--------------------------
Factoids: (IMDB, Moviemistakes)
1. In the Glasses episode George eats Rold Gold pretzels, a product that actor Jason Alexander went on to do commercials for.
2. In the Puffy Shirt episode it marked the utterance of Jerry's famous line "But I don't wanna be a pirate!" It was later modified in several subsequent episodes ("I don't wanna be a cowboy!" in The Mom and Pop Store; "I don't wanna be Switzerland!" in The Label Maker; and "I don't wanna be a 32!"(pant size) in The Sponge).
3. In the Sniffling Accountant episode Christa Miller had a brief role as a bra saleswoman, which George touched her briefly. She would later play a different role as George's girlfriend in season 6's "The Doodle."
Comments: B (3.8.07) This volume had decreased in the amount of extras, and there wasn't a short bit about the season overview either, and the bloopers were awesome.
