Funniest Moments on TV: The Amazing Race, Jerry Seinfeld and The Office
Attention Seinfeld fans: Sony Pictures released Season 9 — the final season — on November 6. In honor of the comedy classic, here's a tribute to some of the funniest moments on TV lately. The Beefaroni Award: Feeding a horse Beefaroni is not a good idea, neither is yelling at your donkey. The most memorable moment of the Amazing Race 12 debut on Sunday was when Jennifer and Nathan railed at a poor donkey, who nearly kept them from the Pit Stop.
The most amusing moment came courtesy of the donkey, who refused to budge, stubbornly standing aside as the other donkeys trotted by. You know what? That's what happens when you yell at your donkey.
Speaking of ... The Beefaroni Award Part II: So on Larry King Live, the host interviews this up-and-comer — might have heard of him — Jerry Seinfeld and basically asked if Seinfeld was cancelled. After a perfectly timed pause, Seinfeld fires back with "You're not aware of this? You think I got cancelled?.... Is this still CNN?" And so, our funny man showed the best way to respond to a horse's-you-know-what moment.
The Ex-Girlfriend Award: Yeah, so there was the time Jerry was dating George's ex, Marlene, which was a bit awkward. On The Office poor Jim got stuck in Utica, where his former flame, Karen, works. And he was wearing a warehouse uniform. And a really crazy fake mustache. And she caught him clearly trying to hide from her. Nightmare for Jim but a comedy dream for us.
