[SinginPrincessLaura]

[adslmfcp]

1.30 is the guy ari gold from entourage ?

[siimens73]

@adslmfcp

yes, it is Jeremy Piven

[adslmfcp]

@adslmfcp so different !!

[cloclocupcake7]

THANK YOU...

I still don't fully get why he said that...was it because she and Jerry were getting *comfy* or because she had insulted his hair and his sweatpants?

[thegirly678]

i love mariska she is freakin hilarious lmao

[JBrrou]

That Martin Van Nostrand guy should try to be a comedian, he was really funny in an unfortunate sense.

[codename617]

I saw a poster for Law & Order and Homicide.

[giantmetfan06]

yeah, Larry Hankin. He did play Mr. Heckles on Friends, and before the show aired he actually auditioned for the role of Kramer.

[smx007]

hahahahaaa there is only one true kramer!!

[Shojahan]

Marishshssssskaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaa..........

[MrReNaTa014]

Mariska S2 =D

[maximadog]

I wonder if Mariska Hargitay drove over to the audition in the Law and Order SUV...

[codename617]

@maximadog Well maybe her future boss gave her a ride. He was on the poster on the wall outside the room. Cragen was first on L&O before the network forced wolf to fire two guys for two women. Also there is a poster for Homicide. Munch was first in Homicide before joining SVU. [Twilight Zone theme]

[Artistiique]

MARISKA :-D

[latino101benj]

it's like a white discoloration...

[tudorhistoryguy]

are these real?

[HeroicDefender]

Mariska Hargitay!!!!!!!!!!

[don417]

Jeremy Piven, ftw

[amazingdany]

Man, Mariska has always been very attractive, must be the Eastern Euro genes.

[steelblue58]

@amazingdany More likely its the Jayne Mansfield genes, IMO. Her dad, Mickey Hargitay, was no slouch either.

[MrDonkDonkerson]

The raisins wouldn't be anywhere near as legendary if DVR had existed back in the day.

[sadface0]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHH......

I'll be comfortable.

[emeraldstream]

guy at 2:57 plays Mr. Heckles on Friends

[lowenklee]

It's Mariska Hargitay from Law and Order:)

[morgantown1]

[ALoveEternal]

[autumn291996]

OMG MARISKA HARGITAY IS SO CUTE!!! :D :) :P I LUV HER IN THESE OLD SHOWS!!! lol

[Bumblestick]

Jeremy Piven is BALD...ing!!!

[silverwheel]

Jeremy Piven's George is incredible!

[kihhn]

2:54 is that Ed Helms?

[freaaa1]

@kihhn hey i do think it looks a little like ed helms of today but this was filmed in 1993-94, making ed under 20 years old at the time. ive seen pics of him from back then and he was very boyish looking, so it aint him. plus, his bio doesnt mention it and it states he went to NY to start his career, not LA.

[PiecesOfRainbow7]

MARISKA HARGITAYYYY!

[worldcupme]

WHICH EPISODE IS THIS ONE_ THANKS

[ElaineImSpongeworthy]

I never noticed he stole the raisins! =0

[Triforia]

3:32

ohh, i'll be comfortable

genius!

[TOSportsFan1990]

At 4:07, Michael Richards is pretending to be Cosmo Kramer, who's pretending to be Martin Van Nostrand.

[lbar1990]

Mariska = beautiful. its funny the different women who were girlfriends on this show became real stars later on!!!

[Ginga]

The look Mariska gives Jerry at 2:34...

She's a fox!

[andiciancarelli]

mariska was perfect!!

[andiciancarelli]

Mariska was PERFECT!!!!!

[poet279]

LOL! Kramer auditioning for the role of Kramer.

[MeanGene79]

God, Mariska Hargitay is GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!

[BoNursukker]

mariska hargitay is a TEN!!!!

[SylviaRebecca]

@BoNursukker

Times Ten!!

[FreeBlago1]

Jerry's such a bad actor it's funny, made the show better!

[QuietGiantProduction]

this is so funny and yet so true of what happened when they made the pilot episode.

[wintersnowboard]

i love this episode haha

[liflyguy]

[Tarwater03]

That Elaine is Mariska Hargitay! XD

[JHOffSuit]

Mariska Hargitay looked good here. LOL too bad she looks old now in law and order.

[lightninglj]

@JHOffSuit i'd still do her

[Abandoneduser]

Their could never be another Kramer

[lurch321]

LOL @ the portly Kramer (@ 2:53!)

[emmjay2662]

I have a lot of respect for Jerry Seinfeld. Great show. Classy guy: A-list talent , comedic legacy. He's also something of a Patron Saint of comedians- he's supported 30 Rock, South Park, & Kathy Griffin- the man's got great taste.

[CainmosniMirrored]

@emmjay2662 Don't forget he supported Michael Richards after his Laugh Factory career ending stunt.

[CHRisdr13]

"I THINK IT MOVED"....OMG LOLLOLOLOL<

[jimmo8]

"Wait a minute I know you! You're the guy from Calvin Klein underwear ads!"

"That's true!"

Classic scene..........

[julzAas]

[mosily1313]

[jms6464]

jeremy piven is hilarious

[mustangersalie]

[GisaBarros]

@mustangersalie yes it is!!

[ICET100]

No its not Her

[grumpytosnowwhite]

LOL at all the Kramers!

[Whillikersify]

I just watched a re run of this episode on TBS. And believe it or not, right afterward, my sister arrived, came into the room and asked me if I wanted any raisins. I totally lost it -- she probably thought I had gone nuts. :D

[junkie4vids]

"Why don't you just say that you took the box of raisins and we can have a good laugh about it"

[42underscore]

3:45 He steals the raisins!!!

[NeverAloneForever]

@42underscore I just noticed it. He takes one of the raisins, puts the box back, and then he takes the box.

[ItsTurningGreen002]

@42underscore He totally does.

[chambersinger38]

omg, i luvvvvv mariska. she's hilarious!!

[ArEaCoDe619]

Mariska was so funny and Jeremy looked so gross, Hahahaha

[taliesen1953]

Jeremy Piven sure had a lot less hair back then

[wlftap]

Mariska Hargitay is so freakin funny. Probably would have been a good Elaine if Julia Louis-Dreyfus wasn't so perfect lol.

[CerebralTantrum]

@3:46 He DID take the box of raisins!!

[ZuboZG]

what's the chick name?

[xBananaSurferx]

@ZuboZG

Im assuming you mean Mariska Hargitay. Shes the lady in the flower dress. Shes on SVU. Its such an awesome show!!

"Oh he knows he's bald" haha

[dollhairthepup]

lol Brad Garrett at 2:54.

[Ecksntrick8]

That's surely not Brad Garrett.

[dollhairthepup]

What other big ass hulking monster would that be?

[Ecksntrick8]

The guy was not 6'8", but, I know it wasn't Brad Garrett.

[farerse]

why are they auditioning for "george" when he is already sitting there next to jerry

[naasrddad]

Are you serious? Did you ever watch the show?

[farerse]

[naasrddad]

Then you should know that this episode was about a pilot TV series about themselves. They were auditioning actors to play themeselves. Still confused? Then check out the latest series of Curb your...

[farerse]

[veggievampire]

[naasrddad]

"Did he just steal the rasins???" XD
