Last week marked the 25th anniversary of the premiere of Seinfeld, the show about nothing that changed everything. To some, it’s simply a sitcom that happens to air six times a day in reruns. But to others, myself included, Seinfeld approaches religious-levels of reverence. There is no real-life situation that can’t somehow be compared to Seinfeld, no gripe too vain, no scenario too obscure. And this may sound sad to some (all), but if it weren’t for Seinfeld reruns, my parents and I would no longer have a reason to talk to each other.

So while no Seinfeld list has been left unturned this week, I thought instead of celebrating the same iconic jokes you’ve been hearing about since the 90s, why not instead shine some light on those underrated episodes often overlooked for your jerk stores, your puffy shirts, your contests, yada yada yada. Join me in this journey as we take a look at the best Seinfeld episodes nobody ever talks about, but should. (And yes… they’re ranked.) Starting with:

12. “The Café”

11. “The Deal”

10. “The Heart Attack”

9. “The Doodle”

8. “The Fix-Up”

7. “The Beard”

6. “The Abstinence”

5. “The Couch”

4. “The Red Dot”

3. “The Mango”

2. “The Lip Reader”

1. “The Cheever Letters”

I certainly agree with you the episodes you mentioned are definitely hilarious. I love "The Cheever Letters" I wasn't sure if they were trying to pick the funniest or best of the series run or who was doing the picking but thought they failed if that was the attempt. There are many more ranking far above the ones they decided on for the 25th anniversary week , Still Seinfeld will always stay dear to my heart. I understand your reference about your parents, my father passed not long ago and he and I watched Seinfeld when I was at his house visiting and always both loved it so much so it is one of the last cherished memories I have of him. He and I were very close and so enjoyed laughing at the dvds of the show. My favorite episode is "The Gum"
