I never watch this show from the very beginning but is there a episode or episodes that shows how all 4 came together over a period of time? Or were they just already cool once the show started from the first episode?

The pilot episode, season 1 not the pilot episode in season 4, does not even have an Elaine charactor and a much different Kramer (Kessler). Second episode she is there and it is explained they used to go out. In the backwards episode Kramer and Jerry meet in the hall as Jerry is moving in. George and Jerry have been friends since elementry school.

What do you mean by the pilot in season 4?

In season 4 Jerry and George are trying to make a pilot episode for their show for NBC. The episode is called the pilot I did not want people to get confused

Yeah,it's the pilot for the first show of George and Jerry's sitcom,They create on the sitcom

But yeah in the first episode Elaine wasn't there.But they we're told by the head office.They needed to add a main female charecthor.Besides the funny watress lady.And at first Kramers name had to be Keslar.Because Larry Davids real life neighbor is named Kramer in real life and he said the only way.They could use his name.Is if he could play Kramer.They ended up going with Kramer anyway though.Because Jerry liked it way more.And they just had to pay him.

I always just order them,from the library.Except for season 1 and 2.I own that set.One thing about Seinfeld every single episode is funny and, no matter how many times,you watch it.It's still funny..All the charechtors are great.But my fav is George.

Elaine was a one-time girlfriend of Jerry's who ended up just becoming one of the guys.

George and Jerry went to middle and high school together and stayed friends.

Jerry met Kramer when he first moved in the building (shown in that weird backwards time episode.)

Jerry and Elaine dated and were lovers. Dunno if they ever explained that.
