The star of “Mission Impossible,” Tom Cruise, also placed his massive, 320-acre Telluride ranch with a custom, 10,000-square-foot home on the market for $39.5 million.

It’s weird that both that was used as a euphemism, and that the network censors would ask them not to use it.Ĥ. In fact, the only note the censors gave the show was not to use the word, “Snapple” as a euphemism for masturbation. In fact, Jerry Seinfeld thought that, even if they’d used the word “masturation,” censors would’ve allowed it (the word has been used once before on the series), but part of the reason the episode was so funny is because the word is never used.ģ. Euphemisms were used instead: “Master of My Domain,” “Lord of my Manor,” and “Queen of my Castle.” No one thought that the episode would be aired because of the subject material, but it got through just fine. Despite the fact that most of the episode revolved around a masturbation contest, the word “masturbation” was never used in the episode. The nearly 30 million viewers who watched the rerun is like three times more than saw the Breaking Bad finale, which has to make “The Contest” the most popular rerun of all time.Ģ. In fact, the first repeat airing actually was seen by ten million more people than the original airing, which is pretty much unheard of today.

But, just to refresh your memory, after George is caught by his mother masturbating, the A-plot concerned a contest between the four main cast members about who could go the longest without self-pleasuring. If you don’t recall which episode of Seinfeld “The Contest” is, then you probably have never seen Seinfeld. That episode of Seinfeld is five days older than Miley Cyrus. If you want to feel really old, consider this: “The Contest,” arguably one of the best, if not the best episode of Seinfeld of all time is 21 years old.
