i'm with you rockhard. i don't know why but everyone loves seinfeld- i can't deal with it. godfried is horrible too though but he's not rerun on EVERY channel at every minute of the day
i'm not really sure zhuangshi - i just don't "get" the show i guess. i like laughing at kramer but his funny points are few and far between in my opinion. the entire show does little for me
Yeah, Kramer was funny sometimes. But I could never get past the fact that Seinfeld always had his "little kid about to smile" look after telling every joke. He was always so conscious of the camera. Standup comedy is a far cry from acting... even sitcom acting.
It also got old watching them screw each other over every time. At least in Friends you felt that they were actually friends... which gave the times when they screwed each other over more impact. (And no, I'm not calling Friends a great show... just saying even it was better than Seinfeld.)
To me Seinfeld was funny at first, but it just irked me after awhile. I don't think I would have liked any of them, except Kramer, if I had met their characters as real people. The worst was George. That whole thing with his fiance and the poison glue on the envelopes was in really bad taste. I do have to admit that I liked the episode about being the master of your own destiny.

You mean "matser of your domain"...hehe. That was a good episode. The conversation that they have at the coffee table in that episode is priceless.
I still like watching re-runs of Friends. Some episodes are lame, but I can get a good laugh out of most episodes. And alot of it I can actually relate to. Remember the episode with Ross flirting? I am exactly the same way, it's scary.
Nanook, I completely agree with you about the fiance/glue thing. Very, very bad taste. I haven't watched an episode of Seinfeld since then. I was never that much into the show to begin with, but when that happened, I was done.

That was one of the best episodes......Elaine said she was 'queen of the castle'.
It was funny at first, but the idea got tired after a while.
As far as Gilbert goes, it used to be you only heard him in the Aflac commercials. Now, he is starring in the latest. Has got to be one of the most obnoxious voices ever.
