Early Seinfeld was pretty grounded.It wasnt until later that things get wacky.
it still isn't a showcase for reality...even early on in the series
seinfeld is a conversational-physical comedy exposing societal norms. it's characters are not real people. they are archetypes that allow the examination to commence. they're not real people, and they don't act like real people.
the whole point of the final was to make sure the audience understood this. over 8-9 years people had forgotten how bad/fake these characters were, and the final joke was "holy shite you people actually thought these were supposed to be good people that you cheered for? cereal?"

I get that. Its a fair critique.
just saying girls has only had 17 episodes. if we go back and watch the first 17 of seinfeld, I wonder how we look at it.
to be clear, I dont think girls is as good as seinfeld even on its best day.
