Seinfeld:One of the best shows ever?

What do you think?

I say it IS the best show ever!

I completely agree.

I know im going to get flamed for this, but I think Seinfield sucks

*waits for "trolling" moderation*

I watch the reruns at night all the time. The characters themselves arent drop dead funny, but they're interesting because they have qualities that most of us would get slapped for. (Jerry is shallow when it comes to women, George is obnoxious, etc). The show has situational humor, meaning the characters find themselves in any number of odd locations/events, etc, moreso than the characters being funny.Allicrombie

Its okay but Curb Your Enthusiasim is much better. Larry David FTW.mattykovax

I love Curb Your Enthusiasm, but I don't think it's better than Seinfeld.

I laughed so hard when I first saw this.

Yes, it is one of the best shows ever in my opinion. Not THE best...but up there. There are NO bad episodes. Theres no point in which the series went downhill and went off the air because of bad press. They stopped in their prime, and thats why itcontinues to beone of the greatest shows ever. I think it'll be on for generations to come.

Top 5 (comedy)

1. Seinfeld
2. Scrubs
3. Arrested Development
4. South Park
5. The Office
6. (runner up is It's Always Sunny in Philidelphia - my GF can attest to that she got me on the show)

Nope,I don't like Stainfeld. Something about him gets on my nerves.

Definitely one of the best shows ever. Consistently funny

Not sure about the best, but one of my all-time favorite shows and very deserving of the praise it gets. Strangely Seinfeld was my least favorite character on the show.FatalFantasy206

Yes. Please do not try to act cool by saying it isnt.

Seinfeild is one of the greatest shows of all time. lol Kramer was in one of my drivers ed videos a couple weeks ago, it was funny. Newman is my favorite characters though.:lol:

[QUOTE="jfcundiff"][QUOTE="xaos"] I'm not :( I just have watched like 4 episodes and never really felt like laughing. "HAHAHA SOUP NAZI OMG."xaos

[QUOTE="xaos"][QUOTE="jfcundiff"] You could not laugh during the Soup Nazi episode? That is crazy!MarioRPGer

[QUOTE="xaos"] Too broad for me; I'm more of a wordplay guyxaos

[QUOTE="xaos"][QUOTE="MarioRPGer"]Wow. I just love how you are basing the entire series on 4 episodes.

MarioRPGer

Do I seriously have to watch the entire series before I can decide if I want to watch the entire series? I saw 4 episodes, including what seems to be widely considered one of the defining ones of the series, and barely cracked a smile. I'm just saying it's not my cup of tea, not that it or people who like it are bad. Are you really invested in arguing whether or not I like the show?xaos

[QUOTE="xaos"][QUOTE="MarioRPGer"]no, i just laughed at how you said you were more of a wordplay guy when a good part of the shows humor consists of clever wordplay.jfcundiff

[QUOTE="jfcundiff"][QUOTE="xaos"] Can you give an example? I'm referring to Aaron Sorkin-type stuff; the thing that immediately popped into my head with Seinfeld doing wordplay is stuff like the guy thinking the woman's name is "Mulva" or the "can't double dip the chip" guy, neither of which is funny to me.xaos

one of the best shows ever but one of themost disapointing finals imo

Not a hardcore fan, but it can be very funny, definitly one of the best.

I can't stand Seinfeld.

[QUOTE="mattykovax"]Its okay but Curb Your Enthusiasim is much better. Larry David FTW.Allicrombie

He's not supposed to be likable.

And yes, Seinfeld and CYE are two of my favorite shows. My favorite CYE is where Larry goes to the incest survivors meeting, hilarious.

It's also one of the only shows with a laughtrack I can stand and the only one I consider myself a fan of. Although I do loathe laughtracks, I don't find they rely on it as much as other shows. There are very few, "que laughter here," moments as opposed to other certain laughtrack shows.

Yes. It is widely accepted that Seinfeld is, in fact, the greatest show ever.

1. Family Guy

2. Robot Chicken

3. South Park

4. Seinfeld

5. Eastbound Down
