Seriously. On season 3 and there are SO many iconic episodes. The one where George leaves a crazy voice mail on this girls phone and they sneak into her apartment to delete it LOL
Or the one I just finished. Season 3 episode 6, The Parking Garage. I havent laughed at a TV show this hard in a LONG time. Its crazy. I see all the archetypes that HIMYM stole from this show. I do love HIMYM, but it was clearly influenced by Seinfeld. Same with Arrested Development. How have I gone this long without such a brilliant show in my life? --- !!!!!!!!! https://imgur.com/DzJSPWA ... Copied to Clipboard!

Outdated and meh. The first few seasons are just so...bleh. The outdated is actually what makes it funnier. Its all these crazy premises that couldnt happen in real life. In the parking garage George is like I SHOULD ALWAYS CARRY PEN AND PAPER SO I CAN REMEMBER THINGS. Its funny to see social commentary on problems from the 90s that arent relevant anymore. Makes it more funny to me actually --- !!!!!!!!! https://imgur.com/DzJSPWA ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'm with you TC, I'm watching the show for the first time and I'm currently on season 7. It's golden especially if you live you live in the city.
Also, Jerry and George date some absolute DIMES. ... Copied to Clipboard!

This. there are so many plots of that show that simply don't work in the modern era of cell phones, messaging, and social media. But I grew up in that time period and remember it all so it's hilarious to me. Its also hilarious to see how acceptable racism was back then. That Chinese restaurant episode would be SUPER offensive today. --- !!!!!!!!! https://imgur.com/DzJSPWA ... Copied to Clipboard!

There's this behind the scenes bit where they talk about this topic. Jason and Jerry talk about the women they're involved with in the show. They originally wanted to Jason's George to date more modest women commensurate to his looks a little better. Same with Jerry to some degree. But the executives at NBC were like nope. Attractive women belong on TV. --- You know how fads are. Today it's brains, tomorrow, pierced tongues. Then the next day, pierced brains. -Jane Lane ... Copied to Clipboard!

I don't think there is a sitcom on TV in the last 20 years that isn't in some way inspired by Seinfeld. Like it's easy to watch Seinfeld for the first time now and wonder what the big deal was because we've seen a lot of the same elements many times over at this point, but Seinfeld is what made those elements a thing to begin with and then other shows just borrowed them. It's a landmark show.

Thing with Seinfeld is I don't go praising it out of fandom. It was just too good of a show I see it as a staple. It's been one of my platforms for registering and expressing humor, that I don't go all excited when I say it's funny, because it also painted a picture of the way society functions.
The finale was... Not amazing, but interestingly enough they made the show end in a way you wouldn't necessarily miss it, like how other sitcoms try to make you feel like shit or something. That in itself was a smart move. You never enter a late season of Seinfeld with "oh, crap it's going to end soon". --- Competing every night, both ends, shoot inside/outside, fast break, transition, Monta Ellis have it all ...

Yeah the writer Graham Linehan (who also wrote Big Train, IT Crowd , Black Books) cites Seinfeld as the greatest TV show ever made and said Father Ted was his attempt to recreate it's magic. If you'd like to know more about Graham Linehan, right now everyone hates him for being a big old transphobic bastard. Which if you watch his shows is no surprise, he's all in on Gender Roles and says stuff like "Depressed people just need to cheer up" --- ^ Hey now that's completely unfair! https://imgur.com/yPw05Ob ...
