SEINFELD: THE SUBWAY (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, Jerry, George, Elaine, and Kramer each are involved in unusual incidents on the subway, which lead to complications. En route to Coney Island, Jerry finds himself sitting across from a naked man; on the way to an important interview, George begins talking with a beautiful stranger who tempts him off the subway to her room at the "Hotel Edison"; Elaine is trapped on a stalled subway car en route to a lesbian wedding where she is supposed to be "the best man"; and Kramer, planning to pay off numerous traffic tickets, overhears a hot tip on a horse race and takes a detour to the race track. In the stand-up segments, Seinfeld comments on amusement park bumper cars and the irony of taking the subway to go to Coney Island to ride the Cyclone roller coaster. Commercials deleted.

Cataloging of this program was made possible by The Coca-Cola Company.
