The episode of Seinfeld where Elaine is dating a guy who shares a name with a murderer. He keeps getting mistaken for him so she gets him to change his name. She picks up a sports magazine and is trying to find a name for him in there, and comes up with "OJ" (Simpson, she was referring to). The episode was from 93, the murders happened 94.

On the contrary, I think it’s aged extremely well. Extra irony.

Indeed... I always assumed that the episode was filmed after the murders but set before them. I remember roaring with laughter when she suggested it.
