The Strike (Ep. 910)

H&H Bagels calls to tell Kramer that the strike is off and he goes back to work.  Him and other employees have been on strike for 12 years to bring wages up to $5.35, but now that the minimum wage is up, the strike is off.  Elaine gives a fake number to a guy at a party and it causes all kinds of problems.  Jerry dates a girl who looks different in different light.

George gives Christmas gifts of donations to a fake organization to his coworkers and Mr. Kruger finds out.  Frank, at Kramer's insistance, starts celebrating Festivus again.  Festivus is a holiday created out of the frustration of the commercial and religious problems of Christmas.

Interesting quote: "A Festivus for the rest of us!" - Frank Costanza

Grade: A- (Such a great episode, one that so perfectly depicts the eccetricities of the Costanza family)
