- Bozo the clown is out, George! When a small fire breaks out at Robin's son's birthday party, George tramples women and children to make it out first.
From Seinfeld Season 5 Episode 20, 'The Fire' George dates a woman who has a son. She invites him to her son's birthday party. While at the party, a fire breaks out in the kitchen. George screams "FIRE!!!" and knocks down the kids and the old lady as he cowardly tries to make his escape. The clown (not Bozo) puts out the fire with his big shoe. Meanwhile, over at Pendant Publishing, Elaine learns that she's up for a very nice promotion. But her main competition, Toby, is working with Kramer on his coffee table book.

About Seinfeld:
Seinfeld stars Jerry Seinfeld as a stand-up comedian whose life in New York City is made even more chaotic by his quirky group of friends who join him in wrestling with life's most perplexing, yet often trivial questions. Often described as "a show about nothing," Seinfeld mines the humor in life's mundane situations like waiting in line, searching for a lost item, or the trials and tribulations of dating. Co-starring are Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Jerry's ex-girlfriend and current platonic pal, Elaine Benes; Jason Alexander as George Costanza, Jerry's neurotic hard-luck best friend; and Michael Richards as Jerry's eccentric neighbor, Kramer.

This is my top George moment of all time. It so perfectly encapsulates his character.
"How do you live with yourself?"
"It's not easy."
😂
🤣🤣🤣
Mine too. Love it!!
He would (of course) blame it on his parents. Not that there's anything wrong with THAT
That's exactly how Larry Charles came up with the scene--just the idea of George shoving old women and children out of the way to get away from a fire made him laugh, because it's quintessentially George, stripped down to his essentials.
So TRUE
Nothing better encapsulates George’s character than the mother going from ‘You seem like such a nice man’ to ‘THAT’S THE COWARD WHO LEFT US TO DIE’ in the span of five minutes
That plus another girlfriend’s mother calling him a gentleman and then catching him eating out of the garbage 😂
I love that part. Being publicly shamed for cowardice by a sweet old lady would be one of the worst fates I can imagine. It would be time to change cities at that point.
@@gawthic1 Look up the video of super gram attacking robbers
"You seem like such a lovely young man."
@@jeffsims8270” well I try to be “
Jon Favreau’s best role. “You’re living in the past man, you’re hung up on some clown from the sixties man”
From the sIIIIIIIxties
I thought that was him!
3 years later he'd be on Friends as Monica's boyfriend Pete Becker who would compete in UFC. Quite a change from Eric the clown.
And now he's the most powerful writer/director in Hollywood!
He should wait 3 days to call her.
The clown wasn't even in his way, lol, he purposefully knocked him down.
Dont forget poor ole gran toots too!
seemingly, seemingly
@@steelyspielbergo what looked like pushing, what looked like knocking, was a safety precaution!
Well come on, its a clown. How many of us wouldn't jump at an opportunity to shove a clown, even in the midst of a disaster
We get very used to being bashed up leaving a job with bruises is part of the industry
The way he pushes the old woman makes it all the more hilarious
He used the stiff arm, lol
Lmfao 😂🤣😅 Exactamundo. At least he didn't rob her in the middle of the night, take her marble rye and call her an old bag lol.
His excuse was they needed a leader and should thank him lol
@@theprinceoftides6836 you forgot telling her to shut up, before calling her an old bag.
I crack up every time I watch this😂😂😂😂
It's actually very impressive how he could come up with all these excuses right on the spot
"Seemingly, seemingly to the untrained eye I could see why you would think that. But in a fire, you're supposed to stay low to the ground! Am I right?"
Exactly. He almost had me convinced :-D
Thats george for you he does something obviously wrong and tries his damnest to justify it and that is what makes him great lol
@@FOXZILLA5734In the immortal word of the great Costanza, It's not a lie if U believe lol.
@@theprinceoftides6836 That’s exactly what I was going to say!
The more I see into George's flashbacks when he was young,the more I understand why he is how he is as an adult 😂
The frightened look on 7 year old George's face is priceless!
BLOW OUT THE CANDLES GEORGE! BLOW OUT THE DAMN CANDLES!
So funny!
Yep, crazy parents... just like Jerry, Kramer and Elaine.
Get a grip man this is just a TV show with actors and a script
That old lady yelling: "That's the coward that left us to die"
😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Its the mom of the woman George was dating
I love how everyone's reaction to bozo the clown isn't the expected disinterest but like, active dismissal and anger.
Can you blame them?
He’s living in the past man.
He’s hung up on some clown from the sixties maaan!!
If George would just drop the Bozo issue people wouldn't be so angry.
People get angry when they dont know things.
Bozo is a very polarizing clown…
Get off the drugs and speak English another one born after 1990
George is the only man who could have a group of children, a group of elders AND a clown hate him all at once in one setting.
He managed to make a lot of viewers hate him for being happy about his fiancee's death
@@amitkenan3878 hey, once you can get a girlfriend, you don’t want a girlfriend, you just want to keep getting girlfriends, she should’ve gotten with the program.
Besides, she punched him that one time, that’s abuse.
@@amitkenan3878 Accrording to Jason Alexander, the incident that got him the most hate mail wasn't Susan's death, his reaction to it, this fire, or trying to get his girlfriend's aunt's death certificate to save on airfare...it was for eating the eclair out of the trash.
George has a knack of making people dislike him almost immediately, intentionally or not.
"You're living in the PAST man!... You're hang up on some CLOWN from the SIXTIES MAAAAAN!!!"
Love that line!
Lol me too. That part had me rolling
I always think How does he know Bozo is from the 60s if he's never heard of him?
And what's absurdly hilarious is that he says it in a way that makes him sound like HE's from the sixties (man!).
🤣😂🤣😂😂😂 so true
How that became an official line is beyond me but Im glad it did
The clown trying to clock George with one of his oversized clown shoes is stellar!
FRRR☠️☠️☠️☠️
"STOP IT FRANK, YOU'RE KILLING HIM!
“BLOW OUT THE CANDLES!”
“YOU DON’T NEED GLASSES! YOU’RE JUST WEAK!!! YOU’RE WEAK!!!”
This defines George’s character so much 😂 never gets old
IKR
2:37 woah!
Hes hung up on a clown from the 60s man
The scenes in this video is his whole entire character in a nutshell! 🤣
In a disaster he may be the last one in but he's the first one out of a home with elderly, women, children, and a clown
He closed the door behind his self! George is one of the biggest tv villains of all times!
WHAT YOU SAID!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂I am crackin up over your comment!
The best way to put out a fire is to starve it if oxygen. George knows this and was making sure there was less oxygen in the house.
@@Demiglitch Costanza would be proud of you for this excuse😂
If you've only been watching television in this century
@@James-kv6kbyes, because seinfeld is a 21st century show, good analysis there.
Frank: Blow out the candles! I said BLOW OUT THE DAMN CANDLES!!!
Estelle: STOP IT FRANK! YOU’RE KILLING HIM!
Came for this comment. Lol
How alphas create more alphas. They imagine.
Frank: BLOW OUT THE CANDLES!!!
@@roguesheep3083 well it clearly failed that way. Not only is George not an alpha, he isn’t even a beta. He is a failure in all ways.
Lmao! You know his mom spoiled him 🤣😂
So the mother goes from, "you seem like such a lovely young man" to "that's the coward that left us to die". Sounds about right.
I mean, that guy you thought was nice shoves you on the ground during a fire and leaves around to die I would have that flipped reaction to.
😂
Almost the exact same thing happens with his girlfriend's mother when she sees George eating an eclair from the trash.
emphasis on "to die" 😭😭
Same thing happened with Tuttle; from “you understand everything immediately” to “I’m starting to wonder if you understand anything!”
How is it possible that Jason Alexander never won an Emmy for George Costanza. He’s the most original, as well as the best developed, character - plus he’s the best actor.
Nah that's Kramer.
@@johnp82 Nah he is just slapstick and some catchprhases, Can't stand ya is the real deal
@@ironmaster6496 if you say so.
He never won? Are you sure? For a talented actor even in musicals, I would think he and some of the other cast mates would have cases of awards.
@@saphiquefemme He has a Tony Award for his performance in a Broadway musical (actually won exactly a month before Seinfeld premiered) but he never won an Emmy for playing George, usually due to Michael Richards being in the same category. Michael won three times for playing Kramer and Julia won once for playing Elaine; Jerry and Jason never won Emmys for Seinfeld. All four and the overall show are so iconic though their impact has outweighed any number of Emmys.
“Seemingly to the untrained eye I can fully understand how you got that impression”
That is such a George thing
I like the part at 3:27 where George says who would lead, the clown? And the clown starts to go at George but is held back by the paramedic.
“How do you live with yourself?”
“It’s not easy.”
"you're hung up on some clown from the '60s man!!!"
that line always cracked me up lol
"you're living in the past mannnn!! you're hung up on some clown from the 60s mannnn!!"
I swear I fall down laughing whenever I hear Favraeu say that line in his voice
Agreed
That was Jon Favraeu?! 😂
Favreau's delivery sounds like the Dude from the Big Lebowski.
It's my favourite part of this episode. I could watch that part over and over and never stop laughing.
I had no idea that was Happy from Ironman!
This would've been funnier with Jerry's comments in the coffee shop.
Jerry: So you feel that the whole notion of women & children first is a bit antiquated.
George: They should THANK me for treating everybody equal!!!
So basically, it's every man, woman, child, and invalid for themselves! LOL
@@fromthehaven94 yup, the only true equality.
It’s on YT. You’ll find it
It was a SAFETY precaution!
I agree - the coffee shop scene following this is the funniest and best moment!
He was trolling George, he knew Bozo was from the 60s.
Definitely haha. "How could you not know who Bozo the Clown is?" "I dunno, what is he, a clown?"
The clown was the best.. “what are you hassling me for, this is just a gig, it’s not my life”… used that quote a few times
Fun fact: that was Jon Favreou
That's what my surgeon once said to me.
I love how he pulls those kids away from the door to get out
They stayed tehere like they weren't able to open the door.
You have to respect George for at least treating everyone equally. As long as he is the first person out.
Totally,, Georgie is an equal opportunity abuser lol.
“So…she doesn’t want to see me anymore”
“Did you knock her over too or just the kids?”
“No her too, and her mother”
“Really? Her mother?”
“Ya…may have stepped on her arm too idk”
“You probably couldn’t see because of the smoke”
“Ya, but it was somebodies arm”
@@theprinceoftides6836 He's an equal opportunity selfish person who thinks fot himself rather than other people.
@@jackdull5699 And he'll screw over anyone regardless of age, race, or gender.
😆😆😆😆
The way George says "Bozo" is perfect.
Bōzo
The way he says "ERIC the clown" with complete contempt in the coffee shop afterwards is great too.
This was the single funniest moment on Seinfeld for me
Single funniest moment on the entire show?!!! How do you live with yourself?
@@dncviorel with his videos.. i think it's hardly
@@dncviorel it’s not easy
To the untrained eye yes it's the funniest moment.
Definitely for me too!!
George spotted the fire when nobody else did, if anything he's a hero!
Right!? He saved himself to go find help to save everyone else..but people don't see that!
But it was just a couple of greasy burgers. Eric the clown put it out with his big shoe.
And here all these years I thought it was just some dry ice for the party😉
He was making sure the exit was clear. True hero !
Yep all those children getting in the way and trying to get out, he had to clear a way for himself, the one who actually spotted the fire gets first dibs of course 😂
Firefighter: “How do you live with yourself?” 😠😠😠
George: “It’s not easy.” 😰😰😰
When George pushes over Eric the Clown, you'll notice that Eric isn't even in George's way very much. George had to reach over to one side to shove Eric when he was running, even though he probably could have run past Eric without making contact with him. So this basically means that George was so desperate to get out first that he put in extra effort to make sure that no one could possibly get in front of him! 🤣🤣🤣
George was just making sure Eric was on the ground to avoid the smoke
BUT IT WAS AN INFERNO IN THERE! AN *INFERNO!*
Seemingly, seemingly.
I thought it was to get back at him for not knowing about Bozo the clown.
just to get back at Eric for not knowing who Bozo is/was and who said George was in Eric's words "hung up on him" petty ass revenge
When George asked "What kind of a Topsy-Turvy world do we live in?" I couldn't help thinking of "The Hunchback of Notre Dame." For those who don't know, Jason Alexander was part of the cast, and "Topsy-Turvy" was the song performed during the Gypsy Festival.
That’s right I forgot he played Hugo the gargoyle
“That’s the coward that left us to die!”
-things I want engraved on my tombstone
This is gold, Jason Alexander was an exceptional choice to play George.
When Larry David tried playing him in curb, he couldn't do it. Theres only one George. Jason.
0:56 why George Costanza is the way he is
I love it when the clown charges at George to hit him with his big clown shoe 🤣🤣🤣
“Any other questions?”
“How do you live with yourself?”
“It isn’t easy.”
😂
George pushing down the old woman with the walker never ceases to make me laugh. 😂
He folds at the very end. The very end of an amazing rant to justify his cowardice. That's a special kind of person. How was he not a lawyer? 🤣
The work required for law school would've ended him on the first day 😆
I think Georgie's just too lazy to study for the bae exam lol.
He could have worked for Saul Goodman 😂.
@@theprinceoftides6836 He absolutely is. Remmeber, he was too lazy to read Breakfast at Tiffany's even though it was a short book.
When he pushed Bozo... im sorry, "Eric" the clown and then he pushed the old lady with the walki lost it. LMAO!
Pushed? He tackled her ass out of the way!!! 🤣
He also tackles Bette Midler in baseball!
George Costanza, a man who risked his life making sure the exit was clear for everyone else to get out. Now that's true heroism.
He should have got the Medal of Honor for his heroism.
Too bad his girlfriend, the kids and the old woman on the walker didn't see it that way!😄
omg the way the clown and old lady go flying is just too hilarious lololol
"Eric the Clown" was one of televisions best comedic moments. To say that he nailed it would be the understatement of the year.
A truly magical moment for George. Shine on you crazy diamond.
Eric the Clown is one of the best one-off characters on Seinfeld. He's played by Jon Favreau, his argument with George about Bozo is hilarious, and he saved everyone by putting the fire out with his big shoe.
I was trying to LEAD THE WAY!
WE NEEDED A LEADER!!!!!😂
Yeah well, all the pushing and shoving was a safety precaution!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂
My favourite scene. I’m crying with laughter. The whole scene is brilliant. George’s parents yelling and fighting over George blowing the candles out at his 7th birthday 😂😂
I can hear Jerry's mom laughing at the 2:30 mark.
Good ear!
"Eric the Clown put it out with his Big Shoe" They missed one of the best parts of the arc
O no! He couldn't have! According to George, "It was an inferno in there!"
So it was basically every man, woman, child, and invalid for themselves?
@@beani24329 Perhaps when she is released from the burn center, she'll see things differently
@@MrTCHOSS Perhaps.
Knowing bozo the clown and making sure the exit is clear! The two great pinnacles of costanian wisdom!
4:10 this speech it’sELF worth OSCARS
I love George’s escape, he pushed people to get them out of the way…into safety.
George is a testament of what people are capable of when survival mode kicks in.
00:48 - "It's over for Bozo". I don't know why that cracks me up, but it does.
I love it when the clown loses his cool with George in front of the kids , great scene 😅
When he knocks down the old lady with the walker, I just lose it. 😂😂😂
You know something is wrong when a clown tells you to get over it lmao
It looks like George shuts the door after fleeing the room. Makes his cowardice even worse.
It wouldn't be Costanzaesque to say 'Sorry I panicked.'
Well, you gotta starve the fire of oxygen. Costanza never loses his cool.
Seemingly 😏
To the untrained eye, it might have looked like that.
@@phlushphish793 Nope, not only he has to save face but also make himself look like the hero
Eric the Clown put it out with his Big Shoe. I love that line!
04:19 a coward dies 1,000 deaths a brave man only once.
This show was more than just comedy. There were lessons woven in too. When you're a young man starting a relationship, true courage, not fake like he depicted, goes a long way. Same thing for honesty.
Well, courage and honesty are highly desirable traits in a man at any age. Normally I feel some sympathy for George given his upbringing/struggles, but him shoving those people out of the way and thinking only of himself was a new low, even for George. Don't get me wrong, that new low was funny in the context of the show.
Love how George can get into an argument with a clown at a kid's party
Them survival instincts kicked in, that fight or flight.
I love how passionate George is about Bozo.
George is my personal hero
Imagine this: from a clown in a sitcom to creator of the Mandalorian 😲
Seinfeld success recipe was knowing how to surround themselves with AMAZING talent, even the secondary roles.
Lol clowns delivery is perfect.
The whole dialogue with Jon Favreau is epic.
I’m one of those people who has watched every Seinfeld episode 10,000 times and will continue to. And still in the middle of the day I need a clip.
"You're living in the past, man! You're hung up on some clown from the '60s, man!
He sure does sound like a hippie from the '60s, though 😆
In my humble opinion, the funniest sitcom scene of all time
I lost it at "You're hung up on some clown from the 60's man !"
George does some expert level gaslighting here 😂
Fun Fact: Filmmaker and actor, Jon Favreau plays Eric the clown.
Yes, I suspected that because of his voice ! Thanks!
everyone knows Jon Favreau plays the clown
I thought I recognized that voice!
@@atif20000atif i didn't
I found out few months ago, when i say Alexander aka George interview.
"How do you live with yourself?"
"It's not easy..."
Just got finished watching this episode. I nearly busted a gut laughing 😂
LOOK HOW FAST HE ATE HIS SANDWICH! 0:34 One minute it's there... the next... it's gone!
Space is warped and time is bendable.
For me, George’s monologue to the fireman is the single best George scene and also the best Seinfeld scene. The entire show encapsulated in a minute.
“Seemingly to the untrained eye, I can see how you got that impression!”
Seeing George and Robin in the restaurant makes me think of George's parents. Screaming at one another one second, "normal" the next.
I like how he comes at george by telling him to get over it! 😂😂😂
George was always my favorite character, probably because it’s based off Larry David’s personality 😁
Course Larry couldn't actually do a better job at his own personality than jason did. In curb he tried and failed.
Stop it frank you're killing him 🤣🤣
Jon Favreau! You can instantly recognise him by his voice.
I feel bad for 7 year old George. Poor kid looks terrified as Frank bellows at him to blow out the birthday candles 🎂 while Estelle screeches at him to stop.
George's justification is so classic
Bozo is a LEGEND!!
You’re living in that past, man!
@@oaf-77 🤣🤣
"How do you live with yourself? Its not easy!" 😂😂
What kind of a topsy turvy world do we live in? Where heroes are cast as villains? Brave men, as cowards?
But she show you push woman and children out of the way.
@@ashokthapa5180 what looked like pushing; what looked like knocking down, was a safety precaution!
To be 10000% honest when George was explaining what he did I would have DIED of laughter every time in this scene😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. I would have wrecked this scene 10000000 times.
I was in a bad mood but T-bone here gets me in the funny bone 😂 😄 🤣
George's explanation at the end ?????? That's the story of MY life. OK i wanna hear a LOT of LAFFS . . . hahahahgaghaghaghagh.
This was the first episode of Seinfeld I ever saw, and still my favorite one!
George being a step dad 😂
15 years later, Eric The Clown kick starts the MCU.
When the kids punch George 🤣
And Eric the Clown clawing at him. 🤣
The birthday party scene always cracks me up!
George went out of his way to knock over the clown, he wasn't even blocking his path. 😂😂😂
Arguing with a clown has to be the funniest thing ever.
"Eric the Clown, everybody...", full of anger. Hilarious.
