I'M TELLING YOU FOR THE LAST TIME

Of all the comedians out there, Jerry Seinfeld tops my list. Seinfeld episodes are in my iPod, and I can't wait to watch BEE MOVIE.

My sister was the first one to like him, she religiously watched Seinfeld years ago. And I got hooked too.

She found out about Seinfeld's audio CD from the web, a recording of his show entitled "I'm Telling You For The Last Time", wherein he puts together the best bits he got known for, and tells it for the last time.

My sister ordered the CD from CD Warehouse, this CD specialty shop in Greenhills. I introduced her to that place. I used to order my CD singles from them. Too bad they closed shop a few years ago. Their Robinson's Galleria branch didn't make it either.

As funny as the CD was, we were actually hoping that there was a DVD of the same show. We were sure the DVD would even be a lot funnier than the audio CD. We could just imagine his facial expressions that came with each bit.

Fast forward to 2007, my friend Jess (aka The Blade), shares the same enthusiasm for DVDs, comedy, and music. I asked him if he knew about Seinfeld's CD, and he says he has the DVD of that show.

Obviously I had to borrow it. It was even funnier than I thought it would.

The DVD starts with a "funeral", where a hearse enters a graveyard, and "mourners" follow the hearse.When the guys open the casket, it reveals bits and pieces of paper, with scribbles and notes on them. It's actually Jerry's old jokes.

Then it goes on to the eulogy, where fellow comedians such as Paul Reiser, Jay Leno, Ed McMahon, Larry Miller, Garry Shandling and George Wallace join the "mourning".

Garry Shandling even steals a bit from the casket. He figured since Seinfeld was gonna throw it all away already, he might as well use it his own shows.

I had to get my own copy, so thanks to the very reliable Amazon.com (excellent customer service by the way), a guy from a third world country gets his hand on a collectible.

This DVD is guaranteed to make you laugh the whole time.

I've watched it 5 times, and it still feels like the first.
