Customer Reviews

A lot about nothing...

I got this for my DH last year for Christmas. He loves Seinfeld and enjoyed reading this book. Lots of great info.

This Seinfeld book is funny.

I love this book, it's so funny

The book is better than the show--a really big compliment!

I find Fretts's summaries to be as clever and astute as the actual episodes. Now that the show's gone, I love to pick up my copy and take a laugh-out-loud walk down memory lane.

Seinfeld At His Best

"The Entertainment Weekly Seinfeld Companion" is a wonderful reference to the world of Seinfeld. It is filled with anecdotal oddities, like atomic wedgies, ayatollah khomeini and of course the soup nazi. The compendium of shows is great, it tells of each episode. It is missing the last two seasons, however, which can be a drawback. It is an awesome tribute to the man, the marvel, Cosmo Kramer.

The book tells the meanings behind the secretive phrases

Everyone who is a constant watcher of "Seinfeld" knows what the meanings of certain secretive phrases. But if you don't know what "Mulva" means or who "Buck Naked" really is, this book tells you and gives the number of the episode so you can read what that episode was about. It also gives different variations of phrases or props used
