List of episodes
"The Invitations" is the 24th and final episode of the seventh season of Seinfeld and the 134th overall episode.[1] It originally aired on NBC on May 16, 1996,[1] and was the last episode written by co-creator Larry David before he left the writing staff at the end of this season (returning only to write the series finale in 1998). This episode was directed by Andy Ackerman.
As the season finale, "The Invitations" resolves the season 7 story arc of George's engagement to Susan. With the wedding day drawing near, George still does not want to marry Susan, and his friends collaborate with him in a last desperate bid to end the engagement. Meanwhile, Jerry becomes engaged as well when he falls in love with a woman who shares all his interests and personal quirks.
The black comedy of the engagement story arc's resolution was controversial. In 2005, TV Guide ranked the episode #8 as part of its "Top 100 Most Unexpected Moments in TV History".[2]
