Citizen Kane was good for the time when the average IQ was about 10 points lower. Its simplistic dreck.

Its like thinking Chess is some grand strategy game. Yea, maybe in the middle ages when most people were borderline retarded. Its mainly played by elementary school children nowadays. Try a real strategy game like HOV4 or Hearthstone.

The joke was that they were all terrible people who never learned from their mistakes. Well except Kramer; he wasn't completely awful but still never learned. More of a huge weirdo than anything. Jerry wasn't a good comedian but never really learned to be better; he was also a selfish, womanizing poo poo nugget. George was impossibly neurotic, lazy, and sabotaged himself at every turn. Elaine was just...Elaine. Remorselessly selfish and out to get petty revenge at even the tiniest slight.

Part of the humor of the show was watching them overreact to absolutely everything in their lives. They'd constantly act in absurdly selfish ways but always end up at a loss at the end. The writers of the show really only had one rule; no growth, no lessons. The characters were permanently awful people.

Seinfeld is just like Friends. Shows about incompetent white people prone to failure and stupid drama living in a city. All the incompetent white people prone to failure and stupid drama living in a city latched on to them both like leeches.

It's an infinite improvement over Gilchrist, not yet an improvement over Bushmiller, and probably never will be.

I've always loved how the boss guy is so proud of Major Iceborg.

How loving boring we're the old days if school age children amused themselves by playing with puddles? Or at least it didn't seem weird to put it in a cartoon?

No it isn't, you just haven't watched sitcoms since 1996.

There was a period of like two years when The Office, 30 Rock, Parks and Recreation, and Community ran back-to-back-to-back-to-back on Thursday nights on NBC and that to me is basically the best block of TV that ever did or will exist.

I had video games and porn the sears catalog and I still loved to ride my bmx through giant gently caress-off puddles in parking lots where the storm drain was clogged.
