6/10
I Got Rejected by a Bald Woman
23 February 2018
Warning: Spoilers
George continues to wear a toupee and is set up for a date with an old friend of Kramer's; she happens to be bald. Jerry starts dating a police officer but has to go through a lie detector test to prove he doesn't watch Melrose Place. Kramer begins doing police lineups for cash; he also gets into a bit of a feud with a homeless person after the man takes Kramer's Tupperware. Elaine tries to turn a gay man straight.

Despite the order of my summary above, Elaine is center stage for this episode. Her attempt to date a gay man is the main plot line and takes up the majority of the screen time. It's an okay thread but the baseball analogy relating to it gets a bit tiresome. Jerry's subplot involving Melrose Place does not hold up at all on modern viewing and really ages the episode. Kramer's section is okay but nothing extremely noteworthy. My favorite part is when Elaine tosses George's hairpiece out the window. George's cocky swagger he assumes while have it on is pretty great, as well. Still, a fairly below average episode overall for Seinfeld's standards.
