I don't even think it's "eh" I think it's a giant pile of shit. There I said it.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

absolutely agree, I couldn't believe there was a thread a while back about how awesome it is, seriously one of the most vanilla, gentle and totally not funny things I've ever seen. Put it right there with the king of queens and that shitty Sullivan and son show. So fucking horrible, jerry sucks. Sitcoms kind of suck ass but I'll take the Big Bang theory and friends any day, at least I can get a chuckle here and there.
It's all about: South Park Archer Breaking Bad
That's all.

Just because it was the best show around at that time doesn't mean it's good, just means there was some shitty television back then.

If you read what I said you would see I said all sitcoms are pretty terrible but I would take big theory over Seinfeld any day. And it's a terrible show? Ok bud it breaks a television ratings record like every year and is by far the most popular show on tv.

I'm pretty sure breaking bad and walking dead beat it in ratings. Also Sullivan and son is a good show although I haven't seen it since the first season. It's like a modern day cheers but I guess that show was terrible as well right?

As did/was Seinfeld in its day. So, if that excludes TBBT from being a terrible show.. The fact you called it gentle and vanilla makes me think you've never paid much attention, the main characters are incredibly narcissistic which makes for a lot of dark themes.
I'd guess you've never watched Curb Your Enthusiasm either, then?

Friends and Home Improvement are truly awful shows. Fresh Prince is indeed a funnier show than Seinfeld though.

No they didn't, Big Bang is number one on that list. Sullivan and son was fucking horrible that's why it got canceled. I don't watch much television but Seinfeld is not funny, you can have your own opinions, you know that's allowed right? Breaking bad is the best thing that will ever be on tv.

I'll have to start from season 1 with Seinfeld like I have with my above list.
Give it a 100% try vs. Catching TV episodes that are jumbled.

Yes archer is the shit. I never compared Seinfeld to Breaking Bad. Compared to the shows of it's time, sure it was the best that doesn't mean it's remotely good or has ever made me laugh. And Seinfeld is dark themed? Okay. I think we differ greatly on the what dark means.

Because no one was talking about Seinfeld in relation to it's direct competitors. It was brought up in a general sense. The only people to bring up Seinfeld in a period setting is those who are trying to defend it's crappyness.

I have many I could call favorite, almost all comedy. In no particular order, probably my top 10-
King of the Hill Seinfeld Curb Your Enthusiasm Futurama It's Always In Philadelphia South Park Aqua Teen Hunger Force The Office/Parks and Recreation Trailer Park Boys Breaking Bad/Chappelle's Show
@MNNice We are all entitled to our own opinions. However, saying "Seinfeld is not funny" is stating it as fact. An opinion would be "I don't think Seinfeld is funny".
As for disagreeing with what dark means, that may be. Personally, I consider totally self-absorbed characters, little-no morals, joking about death and suicide etc. dark.

Yeah Malcolm in the Middle was a funny show. I don't get why Friends keeps coming up as being a much funnier show than Seinfeld though. Pretty much the same premise (group of friends in New York who make wisecracks about minutiae and date half the city) but shittier characters and jokes.

I think Seinfeld is great, but it's probably an acquired taste and I could see how people wouldn't like it. Also, if you're pretty young and catching it these days on reruns for the first time, yeah, it's probably going to be underwhelming.
Still a great sitcom in my opinion, though.

That shit is just straight up brilliant. I think my favorite episode was the hurricane Katrina one where Grandad's cousin and his entire family stay over their house.

Joking about death and suicide? I think we have seen different episodes then, no I have not say down and watched all nine seasons, but when I get home and Seinfeld is on, all I know is I'll be waiting a half an hour until Friends comes on before I switch back to tbs. Friends isn't that funny either but it's def funnier than Cramer.

I second this. I would dig the show a lot more if I grew up with it. American dad is better than family guy.

It's way more outrageous and insulting IMO. Family guy is just cut-aways.

Yeah American Dad is a much better show. Can't sit through Family Guy most of the time, all the repetition gags and references to obscure washed up actors. Jokeless jokes. Big Bang Theory is a bit like that, a lot of 'jokes' where catching some obscure reference is the whole basis for humor.

Seinfield was a great show for it's time. It's definitely an acquired taste with some memorable moments for sure. Been a while since I've seen an episode.
I'm a Netflix guy.
How can no one mention the Cleveland Show?

I've gotta agree on the whole American Dad vs Family Guy thing.
Family Guy's funny, and it's a great show to have running in the background when friends are over, but it's not something I can get invested in.

I'm not too big on the Cleveland Show. It's pretty much Black Family Guy.

To clarify, I am not arguing Seinfeld was a good show or dark for its time, but that it is a good dark show period. Pretty sure the episode in which George's fiance dies (ultimately caused by George's cheapness) ends with him calling Marissa Tomei, telling her he's no longer engaged. "Anyways, I've got the funeral tomorrow, but my weekend is pretty much wide open"

It's kind of dumb arguing about personal preferences anyways, Seinfeld is okay in my book lol I agree tv is kinda just eh.

Breaking Bad is an amazing show but it doesn't have much of a 'repeat' value for me.
It's not a show where I could casually sit down and half-watch an episode like Seinfield.. or Family Guy for that matter.

I just recently started re-watching it from episode 1. Just finished season 2 the other night. Man I'm actually kinda surprised how thick the tension still remains, despite knowing what's coming.
That said I do agree, it's really not a show you can just casually watch again, you know, as far as just watching a random episode here and there goes.
However I think the replay value is still phenomenal so long as you start from the beginning and watch it in sequence...which I'll admit is quite the endeavor considering we're talking like 65 episodes or whatever.

That's not really that hard. I'm a series binge watcher.. I just got through watching all 10 seasons of Smallville (kinda struggling for new series to binge watch these days. Right now I'm doing Warehouse 13).
Smallville is 218 episodes for the record.

I hate to break it to you but futurama is only okay... The Simpsons is about the easiest to watch show, and it's hilarious at times. I've heard that shameless is pretty sweet.

I should check out Warehouse 13 again. Some of that show was shot near where I live. "Alphas" was another one that did some shooting around the same area.

I could be wrong but I thought it did. I got to see them filming this scene with an ambulance crash. Was pretty cool watching it on the show after.

I never watched Seinfeld until right after it was cancelled. I thought it was a great show though. Larry and Jerry are Geniuses

Dude, I'm the same way. Ever since I got netflix, I don't just watch an episode or two of it. I'll start at episode 1 and that's all I'll watch 'til I finish it. I rewatch a lot of shows, because it's hard for me to find anything new that I like. I'm rather choosy.

Fuck anything that the media tries to shove down your throat, even if it is good. I like Seinfeld, but seeing my Roku themed with Seinfeld (without my input or permission), seeing commercials all over the fucking place for it every time I try to watch something... Fuck that. Fuck Seinfeld. I'm sick of commercials trying to tell me what I should like and what I should be excited about.

I tried watching seinfield recently because i saw some interviews with him. He's a very arrogant guy and seems super unhappy now.
I couldn't get into seinfield because I didn't relate to the characters at all.
I think futurama is 10/10 brilliant.
I like american dad and don't like family guy.
i thought breaking bad was pretty darn good, but not masterpiece. It was only brilliant compared to the other crap on tv.

Have you watched any Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee? He seems overall happy. He does seem pretty cynical, but I figured he's always been that way. Not arguing his arrogance 
I knew my list of favorite shows was missing something; Eastbound & Down instead of Breaking Bad (but keeping Chappelle's Show).

It's subjective, but in my opinion it was one of the greatest TV shows of my generation. It was really funny when it first came out. It is a bit dated now, but Curb Your Enthusiasm is similar humor and current. The writing was really interesting because no one else had made a show that looked at the stupid things people do in private but never really talk about. It was genius. Feel bad some people don't see it.
