I think it's why I prefer things like It's Always Sunny
none of that bollocks, no lessons to learn, no mushy shit... just hate

Does that show ever progress beyond "haha, they're all a bit sexist/homophobic/stupid"?

( monster munch person, man, woman... camera... TV?, Tue 1 Mar 2016, 11:11, archived)

hmm, that's a interesting one. they remain just as crass and hideous
but the quality of the show does drastically improve in the 2nd series when devito shows up.

To be brutally honest
I'm not sure it would've lasted as long as it has without him

Might try it again, skipping over series 1, then.
Think I read somewhere else that it's best from Series 3.

i think there are enough good episodes in s2 to make it worth watching
you've find wildly different opinions about which series is best
( manolith hooray for me, Tue 1 Mar 2016, 11:41, archived)

I'm going to watch one,
then have a good old moan up, if I don't enjoy it.

I'm going to get shouted down for this, I'm sure
but this was the brilliance of Seinfeld. By the end of the episode, nobody hugged it out, nobody learned anything, they all just hated someone or something and left it at that.
( Two Hats 🎩🎩, Tue 1 Mar 2016, 11:19, archived)

yeah I liked Seinfeld and Curb

THANK YOU
god, I thought I was the only one

People tend to overlook Seinfeld because it was around at the same time as Cheers and that sort of thing
but they couldn't be more different. It's like saying you don't like rock music because of Bon Jovi.

George Costanza is an excellent character

I think 'The Pilot' two parter episode is my favourite

( $$ ✅, Tue 1 Mar 2016, 11:27, archived)

There are so many, I don't think I could pick
George is excellent. And his mum and dad...just amazing. The whole Festivus thing is just brilliant.

guys... guys...
i've never seen it
( manolith hooray for me, Tue 1 Mar 2016, 11:39, archived)

I think it might appeal to the part of you that like Sunny
or it might not. Who knows.
( Two Hats 🎩🎩, Tue 1 Mar 2016, 11:46, archived)

Did you enjoy Sour Grapes?
You might really be alone in that.
( monster munch person, man, woman... camera... TV?, Tue 1 Mar 2016, 11:28, archived)

Yes, I really liked that
Larry David, Christopher Guest...that sort of humour really clicks with me.

Each to their own, I guess.
*undesirable event*
*protagonist(s) fails to deal with situation, gets angry*
lol, apparently.
( monster munch person, man, woman... camera... TV?, Tue 1 Mar 2016, 11:43, archived)

That's the most positive thing I've ever heard about Seinfeld, that I can actually agree with.
Maybe not the word "brilliance".
( monster munch person, man, woman... camera... TV?, Tue 1 Mar 2016, 11:23, archived)

I just think people need to give Seinfeld a chance
and not be snobby about american comedy
( Two Hats 🎩🎩, Tue 1 Mar 2016, 11:24, archived)

Sounds a bit jewish. I don't watch jewish media. Soz.

Trouble is, it's just not funny.
Bit of a problem for a comedy show.
( monster munch person, man, woman... camera... TV?, Tue 1 Mar 2016, 11:31, archived)

A lot of people would disagree with you there

( Two Hats 🎩🎩, Tue 1 Mar 2016, 11:32, archived)

Americans and Jews. Not people.

Lots and lots of people.
Doesn't change the fact that they're all wrong, though.

2 *cutaway to substandard standup routine*
3 ...?
4 Success!

I really can't see the appeal.
( monster munch person, man, woman... camera... TV?, Tue 1 Mar 2016, 11:40, archived)

There's so much more to it than that
but I'm not going to be able to change your mind. You either like it, or you don't. Either's fine.
( Two Hats 🎩🎩, Tue 1 Mar 2016, 11:44, archived)

Stop being so bloody reasonable.
It's unseemly.
