![]() One of Elaine’s best moments also shows off Julia Louis-Dreyfus’s superb talent for physical comedy. To wit: This pretty early episode when a woman is talking her ear off about her “fiancé.” She keeps asking people where her fiancé is, with annoying emphasis on the word, so Elaine, visibly annoyed, gets right in her face and says in a mock Australian accent: “Maybe the dingo ate your baby.” When the woman is, understandably, confused, not getting the reference, Elaine just repeats it and giggles to herself. “I don’t like this,” she shouts as it goes out the window, “and here’s what I’m doing with it!” Amen.Įlaine loves to make herself laugh. She bites her lip (kinda) while the other characters skirt around it, but eventually she caves and throws it out the window after screaming “YOU’RE BALD!” in his face. When Elaine doesn’t like something, she makes no secret of it. In “The Beard,” George is pretty pleased with his new toupée, but she absolutely hates it. “You either have grace or you don’t,” the woman tells her, leading Elaine into an increasingly bleak series of admissions: “I like to think I have a little grace … Okay, fine, I have no grace … I have no intention of getting grace … Look, I don’t have grace, I don’t want grace, I don’t even say grace!” So to celebrate 30 years of Seinfeld and the woman who made the show what it is now, we’ve rounded up 30 of Elaine’s best moments from throughout the series.Īs should be plain by now, Elaine has absolutely no grace or tact - it’s what makes her special, relatable, and endlessly watchable - but in “The Chaperone,” she’s trying to fill the shoes of Jackie O. ![]() Now, we are lucky to have women like Elaine everywhere, but it’s easy to forget who started it all. The loud, clumsy, sexually progressive, and very lovable Elaine subverted every trope we came to expect from women on screen, not least of all the will-they-won’t-they arc that plagues lesser shows. Back in 1989, women like her were not on TV. Seinfeld as we know it now was made by Elaine. The show was ordered to series by NBC on the condition that they added a woman, and thus Julia Louis-Dreyfus was cast as Elaine Benes, Jerry’s ex-lover and current friend. But what it didn’t feature was what would become its pièce de résistance, elevating it above other shows of the time: a strong female presence. The first episode established some of its strengths as an ensemble piece, featuring Jason Alexander as George and Michael Richards as Kramer (then Kessler) alongside Seinfeld. The brainchild of comedians Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld, “the show about nothing” became an unlikely hit, changing the blueprint of comedy forever with its physical humor, insufferable characters, and memorable rants about the minutiae of daily life.
