Starring: Jason Alexander, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Michael Richards, Jerry Seinfeld
Genres: Comedy
The Calzone - S7-E20
Other mistake: When Kramer is at the restaurant, as a favor for George, he tells the employee that he wants "three calzones." Then the employee just starts cooking the calzones. He never asks what ingredients/filling Kramer wants in those, and Kramer never says.
Elaine: The thing about George is, he's an idiot.
Trivia: No matter who the characters in Seinfeld call, they never have to look up the phone number in the phone book. They have the phone numbers to every restaurant, hotel, and business memorised.
Question: Does anyone know the back-story of the bass guitar licks used during the episodes?

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".
