The Curb Your Enthusiasm whole season 7 or 8 was about the Seinfeld reunion show and imo it makes up for the lovely finale

F Stop Fitzgerald posted:i mean they kinda are awful and lovely but people act like it was some whole new kind of sitcom character. Sam Malone for one is pretty much worse then any of them. well you see, before seinfeld in the early 80's and 70's, sitcoms still had a gimmick like MASH or Taxi or Newhart where the human relationships were affected by external events such as war or running a business or getting stranded in an island or being airline pilots Seinfeld gave up all of that and just went "gently caress it, let's do a show about our empty meaningless every day lives" and turns out it was more relatable and funnier than watching a guy TRY TO SAVE THE FAMILY BUSINESS etc Arguably the Cosby show was kind of that concept, but it had the small issue of being a successful black family in a racist country and it had a lot of "morality lesson" shows which I don't think Seinfeld ever had one of After Seinfeld, sitcoms majorly gave up on having a situational gimmick, which is why NOW every show seems to be about nothing and still could be funny (workaholics, happy endings, etc)
