Trivia:

Just as Jerry has a statue of Superman in his apartment, Kevin, The Bizarro Jerry has a statue of Bizarro Superman in his apartment, just to the right of the apartment door.

Goofs:

Boom mic visible: Near the end of the show when Kevin opens the door to his apartment to let Elaine in, the shadow of the boom mic can be seen moving at the top of the doorway before she walks in.

Very bizarre.

The Plot: Elaine breaks up with her boyfriend Kevin and becomes friends with him. She meets his friends, and they are the exact opposite of Jerry, George, and Kramer. Jerry dates a beautiful woman with man hands. George uses a picture of the woman with man hands and pretends it was Susan so then he can hang out at a night club. Kramer gets a job but doesn't actually work there.

The Bizarro Jerry is a classic episode. There are so many memorable things in this episode. To me, especially the man hands. It's funny watching Elaine visit the bizarro world. Because his friends look kind of like her friends, and all of the furniture in Kevin's apartment is on the opposite side. The bizarro Jerry is very odd and funny. Great episode.
