The Nose Job - C This is one of the weakest of season 3. Everyone remembers Kramer's famous line, but one line does not an episode make. Jerry's story is only slightly amusing, and I think the fake chess game is too surreal for Seinfeld. That's more like a Simpsons gag. Plus I just didn't think it was funny. Kramer stealing the jacket was "meh" for me also. Unlike Julia Louis-Dreyfus, I don't think it's hilarious when Kramer dresses up a silly way. The only story that's strong at all is George's, and to be honest, it's a good story but not good enough to hold an entire episode. The best scene is the back-and-forth of George trying to convince his girlfriend to get a nosejob.

Sorry but when kramer wears the tight jeans in "The Wait Out," it's hilarious, for the whole episode.

I like that too. I think the difference is that there is more physical comedy involved with the tight jeans. Plus, it's more plausible that Kramer would wear them just to prove a point. It's a little less wacky than Kramer pretending to be a doctor by dressing up like...something weird...
There's just more lead-in to Kramer wearing tight pants. For some reason, I find this story funny, and Kramer's story in "The Nose Job" a bit lame.

The Alternate Side - A- This is a crazy episode. I actually find the A-story the weakest of the four. I'm not a fan of "loud George", but that might be subjective. I love the bordering-on-offensive Elaine story of trying to break up with a stroke victim. Kramer chatting with the car thief was hilarious, as was "these pretzels are making me thirsty!" Good stuff for the most part.

The Red Dot - B This is a decent episode, but I'm tired of watching it now. It's amusing when a very small thing turns into a big thing, but it's also a bit thin and borders on repetitive here. Not a great episode to rewatch several times, I suppose.

The Suicide - C Four meh stories leads to a pretty meh episode.

The Subway - B I have to say, Kramer's story makes this episode. It pulls this up to a passing grade. Elaine and George's stories are decent, and Jerry's seems pointless to me.

The Pez Dispenser - A This is an awesome episode but it just doesn't feel A+ worthy. The only flaw I can think of is I don't care for the actual pez dispenser scene where Elaine is laughing. Maybe this episode just isn't as engaging or clever or seamless as classics like The Boyfriend or The Airport.

I love The Red Dot. The scene where George is fired for having sex with the cleaning lady is infinitely rewatchable.

The Red Dot- B Has some excellent scenes the already above mentioned, George telling Jerry about the sexual encounter in Monks, but didn't really care for Elaine's storyline.

The Boyfriend - A+ This might be my favorite episode. Every character was used perfectly (including Newman), there are multiple great scenes, no weak moments, an awesome premise, etc.

The Letter - B- A semi-engaging, semi-funny episode, and that's all I have to say.

The Good Samaritan - C I find this episode forced, for lack of a better word. George examining what his affair means, if he's a bad person, etc., feels like it should've been funnier and more engaging than it was. As for Kramer, I'm not a fan of the seizures for some reason. I like his physical comedy when it's not the focus of the scene; when he just trips or whatever and nobody even seems to notice and Kramer acts like nothing happened, that's what I like. Jerry's story is okay, but nothing great. The only thing I really cared for in this episode was Elaine lying about her life to make herself seem more interesting.
