Seinfeld- Thinking about watching
Posted on 12/19/14 at 3:36 pm

So, the wife and I were discussing trying to watch Seinfeld recently. Neither of us has ever actually watched the show as anything more than background noise, or seen a random clip here or there.
So, I'm coming to you guys for help. I don't want to try and power through the first season and possibly run in to some rough episodes of the show trying to find it's groove and end up giving up on it. I'd like to get some recommendations of favorite episodes that we should watch to see how great the show is, and then start it from scratch.
What are some of you guys' favorite episodes?

Bubble Boy
The Hamptons
The Contest
Junior Mint
Kenny Roger's Roasters
The Merv Griffin Show
Off the top of my head. All of Season 4 is pretty solid, as is Season 8.

How have you never seen Seinfeld? Its one of the most ubiquitous shows of all time. You would have had to go out of your way to not watch it.

Is Seinfeld on one of the streaming sites?

I believe at the 5 and 10 year marks they have a couple of episodes that give have clips from that time span of the best moments. You really wont have context to go with the clips but I believe that these episodes should be enough to see if you would enjoy the show or not.

It's still as relevant today as it was then

I don't think so. It can probably be rented from Amazon, but it's not on Prime streaming.

Get into a show by watching a clip show? I think that's an absolutely terrible idea and will send them heading for the hills.

It's on probably 6-8 times a day. Just DVR those

I was 6 years old when Seinfeld started. It was never anything of interest to me. The only time I ever saw Seinfeld on TV was if it happened to come on in the afternoon after watching some Saved by the Bell or something like that.
I don't have cable anymore, so DVR'ing random episodes isn't really an option for me.

Gotta watch the first season. It set the tone. I remember seeing it new and it really was about nothing--just guys sitting around talking.
"Why does everything always have to be about me?"

Watch the one episode called "The Boyfriend". Its the one were George dates the daughter of an unemployment officer to stay on assistance but loses the benefits when the girl breaks up with him.
I also believe its the episode were Jerry tells George "You know, you do more work to stay on unemployment then you would at an actual job".

I sometimes feel like I'm the only person that doesn't pay attention to episode names. If I had to answer my own question about favorite episodes I'd never be able to give a name, only a description of the episode...so thanks for that

Seinfeld isn't one of the those serialized shows that you have to catch on and ride. You just catch some random episodes here and there when the reruns are showing. Probably some time in the next week the Festivus/Human fund episode will be replaying. I'd try to catch that.
