Seinfeld, is this a joke? Friends was a decent show but it relied on slapstick and cute humor. Seinfeld was creative and groundbreaking. Larry David is a comedic genius. The characters are great, the minor characters are better than the regulars in Friends (Newman, Banya, Lloyd Braun, Jackie Chiles, Uncle Leo, Morty Seinfeld etc.). It isn't a competition. There's a reason Seinfeld was top two in Nielson ratings throughout its last 5 seasons. There's a reason it is ahead of Friends in EVERY SINGLE "Top Sitcoms" list. It is a classic. It is the defining show of the 1990's. It's catch phrases are in pop culture (yada yada, serenity now, not that there's anything wrong with that, master of your domain). The Finale of Seinfeld was watched by 77 million, Friends 52 million. Everyone knows the Soup Nazi and Bubble Boy, the Contest who knows "The One Where anything".

I will give credit to Friends for lasting 10 seasons and appealing to a large group of people but there is a reason that from 1994-1998 when they co-aired on NBC, Seinfeld's ratings consistently dwarfed Friends.

It is NO contest. (Haha, The Contest). Seinfeld is a better show than Friends.

Any guy that prefers Friends needs a masculinity check as far as I'm concerned.
