I don't like Jerry Seinfeld, the main character, so why would I like it?blindzebra said:If you never watched it, how do you know you don't like it?
I know several people that did not watch it when it was on, that have caught a show or two in syndication and now they are hooked.
It was by far in away the best sitcom ever, IMO.

Jerry was the least funny character on the show, he was mostly a straight man that the whackiness circled.

I am like those you described as well....the first season I did not like Seinfeld so I did not tune in....but I did catch a few of the first season and did not care for it.
A few years later I caught some of the shows in syndication and fell in love with the show.
Like you said George, Newman Kramer Elaine...actually about any of them besides Jerry made that show.
So many great shows and lines.
Great show that at one time I refused to watch because I never cared for Jerry...I am glad I gave it a try after a time because it truly is one of the greatest comedies.
I never got to see the prior seasons of Curb your enthusiasm so I don't know if I would even have a clue to the show now...but I may start watching it as I have heard nothing but great reviews from people like you raving about it.
