Seinfeld Reference: The Complete Encyclopedia

Rate this book
"Seinfeld Reference" is authored by a sitcom expert who penned the most comprehensive reference book that has ever been written about the show. This literary masterpiece starts with a timeless historical overview of the show, which was voted “The #1 Greatest TV Series of All-Time” by TV Guide. Seinfeld Reference also includes remarkably in-depth biographies of the show's creators and stars (Larry David, Jerry Seinfeld, Jason Alexander, Michael Richards, Julie Louis-Dreyfus). After reading the book cover-to-cover, you will know anything and everything about the actors and their private lives.

The next section is an ingenious writing of the shows fictional characters as if they were real, resulting in an equally sensational "biography" of the Seinfeld stars and recurring regulars (Jerry Seinfeld, George Costanza, Cosmo Kramer, Elaine Benes, Newman, Frank Costanza, Morty Seinfeld, David Puddy, Susan Ross).

Even more remarkable is the unbelievably exhaustive episode guide that was written for all 180 shows, which includes everything imaginable: cast and technical credits, guest stars (Babu Bhatt, Soup Nazi, Bizarro Jerry, Maestro, Mr. Pitt, J. Peterman, Jackie Chiles, Kenny Bania, Mr. Lippman, Sue Ellen Mischke), plot synopses, featured subplots, original air dates, and interesting facts about the show or its actors.

"Seinfeld Reference" is an essential book for every fan of the show. If you ever had a question about the show, actors, or characters, this book has all the answers. Photos included.

For Seinfeld fans

This is an exhaustive study of all things Seinfeld. It contains a ton of interesting information about the series, the stars, the characters and synopses of all the episodes. My only criticism is that it is not very well written.

this is a very comprehensive book about Seinfeld.It goes through the earliest days of the show, describes all of the characters and plots, and gives a detailed synopsis. Very well done.

A decent enough trawl through the life of Seinfeld, although the extended character biographies seem endless and should have been better incorporated into the text - this leads to the episode summaries being very light on depth, stuck on to the last quarter of the book.

I love Seinfeld but this book was terrible. Badly written, contradicts itself in many places and completely unfunny.
