jason Alexander) are down the hall on their way to the movies, and are still entirely in character yelling at Jerry, worried that they'll miss the previews.

This is the second part of the final clip show before the last episode. While folks might just say, ah these are just clip shows, both of them are so much more than that. There is a reason I choose this second part over the first but the both of them are together on the DVD set as 1 program.

What is great about both part of these is that they use clips to review all the major themes of the show. This first part hits the Superman theme that was mentioned more than once during the series. This last part hits my favorite theme.

Jerry Seinfeld, a big Abbott & Costello fan, does a section of this with set photos set to the song "I Hope You've Had The Time of Your Life". To me, this sums up quite nicely Jerry's A&C ties as one of their better films has the same theme. This sequence has a sentiment that to me hits the correct cord for ending the series. In a way, I think these 2 clips shows should have been run after the Finale which followed it.

This was the first time I had ever heard this particular song, but it is exactly right as it illustrates going out at the top. These folks had the time of their life doing this show & they took their audience along for the ride. While they have found some work since they ended this, the fact still remains that for the cast of Seinfeld, this is the time of their lives.

Seinfeld as a conclusion was very weak, and kind of depressing. But this "episode" is a nostalgic recap, homage and reminder of one of the best TV Shows of all time, leave alone sitcom. It's spot on on the editing at first and a tear dropper at the ending. Very deep for a long time viewer. So I like to consider this as the real ending that really sums it up for me.
