I mean I heard about it back in the day but never watched it, and have never really knew of any friends who did. Started it on Netflix this weekend. It's comedy gold. Launched a lot of careers too. Can't believe it's taken me this long to see it.

I didn't discover it until halfway through season 3. Show was comedy gold but had like no word of mouth.

seasons 1 and 2 are some of the funniest TV I've ever seen. 3 is still pretty doggone good, and although the newer netflix seasons aren't quite as good they're still enjoyable to me. But man those first 2 are outstanding.

This is one of the best TV comedies of all time. Especially given the time frame that it came out.

I need to watch S5. I actually enjoyed S4 more than most did, and the first three seasons are amazing (first two especially).

I watched the show some as it aired, but not on my own...it was at some friends' house and they loved it. I could always tell I would like it, but was sort of lost since I hadn't seen any of it. When I eventually watched it years later, I absolutely loved it. Glad they keep revisiting it with new Netflix seasons too.

The Remix version they did which basically reordered the scenes and episodes from being focused on individual characters through the arc of the story to now being structured like previous seasons moving in roughly chronological order helped a ton. It made it go from just ok to pretty pretty good.

As for season 5, they only released half of it, but that half is really really good.

The chicken dance scene is one of the funniest in the series. Jessica Walter's Lucille always reminded me of my boozy Aunt Helen.

The jokes in this show were some of the best ever. There are things you only pick up after multiple watches.

The best one IMO:
Gob and his $3,000 suit. A guy asks Gob to help him with something. Gob says, “Like the guy in the $3,000 suit would do that! Come on!!!! Fu....”

New scene

20 minutes later in the episode:
Gob: “...cking ridiculous!!”

just do yourself a favor and stop watching after season 3. Those 3 seasons are some of the best written comedy television ever. I still catch new and deeper jokes each time i watch them again. But seasons 4 and 5 are abominable. total trash.
