Listen, I don't want to poo on everyone's favorite show, and I recognize that there are moments of genius and it was a cultural institution. But I do wanna say that if you don't like or get this show, you're not stupid/lame! It's a really silly show and it's just not funny to some people. They're constantly shrieking and they're terrible people and it's like....eyeroll. Sorry.

Before everything else, let me paint a picture of who I am.I am a 19 year old Filipino student in the Philippines who's main reason of living is binge-watching/reading almost anything that I could get my hands on. From manga, dc/marvel comics, novels, documentaries, foreign movies, cartoons, anime, and of course to TV shows, it has been my creed for at least 5 years now to absorb all that pop culture can offer me. As of today, I have watched (and even rewatched) over 40 foreign TV shows and I could safely say that I have had my fair share of awesome TV experiences and some blatantly boring albeit forgettable ones. Seinfeld, to me, falls under the latter category.While the show's premise is not entirely a bad one, at least not for me, the entire journey from the first season to it's last was, to be quite honest, unenjoyable. The jokes were stale, the dialogue was either unrealistic or just plain dumb, and the characters were just so freaking unlikeable. I actually ended up cheering when the judge pleaded them guilty. While Kramer is just an oblivious and absolutely careless idiot who always ends up ruining everything, he's not neccessarily evil. George and Elaine, however, are two of the worst people that I've ever known. Selfish, prideful, arrogant, and rude, these two would always find it in their time to deliberately screw with other people just because things didn't go the way they wanted it to. I'm sorry if I'm being a whiny baby for saying this, but I don't like watching a show whose main characters are just downright deplorable. I mean there are shows like Breaking Bad, Narcos and Game of Thrones with main characters that can be considered as "bad", but nevertheless, they still have a code of honor, or at least some compassion to show guilt, but George and Elaine never once apologized for being such scumbags. I suppose this sort of injustice can work on crime drama and other dark genres but I don't think it's compatible with comedy. I have always loved sitcoms ever since I binge-watched How I met Your Mother in just a week, and it's my favorite genre since you could rewatch an entire show without ever getting tired of it. Every single time that I finish a sitcom, I would always feel this emptiness after, like another part of me just died, and then I would go and rewatch it again, and again, up to the point where I could actually already predict most of the dialogue. I have rewatched HIMYM for 11 times now, Friends for 8, Arrested Development for 6, The Big Bang Theory for 4, The Office for 9, Community for 10, and Modern Family for 5, and I have no regrets over those several hours wasted on comedy, but believe me, I would never suffer through Seinfeld again, because as soon as I saw the last of those narcissistic jackasses, all I felt was relief, knowing that I could finally move on with the knowledge that Seinfeld was as perhaps one of the most overhyped garbage to grace the earth.

This show could have been funny
this show could have been groundbreaking
this show could have been the icon that all future comedy is held up tobut it failed
and why did it fail?terrible, horrendous castingthe kramer character and the elaine character are slimy and unlikeable, tearing down each scene to some unbearable torment straight from new york city hellin real life, kramer would have no friendsin real life, no one would even talk to elaine

Seinfeld, this sit-com is literally about nothing. In nine seasons, the story line of every one of them is still. They all are immature, selfish, emotionless. It like they stuck there for nine years. And About performance, I liked the Cosmo Kramer and George Costanza. They are funny, dumb character. Jerry Seinfeld and Elaine Benes are selfish, annoying and irritating characters. I also got very upset where there were feeling and expression are expressed when the Julie died. I mean, you can't make a single episode about how George feels about his Julie. You don't have to be funny every second. This doesn't feel normal to me. Although comic timing are good. Expression, catch phrases, daily day to day talk are good, But you have mix it up. Thanks
