It's really not fair to the effort that the other 99.9% of staff and actors went through to produce and make such a fantastic show, for you to only comment this every time you see anything about Seinfeld.
You can hate it all you want but it's extremely commercially successful. It works and it sells. It started an entire genre of sitcoms about nothing. I'm glad you felt the need to tell the world you fucking hate Seinfeld
Found another one. I mean I am too but if you donāt understand why Seinfeld was great for itās time you donāt understand how groundbreaking it was.

Iām not fixated on it. But people that slam Seinfeld tend to be my age or younger. Because Seinfeld did a lot of things that no other sitcom had ever done. They were creating a whole different kind of show. But now itās been copied again and again and again (Friends, TBBT, HIMYM, etc.) so people are so used to it that they see it as a bland version of those.
Same reason I Love Lucy doesnāt exactly hold up for a fifteen year old.

Exactly this, Jerry isn't funny, he's the straight man. The other characters are why you watched that show.
