The War is now finished!
And just to be safe... We'll market this as a celebration of all the Vietnam Vets out there.
(TV Guide listing)
8:30/9:30c - Seinfeld: "The War".
In this special episode, the gang get drafted into Vietnam. While Jerry and Kramer sing away the blues, Elaine gets revenge on her superior and the Great Yambini tries to make his move.
Now, let's see the reviews...
WHAT THE-?!
"This episode shines through as a wacky parody of the trials and tribulations our proud Vets went through, and needs to win an Emmy"?!
DARNIT!
Well, "executives", what's the next pitch?
Slap bass intensifies
Have The Great Yambini make obnoxious pop culture references, probably ones that'll be outdated for it's time.
22 years later, and he's still maximum pink.Got any other pitches?
A crossover with The Cosby Show, the gang run into the Huxtables, and it turns into an Aesop about working out their differences, but stuff it full of humor to make it narmy as possible
Got it.
Anything special you want to put in this episode?
Jerry and Cliff have a Seinfeldian Conversation mimicking their stand-up personas. The Great Yambini and Clair get into a shouting match, and Kramer takes the Huxtable kids out to a fun night (i.e. going around shady characters), leading them all to get into trouble

Jerry is addicted to "sugar" in the episode, which is a thinly-veiled term for cocaine.
It never comes up again.
i did a bad thing / i regret the thing i did / and you're wondering what it is / tell you what i did / i did a bad thingThe episode is complete!
“The Brownies”
Plot: Jerry and his friends are invited to a house party by a family of African-Americans known as the Huxtables. Jerry and Cliff talk about their lives, where Jerry keeps bringing up a shipment of “sugar” he fears is late, while The Great Yambini’s yelling match with Clair makes it seem like Jerry is disrespecting her. Kramer babysits the Huxtables, and helps Jerry’s “sugar” dealer get sugar into his apartment. Everyone gets into trouble with each other, but they make up at the end.
Let’s see the ratings…
Hubba HUH?!
“Not only does this crossover display the madcap energy of Seinfeld at its best, Cliff and his family provide excellent backup?!”
DARNIT TO HECK!
Anyone got another idea?
Didn’t expect that crossover NGL
References made by the Great Yambini in The Brownies:
“Y’know, I didn’t think this was gonna be a Do the Right Thing kinda deal.” (Upon meeting the Huxtables)
“Where’s Michael Keaton when ya need him?” (Upon discovering Kramer’s deal)
“Wanna make something of it, VERNEST BROWN?!” (When arguing with Cliff)
The special intro made for The Brownies was basically the season 6 opening for The Cosby Show with every character replaced by the Seinfeld cast.
Yes, the Apollo theater backdrop was kept in there.
I'd like to thank everyone for doing my game! Didn't think it'd get like this!
As a another idea, we should make an entire episode based on the Great Yambini.
22 years later, and he's still maximum pink.What should it be about?
We see the inside of Yambini's mind, showing off his different personalities in a workplace.
22 years later, and he's still maximum pink.What are they, and who are they played by?
One of them is his repressed side, the side which is nice and quiet. Played by Steven Wright
Got it. Got another?
His dark side, which enables some of his worse traits. Played by Tim Curry
Well, we still need this episode to be bad.
Any ideas?
Yambini will have a conversation with these personalities. It'd be like the movie My Dinner with Andre, except there's no real conflict that goes anywhere. And Steven Wright will do most of the talking. It'd be more fun to watch paint dry
What does the workplace in Yambini's mind look like?
George has been replaced by The Great Yambini, Jerry's 5-inch tall inner voice played by Sam Kinison that flies around only Jerry can see.
I'll still make him go with the hooker.
