SEINFELD: THE CONTEST (TV)
Summary
One in this comedy series set in New York City in which comedian Jerry Seinfeld plays himself. Humorous situations in his personal life are interspersed with brief stand-up comedy routines. In this episode, George tells Elaine, Kramer, and Jerry that his mom caught him "doing it alone" in the bathroom. Startled, she collapsed and wound up in the hospital, and George swears he will never "do it" again. Ultimately, the four friends decide to bet on which of them can refrain from "doing it" for the longest period of time. The contest becomes more challenging when Kramer discovers that a woman who walks around her apartment nude is visible from Jerry's living room; George spies an erotic bathing session at the hospital; John F. Kennedy, Jr., attends Elaine's aerobics class; and Jerry tries to cope with his girlfriend's determination to remain a virgin. Commercials deleted.
Cataloging of this program was made possible by Jonathan Kandel.
