The Cafe - S3-E7

Trivia: In the scene where Elaine is doing the I.Q. test for George, Babu hands Kramer a face towel, and in his reaction to the towel being too hot, he falls over the chairs and tables. This was totally improvised and the reaction of both Elaine and Babu is one of surprise.

The Alternate Side - S3-E11

Trivia: George is wearing a "Broadway Bound" shirt. "Broadway Bound" is a Neil Simon play and Jason Alexander (George) played Stanley when the play opened on Broadway. Stanley Jerome is a neurotic, high-strung character who is constantly obsessing and worrying over details. He and his brother work at writing a comedy sketch for NBC Studios.

The Burning - S9-E16

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, when Puddy is farewelling Elaine on the street, he is standing on the sidewalk and leaning through the driver's window. The following shot when she pulls out quickly, you can see through the windows of the car that Puddy is nowhere to be seen.

More quotes from Seinfeld

Answer: Composer Jonathan Wolff used a synthesizer, although in seasons 7-9, a real bass is used in addition. Wolff also recorded himself making hundreds of mouth noises, pops, and slaps to add to the synthesized bass licks so that each episode has a different theme. The only real "back-story" is Jerry Seinfeld was having trouble coming up with a theme song and talked to a friend who happened to know Wolff. They wanted to avoid that cheesy late 80's sit-com theme song and Wolff came up with what we enjoy now. Jonathan Wolff has also talked about this further in interviews, recently Reed Dunela interviewed him, so for a fuller account of his story; check out "The Wolff of 116th street".
