Yeah, seasons 4-7 is definitely Seinfeld at its peak. I think it was a slow burner. The first two seasons are alright and have some funny moments, but you could tell the show was still finding its feet. Season 3 was the first full season, and that's when it really gets going. Season 8 is great (has some of the best episodes) and season 9 is quite good, but the show definitely had a different feel to it after Larry David left. It became more slapstick and some of the stories were silly. I think that's why the latter seasons get a bit of stick.

This is what sets Seinfeld apart from other sitcoms, there's no emotional attachments whatsoever.

It's 25 years since the "controversial" episode called "The Contest" aired in America. A famous episode where George's mother caught him masturbating to a glamour magazine. George, Jerry, Kramer and Elaine then have a bet on who can go the longest without pleasuring themselves.
Definitely one of the greats!
Posted by: Dexton 21st November 2017, 07:55 AM
Controversial? Sure. Arguably the best Seinfeld episode in history? No doubt about it. Very few other shows would even attempt to pull an episode like that off, in today or in the 80s

Very true, it pushed the boundaries like no other sitcom had done before or since. What made the episode so clever was the fact the "M" word was never mentioned once. "The Contest" was such a massive turning point in the series, it basically put Seinfeld on the map!

Maybe from beginning to second season from the end Can’t over is steep the drop in quality was from Season 7 to Season 9. It’s still good but it was quite a letdown from the brilliant 7 years before it

The first couple of seasons of Seinfeld are decent but they are a bit slow at times. The peak seasons are 3-7. The last couple of seasons are still great but they are very fast paced, slapstick and zany.
The writers went a bit crazy after Larry David left the show but I do love how creative the last two seasons are. I personally don't think the quality dips *that* much from Seinfeld's peak, it just has a different feel compared to the previous seasons.

You could tell in the first couple of seasons that the writers weren't sure what to do with Kramer, he was always the outsider of the group. I think it took the writers a couple of years to develop the character, it definitely took longer than the others. In the earlier seasons he's less crazy and doesn't do his famous "entrance".
This video shows all his entrances...

And my favourite main characters are:
1. Kramer 2. George 3. Elaine 4. Jerry
I love all the main characters, and whilst season 1 is the weakest one, it still isn't too bad as first seasons go.
Posted by: Seinfeld 21st September 2018, 05:30 AM
1. Season 7 - I love the George/Susan arc, just so many brilliant episodes. Spongeworthy. NO SOUP FOR YOU!!! 2. Season 5 - So many classic moments. Is anyone here a marine biologist? I WAS IN THE POOL! Do women know about shrinkage? 3. Season 4 - The Jerry pilot story arc is great. But are you still master of your domain? I'M OUT! Not that there's anything wrong with that. 4. Season 8 - So many great episodes. Little kicks, bizarro Jerry and yada yada yada... 5. Season 3 - The first time we see Newman, a fantastic season overall. I think it moved. THESE PRETZELS ARE MAKING ME THIRSTY!!! 6. Season 6 - A very consistently strong season, but it doesn't seem to have as many strong/memorable episodes as S4, S5 and S7. It doesn't have as many catchphrases either. 7. Season 9 - This is still a very good season, and it's probably better than 90% of other sitcoms, but it's just "above average" by Seinfeld's standards. Festivus. SERENITY NOW! 8. Season 2 - A decent season. An improvement on the first season. 9. Season 1 - It's alright I suppose. Nothing special though, let's be honest.
1. George - Absolutely brilliant. Simply the greatest sitcom character of all time. 2. Kramer - A fantastic physical comedian. Genius. 3. Elaine - By far the best female sitcom character ever. Love her to bits. 4. Jerry - I really like his stand up more often than not. Maybe the most sane character in the series.
Newman is the best recurring character, although Frank and many others are brilliant too.

I can’t rank the seasons off the top of my head, but I generally enjoy the middle few rather than the first or last
Elaine is fully my favourite character, helped in part because Julia is an amazing actress and I adore her in everything she does (Veep especially ). George is probably a close second though. Kramer has some great moments but some of his gags got a bit old eventually, same for Jerry.

Seinfeld was All about the writing and plot, that's why it holds up so well. Frasier was similar in that regard as well. The likes of Friends and Will & Grace relied more heavily on character development and massive guest stars than the writing and subplots. That's why neither are anywhere near as good as Seinfeld or Frasier.

By the time this case gets to trial, he'll be nothing more than a shrunken head. Wilkie: All right, Mr. Chiles. You'll have our offer by tomorrow. Good day, gentlemen. (She exits) Kramer: Bye-bye.

This is a great article on why Seinfeld is so much better than Friends:
Opinion by Melissa Blake Updated 1232 GMT (2032 HKT) August 23, 2019
Perhaps it's easiest to start with how the two shows are similar, since, arguably, their list of similarities is shorter than George's resume. Both shows follow the lives of a group of friends living and working in New York.
But that's where the similarities end.
Where "Friends" suffered from simplistic and generic storylines, "Seinfeld" remains one of the smartest and most unique sitcoms. In the 21 years since its finale, few, if any, shows have ever been able to replicate that same level of magic and ardent fandom. And what about its many contributions to the American lexicon? Do you ever say "yada, yada, yada?" Do you celebrate "Festivus?" Thanks, "Seinfeld."
Where "Friends" gave us unrealistic expectations of life in our 20s -- a sort of hyperreality -- "Seinfeld" was just real. On "Friends," all the characters were airbrushed, beautiful people living in massive New York City apartments that far exceeded what even successful bankers could've afforded. On "Seinfeld," however, the characters had messy -- or not much -- hair, dressed in jeans and T-shirts and lived in more normal apartments. (Though given how little they worked, it was hard to imagine how they afforded even those.)
Netflix have secured the rights to show Seinfield from 2021 in an eyewatering half billion dollar deal

180. MALE UNBONDING
“Male Unbonding" is the fourth episode of the NBC sitcom Seinfeld to be produced, and aired on June 14, 1990, as the fourth episode of the first season.
So in last place, and in my opinion, the weakest episode of Seinfeld is, “Male Unbonding”. Obviously at this early stage of the series, Larry David, Jerry Seinfeld and the rest of the cast were still finding their feet and it clearly shows here. I don’t think there’s such a thing as a “bad” episode of Seinfeld, but this is probably as close to one as you can get.
Like most of the first season and some of the second season, the episode is just a bit on the slow side and not much happens really. The main plot is basically Jerry trying to avoid seeing a childhood friend, called Joel Horneck. Jerry doesn’t seem to like him much at all (he is rather annoying to be fair) and tries to break up with him, like he would with a girlfriend. Jerry even uses the “it’s not you, it’s me”. Anyway, it doesn’t work as Horneck starts crying like a girl, so Jerry says he didn’t mean it and offers him a ticket to see the Knicks, instead of taking George. In the end Jerry gives both tickets to Horneck.
The other subplot is Kramer coming up with one of his many crazy ideas throughout the series, building a pizza place where you can make your own pizza pie. Although it’s not that crazy as it actually happens later on in the series.
This episode has its moments, but overall it’s relatively weak. Horneck is generally annoying throughout and the episode feels like a slog to watch in all honesty.
Posted by: Seinfeld 8th January 2020, 07:27 PM
179. THE DOG
“The Dog" is the 21st episode of Seinfeld. The episode was the fourth episode of the show's third season. It was written by series co-creator Larry David and first aired on October 9, 1991.
So next, we have an episode called “The Dog”. We’re in the third season now and Seinfeld is starting to hit its stride. Unfortunately, this is easily the worst episode of the season.
Jerry is on a flight back home and ends up looking after someone else’s dog because the owner gets ill and has to visit the hospital. Long story short, the dog is very annoying throughout with its (fake) barking and making a mess in Jerry’s apartment, and the dogs owner is almost as annoying as the dog.
A weak episode overall, but Jerry’s stand up does have this great monologue...
“On my block, a lot of people walk their dogs, and I always see them walking along with their little poop bags, which to me is just the lowest function of human life. If aliens are watching this through telescopes, they're going to think the dogs are the leaders. If you see two life-forms, one of them's making a poop, the other one's carrying it for him, who would you assume is in charge”?

”The Puerto Rican Day" is the 176th episode of the NBC sitcom Seinfeld. It aired on May 7, 1998, and was the 20th episode of the ninth and final season. It was the show's second-highest-rated episode of all time, with 38.8 million viewers, only behind the series finale. The episode aired one week before the two-part clip show and the two-part series finale aired. Because of controversy surrounding a scene in which Cosmo Kramer accidentally burns and then stomps on the Puerto Rican flag, NBC was forced to apologize and had it banned from airing on the network again. Also, it was not initially part of the syndicated package. In the summer of 2002, the episode started to appear with the flag-burning sequence intact.
This episode of Seinfeld has more writer credits (ten) than any other episode. As co-creator Larry David was returning to write the finale, this was the final episode for the active "after Larry David" writing staff and thus was a group effort.
"The Puerto Rican Day" was a rare late-series return to a "plot about nothing" style, filmed in real-time, more commonly seen in early seasons (such as "The Chinese Restaurant").
”The Statue" is the sixth episode of the second season of the NBC sitcom Seinfeld, and the show's 11th episode overall. In the episode, protagonist Jerry Seinfeld (Jerry Seinfeld) inherits some old possessions of his grandfather.

Conway), the man who cleaned his apartment, he believes Ray stole the statue. Jerry struggles to get back at Ray, as his friend Elaine Benes (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) is editing a book written by Ray's girlfriend.
The episode was written by Larry Charles and directed by Tom Cherones. The character of Jerry's neighbor Kramer (Michael Richards) is developed in this episode, as he goes undercover as a cop to retrieve the statue. Charles was interested in the development of Kramer, as he felt George and Jerry had their counterparts in co-creators Larry David and Seinfeld. Richards enjoyed how his character acted in the episode and encouraged Charles to continue exploiting the Kramer character. "The Statue" first aired on NBC on April 11, 1991 in the United States and was watched by over 23 million American homes.

This two-part episode aired at an earlier time, 8:00 PM, to make room for the two-hour finale of Cheers, whose timeslot would be claimed by Seinfeld at the start of the new fall season. Approximately 32 million people watched this episode (both parts) when it initially aired, and the show became a major ratings grab for its next five seasons.
”The Alternate Side" is the 28th episode of the sitcom Seinfeld. The episode was the 10th episode of the show's third season. It aired on December 4, 1991.
The episode was written by Larry David and Bill Masters; it was directed by Tom Cherones. The idea for the Woody Allen story came from David's experiences working with Allen; he briefly appeared in Radio Days (1987) and New York Stories (1989). He would later appear in a lead role in Whatever Works (2009). The episode repeatedly uses the line "these pretzels are making me thirsty," one of the first popular lines to emerge from the show, which inspired fans to throw pretzels during Jerry Seinfeld's stand-up comedy performances during the few months following its premiere.
In 2012, Jerry Seinfeld identified this as his least favorite episode, saying the stroke patient storyline made him feel uncomfortable.

109. THE PHONE MESSAGE (1991)
”The Phone Message" is the ninth episode of the NBC sitcom Seinfeld, and the fourth of the show's second season. The episode concerns protagonist Jerry Seinfeld (Jerry Seinfeld) dating a woman who likes a commercial for cotton Dockers he dislikes. Meanwhile, his friend George Costanza (Jason Alexander) leaves an obnoxious message on the answering machine of his girlfriend, and goes to great lengths to prevent her from hearing it.
Written by series co-creators Seinfeld and Larry David and directed by Tom Cherones, the episode was produced to replace a script by staff writer Larry Charles. Charles had written an episode called "The Bet", revolving around Elaine Benes (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) buying a handgun. The script's gun content was deemed too provocative and, in little time, Seinfeld and David wrote "The Phone Message" to fill the production void. Though the episode met with positive critical responses, its initial broadcast on February 13, 1991, was watched by an underwhelming audience of 13 million viewers, causing NBC to put the show on a two-month hiatus.

108. THE MILLENNIUM (1997)
”The Millennium" is the 154th episode of the NBC sitcom Seinfeld. It was the 20th episode of the eighth season and aired on May 1, 1997.
The Chinese Restaurant" is the 11th episode of the sitcom Seinfeld's second season on NBC, and is the show's 16th episode overall. The episode revolves around protagonist Jerry (Jerry Seinfeld) and his friends Elaine Benes (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) and George Costanza (Jason Alexander) waiting for a table at a Chinese restaurant, on their way to see a one-night showing of a movie. George tries to use the phone that is constantly occupied and Jerry recognizes a woman, but he is unsure where he has seen her before.
Co-written by the series' creators Seinfeld and head writer Larry David, the episode is set in real time, without any scene-breaks. It was the first of two episodes in which Jerry's neighbor Kramer (Michael Richards) did not appear (the other being "The Pen"). Considered a "bottle episode", NBC executives objected to its production and broadcast due to its lack of an involved storyline, thinking that audiences would be uninterested. It was not until David threatened to quit if the network forced any major changes upon the script that NBC allowed the episode to be produced, though the network postponed broadcast to the near end of season two.
First broadcast in the United States on May 23, 1991, the episode gained a Nielsen rating of 11.7/21. Television critics reacted positively to "The Chinese Restaurant", which is widely considered as one of the show's "classic episodes". In 1998, a South Florida Sun-Sentinel critic wrote that the episode, along with season four's "The Contest", "broke new sitcom ground".
”The Trip" is a two-part story (the 41st and 42nd episodes to air) of NBC's popular sitcom Seinfeld. Airing on August 12, 1992 and August 19, 1992, it kicked off the fourth season of the show.

”The Revenge" is the seventh episode of the second season of the NBC sitcom Seinfeld, and the show's 12th episode overall. The story revolves around George Costanza's (Jason Alexander) plot to exact revenge on his boss, with his friend Elaine Benes' (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) help, after he quits his job at Rick Barr Properties and is refused re-employment. Meanwhile, Jerry (Jerry Seinfeld) and his neighbor Kramer (Michael Richards) get even with a laundromat owner—who they believe has stolen money from Jerry—by pouring cement into one of his washing machines.
Written by series co-creator Larry David and directed by Tom Cherones, the episode premiered in the United States on NBC on April 18, 1991. Largely based on David's own experiences, "The Revenge" was the first episode he wrote without Seinfeld's collaboration. The episode also contains the first mention of Newman, a suicidal man who lives in Jerry and Kramer's apartment building, who would later become a popular recurring character. As the episode is the first in which Kramer does physical comedy for which the character would become well-known for, some cast and crew members consider it a turning point for the show. When first broadcast in the United States, the episode gained a Nielsen rating of 14.4/24 and was met with positive response from critics.
”The Ex-Girlfriend" is the first episode of the sitcom Seinfeld's second season, and is the show's sixth episode overall.

During the course of the show, George Costanza (Jason Alexander) breaks up with his girlfriend Marlene (Tracy Kolis). Later, he remembers that he left some books in her apartment and persuades his friend Jerry (Jerry Seinfeld), the show's protagonist, to retrieve them. Jerry starts dating Marlene, but once she begins to annoy him as much as she did George, he finds himself unable to break up with her because she has a "psycho-sexual" hold on him.
Co-written by the series' co-creators Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld, the episode was inspired by one of Larry David's personal experiences. Directed by Tom Cherones, "The Ex-Girlfriend" was the first episode of the show filmed at CBS Studio Center in Los Angeles, California (and would stay there for the remainder of the show's run), the previous season having been filmed at Desilu Cahuenga in Hollywood. The episode featured one new set, a chiropractor's office; the remaining sets had been used on the show earlier. The episode received a Nielsen rating of 10.9/17 and was positively received by critics.

Channel 4’s streaming service All 4 will become the home of Seinfeld in the UK until Netflix takes the global rights to the iconic Jerry Seinfeld comedy in 2021.
All 4 will drop the first three seasons of Seinfeld online on February 7 after inking a deal Sony Pictures Television. The streamer will then release one season every Friday over the course of six weeks.
It means that by mid-March, every episode of Seinfeld will be available on All 4. This will continue until Netflix becomes the show’s home early next year.
The show about a standup comedian was available in the UK on Amazon Prime until early last year, but now users have to pay to watch individual episodes or seasons.
All 4 managing editor Charlie Palmer said: “In making it available for free, we hope to bring a whole new audience to a show that has already earned an enduring and loyal fanbase.”
I’ve always liked the fact that the button conversation is the opening dialogue in The Seinfeld Chronicles and is the closing dialogue in The Finale (not including the stand-up of course). Mundane conversations from start to finish

Episode 1 “The Email”
Jerry is dating a publicist who accidentally reveals his email address to Kenny Bania through a group email. Now Bania fills Jerry’s inbox with a flurry of spam emails asking for feedback on his new stand-up set. Jerry decides to break up with the publicist over this, but he doesn’t want to deal with the interaction face-to-face. Kramer suggests ending the relationship via email and avoiding it all together. Jerry does this before Elaine reminds him that the publicist was supposed to get them all tickets to the opening night of the new movie “Rochelle, Rochelle 2”. George devises a plan to corrupt Jerry’s girlfriend’s computer before she can read her emails so that they can still collect the tickets. Kramer says he knows who can help. Someone with a sworn vendetta against email. Someone who has devoted their whole life to analogue mail and sees email as a threat to his livelihood. Someone named Newman.
The plot actually sounds great, very Seinfeld but with a modern twist!

JUNE 17, 2021
Seinfeld Won’t Be Streaming Anywhere for a While, and That’s Good for Netflix
By Josef Adalian
It will not be the Summer of George.
As Vulture reported earlier today, Seinfeld — as long expected — is leaving Hulu this month. The legendary show about nothing will vanish from the Disney-owned streamer on June 23, nearly two years after Netflix paid handsomely to steal away global streaming rights. But in what will surely be sad news for stans of the series, Buffering has learned Seinfeld will not simply hop over to its new home the next day, or even the next week. In fact, industry insiders familiar with the situation tell us Jerry and Elaine and George and Kramer won’t land on Netflix until closer to the fall — September at the earliest — leaving Seinfeld digitally unhoused for a few months. So what’s the deal with the Seinfeld summertime interregnum?
Netflix isn’t talking just yet, so it’s hard to nail down the precise rationale for the delay. In theory, it’s possible the streamer’s deal with distributor Sony Pictures Television, announced in September 2019, doesn’t allow it to take possession of the series for a bit. What seems more likely, however, is that execs have purposely decided to put a bit of space between Seinfeld’s swan song on Hulu and its Netflix debut. If so, there are definite upsides to a pause.
The JFK movie parody with the magic bullet/magic loogie theory with Wayne Knight/Newman in both scenes is brilliant on every level

I know this isn’t related to UK ratings in 2021, but I was looking at US ratings the week Seinfeld aired its last episode. Great to see an almost exact figure for Seinfeld, usually it’s stated at 76.3 million but obviously it’s rounded up to the nearest 100k. 76.260 million is still great of course.
ER pulling in almost 48 million is incredible too!

5 Lamest Attempts To Follow-Up 'Seinfeld'
By: Maxwell Yezpitelok February 11, 2022
When Seinfeld started airing, there was nothing like it on TV -- no other sitcom had dared to talk about the real issues, like penile shrinkage, "no fap" contests, or the fact that Chinese restaurants sure seem to take their sweet time finding you a table sometimes. Of course, once this wildly original show became a hit, several other TV producers said, "Hey, let's be wildly original too by doing the same thing as those guys." Or they tried to, anyway. Hence sad and forgotten Seinfeld-lite shows like...
5. The Michael Richards Show (2000-2000) -- The Self-Hating "Kramer Spin-Off" 4. Cursed a.k.a. The Weber Show (2000-2001) -- A Show About A Magic Cursed Nothing 3. It's Like, You Know... (1999-2000) - Seinfeld In Another Coast, Basically 2. The Single Guy (1995-1997) - The Middle Point Between Seinfeld And Friends, Literally 1.

I think Seinfeld ended at the right time, but they probably still could have done a decent tenth season and it still would have been the biggest show on TV. I would’ve loved to have seen more of David Puddy and Mr. Kruger
Can’t over is steep the drop in quality was from Season 7 to Season 9. It’s still good but it was quite a letdown from the brilliant 7 years before it
