George Steinbrenner On Seinfeld

[dsscam]

Steinbrenner, a fan of the show, long portrayed by the voice of Larry David, filmed scenes for a guest appearance in this episode, but none of the footage made it to air. Reportedly, he disapproved of the morbid plot twist in which Susan is killed; and the gang's indifference towards it. Steinbrenner publicly stated his objections and said that's the reason he refused to allow his cameo.However, the Season 7 DVD release indicates scenes were cut for time, and that Steinbrenner and held no grudge

[citifan09]

he was actually there?

[ironcity1933]

He is gonna burn in Hell.

[tokeallnight]

@ironcity1933 feel free to insult the dead who did horrible things. insult MJ he boinked a child, insult murderers. he did nothing that means that he should be hated for.

[tieyourmotherdown1]

@ironcity1933 How would he burn in hell? He gave so much money to different charities and schools. I hope you burn in hell.

[yari8430]

the sound is screwed up

[latinahoney123]

I didn't know he was really on here before, I thought I seen all the Seinfelds but I don't remember this clip! Strange

[antdude]

@GandalfGarnett Mine is the same and I am using a quad core system!

[tf2whackyengineer]

@GandalfGarnett Just to ask Gandalf, are you using youtube's HTML5 beta? That could be a reason you are not having problems. Perhaps the htlm5 version converted correctly. Anyway, once again, for anyone having problems just add &fmt=18 onto the end of the URL and enjoy.

[tf2whackyengineer]

@GandalfGarnett Nope, it has nothing to do with his computer. Youtube screwed up something in the conversion process. I played this about a month or two ago with no problems and now the sound cuts out partway through. It resumes in the same spot it left off, but the video has gone past that point so it's massively out of sync.

I found the solution though. Add &fmt=18 to the end of the URL in the address bar, right after the 'w'. This loads a different conversion that doesn't have the problem.

[seabeetow4u]

@GandalfGarnett I played this on my mobile phone several hours ago and it played perfectly, now it cuts out here too at 0:45 right when Steinbrenner says "...lose a l...." and sound goes off.

[johnnyfaithless]

@GandalfGarnett the same thing happens to me.

[TatianaSword]

Haha his dead

[latinahoney123]

@TatianaSword what the hell is funny about that? have some respect

[FreakyDDR]

Sound is not fine.

[IronChefWannabe]

the sound is fine



[tntrampage1]

RIP Boss

[dillsnufus]

why is part of it silent?

[GandalfGarnett]

@dillsnufus At what time do you get silent? I'm the OP and I've just played it again and it has sound all the way through.

[dylanbradbury]

@GandalfGarnett

It goes mute at 0:45.

[juanphdz]

@GandalfGarnett at about 0:46 the sound goes, and then comebacks but out of sync

[GandalfGarnett]

@juanphdz Okay, it seems different browsers handle it differently. Here's what works for me. Working on Mac:- Safari 5.0 iCab 4.7.0 RealPlayer 12.0.0 iRecordMusic 1.6 AOL Desktop for Mac 1.6.634 Not working on Mac:- Camino 2.1a1pre FireFox 3.6.7 FireFox 4.0b2pre SeaMonkey 2.0.4 Google Chrome 5.0.375.99b Not working on Windows:- IE 8.0.6001.18702 Google Chrome 6.0.458.1 RealPlayer 12.0.0.879 I tried on my iPod Touch and it works too. One post said add &fmt=18 to the address which seems to work.

[antdude]

@dillsnufus Mine started at 45 seconds. :(

[freddienyc]

REST IN PEACE MR STEINBRENNER

[robb2155]

the sound on this video is f***ed up it goes mute in the middle then starts up with the audio that was missing but in a different scene

[sistalinda]

[alk61695]

what episode is this from

[IdioticTendencies]

Lanie needs a cooler!! =DD

[RLuteran]

elaine wityh straight hair is soooo hot

[vaibanez17]

LOL @ Elaine being Steinbrenner!!!! I love this...this is a great set of scenes but it really would've messed up the whole idea that Steinbrenner was being played "more hilariously" by Larry David. I'm glad they shot it so it can be seen, while at the same time glad that it wasn't used.

[saijq]

Elaine got smoking here

[dlightman1978]

omg, which episode was this on ????

hillarious elaline's monologue

[nymphadoraCRO]

this is season 7 finale, but this part wasn't shown on tv only on dvd caouse Steinbrenner didn't like that Susan dies in the end, and they had time limit..

[greg5566]

@nymphadoraCRO Oh yeah, it couldn't be because he was so unfunny!

[tr1ptan]

I really wish George was better at this, Julia's part at the end after they switched seats was just amazing.

[yorgo69]

How can you dislike George Steinbrenner. He wants to succeed like any other owner.

[kraken589]

i'm a red sox fan that's how

[xazax]

The reason they didn't use it was because Steinbrenner didn't approve of the characters callous reactions to Susan's death.

[Indifferent86]

what the hell is an usher?

[Seston]

someone employed to conduct others

[roskildahphreak]

A selfobsessed rnb be singer who has no personality and sucks ass

[mauriceh01]

we're winners, we don't sit with losers, LMFAOOOOOOOO yeahhhh!!!! Yankees WIN!!!!!!!!!

[Kissyring]

The reason they didnt use the real steinbrenner was he couldnt act

[LeslieChimes]

I see why they didn't use this. It wasn't very funny and the real Steinbrenner wasn't as animated as the fake one. It didn't match up.

[leafyutube]

Which episode was this? I don't remember this episode.

[poyzork]

Its not from an episode, its a deleted scene, from an episode i dont recall at the moment.

And that is the ACTUAL George Steinbrenner that is the president of the Yankees, the one in the other shows are some actor, and Larry Davids voiceover

[roskildahphreak]

It's a deleted scene

[herbalthaternation]

I really dislike Steinbrenner irl but i gotta give him props for being a good sport

[TOstevo]

Soooooo glad this didn't end up in the show. They made the right decision to scrap it.

[morgantown1]

Steinbrenner could have had an emmy....

[seeingthesigns]

How is it that Elaine kept evolving over the years? She seemed to redefine the character over the years and Elaine became more of a cynical smartass each season.

[SharksKid]

I see why Larry fired him.

[aka1darkknight]

@SharksKid what do you mean?

[dbreiden83080]

@SharksKid

I don't.. They brought him on to be George Steinbrenner and he did.. Watch The Scout, he played himself and was great..

[blew1091]

Steinbrenner was going to be on but Larry David fired him because he was such a bad actor which is true its painful to watch lol. Larry said it was one of the greatest joys of his life firing Steinbrenner

[gopconservative78]

Steinbrenner is still an asshole

[Yoda3542]

where did this clip come from? i dont remember it in any episode

[pugwishbone17]

It was cut out to save time, also it was on the season 7 finale "The Invitations"

[junkie4vids]

Larry David's portrayal of Steinbrenner is funnier but the real George Steinbrenner did an "ok" job of imitating himself. LOL.

[argaz3]

Steinbrenner's acting was very good for a non-actor. He obviously couldn't imitate Larry David's portraying of him.

[eventide11]

Really. I thought he did a good job for an OWNER OF A BALL CLUB and NOT AN ACTOR. I dont get why people rip on him for being decent at something he has no training for.

[42underscore]

I prefer Larry David Steinbrener.

[nyr1994]

HA!!!! King George! I love it...

excellent clip!

[yankeehater101]

Cuz whoever that is i like the other imitator better

[yankeehater101]

is that really george steinbrenner?

[Kafe420]

yes it is.

[ReesiePuffs64]

the official version, or one of them, is that they were afraid this would have ruined the joke.

and yes, elaine is SMOKIN' HOT! julia is still cute in an older sort of way, but back in the 90's she was a FOX!!!!

[yak6ex]

Why does the guy who imitates the owner on the other episodes sound nothing like the actual owner in this scene?

[ReesiePuffs64]

i think your referring to larry david, the show's co-creator. he just kind of came up with the imitation, and they just used his voice on the show.

[ureoqur]

is this a deleted scene?

[Kafe420]

yep

[myluvforfriends]

i dont know about grouge but..elains pritty damn hot!

[Begonias6969]

elaine sooo hot

[SkeffingtonP]

Late 90's good ole days.

[TMG87]

The Elaine parody was excellent (although out of character), but Steinbrenner's appearance didn't quite fit in.

[Eric4372]

You are 1000% right. Too bad they couldn't use the Elaine rant.

[selacious]

he sucked.

good call LD!

[metsfan9119]

well actually Larry cut him out cause it was taking too much episode time and his acting was really terrible I thought Big Stein wasn't a terrible actor but Larry thought otherwise

[Keenen420]

well i prefer the steinbrenner impersonation that we all know so well

[bOstik210]

word to that

[sometimesoonfan]

thanks steiny for causing torre to leave you fucking jerkoff.

[Samoth06]

Oh man, the things they cut from these episodes just to fit into the timeslot...

[BronxBomber182]

What episode and season is this?

[sizlnslaya34]

im guessing its before 1996...since theyve won 22 WS's and 33 pennants

[cromicus]

"and when they throw the bridal bouqet you'll maybe get it"

[Stian22]

btw, KingP, i just reliazed i was talking about one thing and you another, lol.. ;)

[banditt1984]

This war really funny

Especialy when Elaine did that larry_george steinbrenner thing

[KingPyroManiac]

larry david cut him out of the episode because steinbrenner prolly offended him in some way or maybe Ld just wanted to make a fool out of him

[Stian22]

KingP, that might be the unoffical version of it,, but the offical is that he just couldn`t act and froze up.. that`s why the never showed his face.. and his voice. well, they explaied that aswell, but forgot... but anyways

[MatthewEK]

They didn't use the real Steinbrenner because they were needed to cut something to make the timelimit, and they wanted to be able to use Larry as Steinbrenner in later episodes.

[hippy313]

im surprised steinbrenner even showed up on the show after all the times they make fun of him lol

[nyy218]

Is that really steinberner at the beginning i cant even tell lol

[schraderfan]

Great Larry David impression by Julia Louis-Dreyfus

LANEY NEEDS COOL FEET

[t4paN]

LMAO, hilarious!

[Maaike2356]

Omg that was terrible, good thing they cut this part. Larry was way better as Steinbrenner than the real one.

[GrigoriPechenka]

I really don't think that would of worked. Larry David was much funnier doing his impression. And Elaine doing the Steinbrenner impression didn't make sense and was pretty annoying.

[CPRGEXROSR]

yea, that was pretty terrible.

[shortylongbacks]

that was aweful.

Larry David is way better as Steinbrenner:)

[Dsenuik]

good thing this never made the cut......

[gamer7845]

Lainie needs a cooler!

LOL

[Eric4372]

I liked the "Elaine as Steinbrenner" bit

[KingPyroManiac]

yeah why wuld they get steinbrenner then not show him in the episode everytime guest stars who are'nt actors act terribly u just want them in the episode for the commercial during the week leading up to it bad acting my ass he was what in 2 scenes u know people wuld of been entertained by that if it reached the air.....

[Ortmeyer41]

They didn't show it also because they didn't want to ruin the affect of Larry's voice doing it in every other episode

[STU676]

yeah the acting is kind of,,,,,,how you say ---FUCKING AWFUL !!!!!!!

[jepjep07]

lol, this was just awesome.thanks

[cutwolf55]

lol

[Rocktopunk2]

AWESOME!!! BEST SHOW ON EARTH!!!

The reason why those scenes were, was because the REAL Steinbrenner didn't like the ending. You know Susan's death.

[StevePlzBelieve]

Lies.

Larry David said that his acting was terrible so he cut it.

[tleatherland]

I've always wanted to see this. Thanks for posting!

[pavelow235]

bravo good post
