Summary: 5 Stars
Imo, Seinfeld seasons 1 & 2 are the best. Here the characters are still searching for the right form, and it is not as unrealistic as the later seasons.DVD Review: Seinfeld is a great gift!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This item was a great Christmas gift!!!! I never watched it, but the service was great and I recieved it in the most timely fashion.DVD Review: Mind-numbingly BAD.
Summary: 1 Stars
Jerry is attractive but he's not funny in the slightest. OK. I've watched maybe 3 episodes in full and 20 or so in pieces because I can't tolerate it nor the characters on it...save for the bald guy and the girl, Elaine? Anyway, the ONE episode I saw was actually funny. Don't remember which one that was, it could have been the one where Jerry and Elaine (?) went on a date (not with each other, with other people) and it was more or less funny throughout. I think that the short bald guy can be hilarious, his friend with the hair, ridiculous, and the girl accusingly-funny.
I don't recommend this show to anyone. If you enjoy comedies, it may take a while to get into this dry comedy which is as dry as Scrubs. I hate them both almost equally. But Seinfeld takes the cake as far as boring goes.
1 star.
DVD Review: Worse Than Unfunny
Summary: 2 Stars
Let me be the innocent child in "The Emperor's New Clothes," and proclaim:
Jerry Seinfeld is not funny!
Oh, I know what you're thinking: Here's a guy who thinks Seinfeld was unfunny, but his cast was hilarious.
No. At best the rest of the cast was mildly amusing (although Jason Alexander is a talented actor, he is not necessarily hilarious, hence the two stars).
Because, when it comes down to brass tacks, "Seinfeld" *was* a "show about nothing" -- in every sense of the word:
The contrived semi-plots, with choppy one-liner segments.
The cloying, annoying, ejaculatory bass riffs between shots.
Jerry Seinfeld posing as this hipster: Yeah, right, a hipster with a ridiculous bushy mullet. At best, Seinfeld was an Upper West Side Jewish version of Jeff Foxworthy. You want to know why people think Jewish men are smug, metrosexual wimpish know-it-alls? I submit Jerry Seinfeld as "Exhibit A." If a WASP played a Jew such as Seinfeld, he'd be accused of bigoted racial slurs against the Jewish people. Grating, like fingernails down a chalkboard.
Oh, and speaking of freakish hair-do's: Is there anyone alive who thinks that Michael Richards as Kramer would even inspire a single chuckle if shorn of that ridiculous Brillo-pad hair? Within three episodes, he'd have been out of the door, after having been reduced to haranguing black hecklers in the studio audience: He's a [n-word]! He's a [n-word]!
Pathetic.
And, "Elaine"?
Puleeze! She makes Gwyneth Paltrow look like Kate Winslet, she is so flat.
Yawn.
Description of Seinfeld - Seasons 1 & 2
"Double Dip" "man hands" "no soup for you" "not that there's anything wrong with that" "yada yada yada" the show that forever changed the American vernacular has finally arrived on DVD! The original network episodes have been remastered in high definition for the best possible picture and sound quality! Relive your favorite Seinfeld moments with all 18 episodes from the first and second seasons in a 4-disc set!System Requirements:Starring: Jerry Seinfeld Jason Alexander Julia Louis-Dreyfus Michael Richards Directed By: Art Wolff (Pilot) Tom Cherones (Seasons 1 and 2) Running Time: 437 Min. Copyright Sony Pictures Home Entertainment 2005Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating:?NR UPC:?043396053410 Manufacturer No:?05341Nothing? Seinfeld is a show about everything! It's about the appeal of the posse and coma etiquette. It's about importing and exporting. It's about sneaking a peek, and seeing the baby. It's about this, that, and the other. TV Guide ranked Seinfeld the best TV series of all time. It has become the master of its syndication domain. Its most devoted fans can quote each episode chapter and verse; their absorption of each scene's minutiae anything but a trivial pursuit. With such fervent devotion to the show, and demand for its DVD release, series creators Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David could have easily just OK'd a bare-bones set containing nothing but the episodes. Not that there would have been anything wrong with that, but instead, the creative team came together to create extensive and encyclopedic features that make this four-disc set buy-worthy. The candid and revealing audio commentaries and interviews, deleted scenes and original episode promos, and optional "Notes About Nothing" pop-ups are as irresistible as a Drake's coffee cake.
It's always fun and instructive to return to the humble beginnings of a series that became a pop culture benchmark. Here are Kramer's first not-so-grand entrance, Jerry's first contemptuous "Hello, Newman," and Elaine's first "Get Out!" shove. But what is most revelatory about these episodes from the first two seasons is what Jason Alexander, during his commentary for the episode "The Revenge," calls a "sweet quality" that somehow redeems these characters' more base instincts. Consider the scene in which Jerry gives a freshly unemployed George some career guidance, or Jerry and Elaine's palpably affectionate banter throughout. The "Inside Look" episode intros offer fascinating insights into this singular show that subverted sitcom convention with such now-classic episodes as "The Chinese Restaurant," in which Jerry, George, and Elaine wait in vain for a table. We learn, for example, why movie tough guy Lawrence Tierney, who guest starred in "The Jacket," never reprised his role as Elaine's father. All of this, of course, is yadda yadda yadda to Seinfeld fans, whose patience for the show's DVD debut has been amply rewarded. As Elaine screams in the third-season episode, "The Subway," "It's not nothing, it's something!" --Donald Liebenson
