It was hilarious but it was a snapshot in time, culturally speaking. It was a time before smartphones, social media, internet dating, uber. A time when friends met and neighbors talked.

I agree with you. My life is made better by Seinfeld existing. We reference it probably weekly around here. But I don’t want to “ruin” it by dragging them all back out. It’s done. It was excellent.

I always loved the Seinfeld show...including “Kramer”. So I hope, if there would be a revival, Michael Richards would be included.

It would be a mistake to start it up again.

It will never be the same, as it set the tone for comedy shows to come.

I honestly hope they don’t do it.

Not the biggest reason why they should not do this.

Jerry, George and Elaine will have kids and Jerry’s will act like George and George’s will act like Jerry and Elaine’s will act like Kramer.

Newman’s kid will look like a potato.

He wasn’t funny then, he will be less funny now.

Are you kidding. Seinfeld had a unique, self-deprecating and sardonic humor to him. It was totally his own, and his show is legendary. Still watch it on Hulu and it's STILL better than 90% of the crap out there now.

Michael Richards had a brutal racist tirade during a stand up routine that really is not recoverable from. Be prepared for some vicious hate if you google it.

Kraemer (Michael Richards) is a no go because he used the “N” Word in a Comedy Routine Years ago, or something.

He is persona non grata and Seinfeld would be raked over the coals for hiring him.

The show had some humor. Credit his co stars and writing. But, watch his stand up routines - he’s not funny.

Never watched the first one...won’t watch any revival.


How do you know you’d dislike something you never watched?

George Castanza was very irritated that people type-cast him in that role. Wah.

First scene of a revival would be the gang being released from prison.

Anyone ever notice that Julia Dreyfus’ laugh on Seinfeld is the same EXACT laugh as Mary Livingston on the Jack Benny Show?

We still watch every night and I still cannot believe how funny it is.

And the cell phones....they are so big!! LOL

That’s probably the best compliment you can pay Seinfeld.

There are episodes I’ve seen 35 times, yet I still burst out in open gut-laughter when I watch them.

A reboot will never be able to top that.

Richards has a racism problem that the PC world will tear them apart for.
