Ah, memories.
Some great Seinfeld moments Duke. And good job at blending them (the putty, jerry's move, junior mints, the restaurant dialogue were from four different eps).
I stopped when the slashers came in, but anyways, nice Seinfeld quotes you have there.
And for the future, why not compare those (quotes) to your own dialogue, since the skits are trying to be seinfeld-esque? That is if you don't already. It could only improve the skits. Right now the dialogue that you took directly from the show and what you improvised is very easy to tell apart (in a bad way).
Anyways, I'll check more of this later because, hey, there's the seinfeld gang in this one! Can't resist that.

It's nice to see that I found your soft spot C (all about Seinfeld!), but I don't understand why you have a problem with dialogue I provide, or improvise, for the horror characters. I don't think it is too bad to follow. It's not like anyone has ever seen these characters interact before. That's the point of these skits.
Of all things, it is nice to see that someone appreciates my blending of "Seinfeld" and "Horror Talk." From the beginning, my skits were similar to Seinfeld...they were about nothing! But, just like how there really is something to the nothing in Seinfeld, I've had the horror characters go places, go on adventures, etc.
Just like you, I love Seinfeld too. That's why, in season 3, I blended in the Seinfeld characters and used them as background characters and had them relate to the horror characters (Jerry has his move, Putty stole it; Jason has his move, his copycat stole it too). That's an element that added something extra to the skits this summer, and I think it worked out wonderfully.
But, I can't keep using this gimick for the rest of my skits. I'll run out of ideas. So, I don't think I'll do the same thing for the rest of the skits, if I do anymore. But, of all things, I think you'll go crazy over this. I'm thinking of spoofing that Seinfeld episode, "The Contest" and have the horror characters try to hold back their murderous tendencies as long as they can.
With or without Seinfeld, I always thought my skits were witty enough with the way I've estabalished the horror slashers and developed them as characters we can all relate to in some way. I think I've done a pretty good job. But, to each his own I guess.

Not necessarily a problem, really, I just think they could stand to benefit from a more seinfeld approach. I know the skits are similar to them (all the skits), but seinfeld was also written very well. A show with that exact idea could be just awful if it didn't have the writers that Seinfeld did. The inanity in Seinfeld was funny. Some of the inanity in these aren't so much. I mean, compare george and jerry talking about superman and how he isn't funny with a group of slashers talking about how freddy doesn't kill many people. Both concepts could be great, but execution-wise . . .
But opinions are opinions and you already have plenty of fans, so you're obviously doing right by them.
And yeah, as for the contest spoof . . .
That's gold duke! Gold!

Nice work yet again Duke! Loved the Seinfeld Gang! The little montage scene was pretty good and the final battle was enjoyable. I could handle another season. :)

Fantastic job as always, my friend.:p I wish I was that talented. Two questions: when's the next season, and where can I find the rest of these gems?

Seeing how all of you are excited for Season 4...expect to see it start in September. I've already completed the first new skit ("Horror Talk XXVI: Friday The 13th"), and will likely finish the first three or four skits before summer ends to get a lot done ahead of time, so that I will be more prepared then when I released season 2 (a few hold ups and delays came along).
The first four skits are:
-Horror Talk XXVI: Friday The 13th
-Horror Talk XXVII: The Big Four
-Horror Talk XXVIII: Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash
-Horror Talk XXIX: The Contest
