What's so great about Seinfeld?

the show just gets funnier the more you re-watch it as well I think. at least, a lot of jokes blur over me at first.

first time watching it through I was sort of bitter that larry david left and found second half of the run too silly and not true to the 'show about nothing' roots. but then another 2 rewatchs or so and I started picking up on the sillier aspect of it (ie. "mandelbaum! mandelbaum!"). or even characters like Putty or Kruger.. or FDR!!

I could take it or leave it. If it's on, it's entertaining, but I would never sit down and think "time to put on a sitcom"

I love how there are characters who never even have an introduction.. like FDR, he's just there for a couple of episodes here and there with no explanation.. I mean, who the hell is that guy?!

I saw Jason Alexander in Dunston Checks In before I ever saw him as George Costanza. it's kind of weird thinking about that.

hahah! YESS

I'm not ready to lay down a cultural analysis like other folks here, but I grew up with Seinfeld and can't imagine television without it. It seemed like it was years ahead of every other sitcom out there.

I had a dream last night that a hamburger was eating ME

I think of that episode every damn time I see a Frogger machine.

The correct question is:

"What's not great about Seinfeld?"

well, "what's so great about Seinfeld" sounds kind of negative, but seeing as the thread is now full of people talking about all the things that are great about Seinfeld, it's sort of turned it into a positive question anyhow : )

it's like that cylob thread from a while back.

/doesn't bother traversing through the potential meinfeld by rementioning his opinion on the matter, but lets just say that i'm glad that we've got a steinvord speculation thread rather than a seinfeld speculation thread.

reminds me of that dumb concept album / compilation album idea of creating songs using nothing but the Seinfeld theme tune samples.

Yup, I think I have all of them. Slap bass and I think horn from M1, and shaker, pop and puh from Alesis HR16B

aww, I thought it was gonna be a seinfeld version of this:

^ that was the first techno anthem that ever really got me.
