"The Yada Yada" is the 153rd episode of the American NBC sitcom Seinfeld. The 19th episode of the eighth season, it aired on April 24, 1997. Peter Mehlman and Jill Franklyn were nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Writing in a Comedy Series in 1997.

Jerry's dentist, Tim Whatley (Bryan Cranston), has just finished the process of converting to Judaism but is already making Jewish-themed jokes that make Jerry uncomfortable. Jerry goes so far as to say that he believes that Whatley only converted "for the jokes".

Kramer and Mickey Abbott double date, but can't decide which woman, Karen or Julie, is right for which one of them.

Elaine is a character reference for Beth and Arnie (Stephen Caffrey), a couple who are trying to adopt, but the story she tells during an interview destroys all hope of adoption: she mentions a time when she and the couple went to a movie, and the husband lost his temper because Elaine was talking during the movie.

George's new girlfriend Marcy likes to say "yada yada yada" to shorten her stories. He tries using this practice to avoid mentioning Susan's death but then becomes suspicious when Marcy tells him that her ex-boyfriend had visited her the night before "and yada yada yada, I'm really tired today." George later consults Jerry and Elaine, suspecting that Marcy used "blah blah" to cover up sex with her ex-boyfriend, and Elaine believes that this is possible.

Later, George asks Marcy to tell him some of the things she was covering up with "yada yada," and discovers that she's a habitual shoplifter. George, however, is still reluctant to tell her how his engagement ended (since George mentioned: "Well, we were engaged to be married, uh, we bought the wedding invitations, and, uh, yada yada yada, I'm still single.")
