Seinfeld is holding back the new episodes until the sweeps begin late this
month or early next month, at which point it may have a new time slot.

Jeez, Montrealers are so high-strung.  Ease off on the smoked meat :-)

One moment please ...

This repeat must be here for a reason, and since Feb. sweeps are coming
up, they must be using these old shows to re-remind us of the old Crazy
Joe and NBC Show story lines.  Not that we net folks need re-reminding.

Also, this episode kills anyone's idea that the "m" word can't be said
on TV ... George's quote, "If there's no story, it's just masturbation,"
bodes well for a possible repeat of "The Contest" in future weeks ...
VCRs at the ready ...

Actually, it just seems like there's been so few new shows because of
all the repeats.  Probably close to a 1-for-1 ratio.

But, for the record:

The Trip (one hour), The Pitch/The Ticket (orig. one hour), The
Wallet, The Watch (two-parter), The Bubble Boy, The Cheever Letters,
The Opera, The Virgin, The Contest, The Airplane, The Nip, and The
Movie.

Counting the hour shows as two, that's fourteen, which is close to
half a season run.

My guess is there are also probably more re-runs in the fall than
spring because of the holidays.  And this week, they ran a re-run
because of Slick Inauguration.  Most of Wednesday night's shows were
re-runs.  And since tonight was the second half of a two-parter that
explains why last week was also a re-run.  What it doesn't explain is
why they didn't run a new ep last week and a standalone re-run this week.

Yo Yo Ma is indeed a world class chellist.  He's oriental,
but I'm not sure where he was born and grew up.  Much of his work
is classical, but he released an interesting album with Bobby
McFerrin, who uses no instrunemts, but makes crazy sounds.

I thought that this was a wonderful bit of casting.  The cop has played in 
all (I think all) of the Policy Academy movies.  However, he was not in the 
same character that he played in the movies, which was a gun-lover and an 
all around nutcase.  He was much more laid back in Seinfeld.  

Hope he turns up again.

Yep, Yo Yo Ma is indeed a real person. A cellist, at that -- one of the best. 
He just did an album with Bobby McFerrin about a year ago, I think.

This isn't the first time in this thread that cellist was spelled wrong,

Well, some of us are ticked off because of President Bill Clinton.

Sheesh.  He wins the election and then he has to go and force repeats
on all Wednesday night shows just so he can be inaugurated.  Only
thinking of himself, I tell you.

Some of this is :-)'d, but not all of it.  That's an exercise to the reader.

it would be a great aid to those of us trying to complete

Also, does anyone know who Yo Yo Ma is?  Is he really a

I am the one who posted the .wav files.  They were created using Sound
Recorder in Windows 3.1.  I have a ProAudio Spectrum 16 sound card.  They
obviously sound good on my system, but I haven't heard from anyone else
saying that they got the files to work yet.  One suggestion I have is
to try to play the sound by going to ControlPanel/DeskTop/Sound in Win3.1
and choosing jerry1.wav or jerry2.wav as one of the system sounds and
clicking the Test button.

I thought the point was that Jerry had also ordered a muffin, sandwich,

However, there is hope for us niche/cult devotees. This year, 10 of
the early episodes of QUANTUM LEAP are coming out on tape, and its
ratings are, let's face it, microscopic.

Perhaps we should start suggesting to WB that we would rush right out
in a buying frenzy if they released TTA eps on tape?
