From the Seinfeld episode, "The Pitch:"
JERRY: I don't even want to talk about it anymore. What were you thinking? What was going on in your mind? Artistic integrity? Where, where did you come up with that? You're not artistic and you have no integrity. You know you really need some help. A regular psychiatrist couldn't even help you. You need to go to like Vienna or something. You know what I mean? You need to get involved at the University level. Like where Freud studied and have all those people looking at you and checking up on you. That's the kind of help you need. Not the once a week for eighty bucks. No. You need a team. A team of psychiatrists working round the clock thinking about you, having conferences, observing you, like the way they did with the Elephant Man. That's what I'm talking about because that's the only way you're going to get better.
I was certified insane and potentially violent in October 1991 -- while I was employed at the DC law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld -- by the renowned psychiatrist Gertrude R. Ticho, M.D., who had earned her medical degree at the University of Vienna Medical School, where Sigmund Freud had earned his medical degree and later held a professorship.

The best tv show ever! I have seen every episodes multiple times, but my favorite is the one with the librarian cop named Bookman. The way Curb got the whole cast together again was great to watch.
Wow! There's somebody in Wisconsin who really loves this post!
