The “show about nothing” joke wasn’t started in episode 43. It was a jab by a critic who penned a season 1 review calling it a show about nothing. The show became wildly successful during season 3. This led to the show calling out the critic in a sly way during season 4.

Jerry also turned down additional seasons because he felt he had done everything. He was more concerned about quality of the show over the money he made from it.

Comparable to the story on set of the actor wanted to recreate the psycho scene and it was enough to creep them out for good.

[@canaan5337]

Jerry always said that he decided to end the show while it was still number 1 in the ratings because he wanted it to end it on a high note instead of letting it just drag on and on and on until the fans lose interest the ratings drop the network cancels it. Which I think is a smart move because, going out on a high note means people remember the show as something great that they wanted more of, instead of remembering it as something that they got tired of and lost interest in. If he had kept the show going until it was canceled for low ratings Netflix may have paid 1 hundred million dollars to get 15 seasons of it for five years instead of 5 hundred million to get nine seasons of it for five years

[@srb2591]

Yeah he tried to tell his buddy Howard Stern to do the same but Howard declined . Now Howard is just gonna be remembered as the shock jock that desperately sold out trying to stay relevant with a ridiculous looking wig .

The Soup Nazi was excellent and hysterical. I have so many favorites I can't keep track, but here are a few: Jerry steals a marble rye from an old lady who later turns out to be on the board at Del Boca Vista, the anti-Dentite, Mr. Pitt eats a candy bar with a fork and knife, shrinkage, Sponge-worthy, "not-that-there's-anything-wrong-with-it," Kenny Roger's Roasters, the list goes on. I don't know the Twilight Zone nearly as well, but two cool episodes I remember are the lady who buys something on the top floor of a department store and when she goes to return it she finds out that floor doesn't exist, and the lady who gets multiple plastic surgeries in order to look ugly like everyone else in her society.

[@jacksonmorganfroghin4815]

I like all those episodes you mentioned and it is very hard to pick a favorite but I really liked the one about the moile which included the story of the pigman and George trying to extort money from the hospital where the suicide landed on his car. Kramer, who protected the baby from the moile, was the godfather in that one as well. "Never go against the family, Jerry!" he said in his best Marlon Brando voice. The other Zone I really liked was the one where the librarian was deemed obsolete. The ending was ironic and explosive!! Not to mention Time Enough at Last also starring Burgess Meredith as the last man on earth.

Sooo fucking funny. Thank you for brilliant TV back when there wasn’t a whole lot else to do. You helped shape my own sense of humor, wit, and comedic relief in my own life and in my family. Now my nieces and nephew ask me to “be funny” when we spend time together. I also want to give a huge shout out to Elaine, no one really talks about how funny she was/is, especially for an attractive woman in the 90’s, a time when men were starting to obsess over Victoria Secret models, and there was still a sense that women still had roles at home and weren’t attractive if they were funny.

[@rachaeldangelo1337]

Growing up during the 90s this was my dad's favorite show and would always watch it as soon as he got home from work it didn't matter if I was watching my favorite cartoons he would change the channel to Seinfeld and I just remember thinking that it was the most boring adult show on TV and now that I'm a fully grown adult myself I finally realized just how good the show actually is or was but hated it as a young kid and another reason why my dad loved the show so much because he was also a new Yorker but joined the army when he was 18 so I guess it reminded him of being back home since he lived just outside of NYC on long Island. Every summer when we went to visit his family we always had a day trip to the city just walking around NYC all damn day it got to the point that going to NYC got boring after the 3rd time seeing it and have been there at least 17 times so it was just meh and would have gathered stayed at my aunt's house playing my video games than walk around the city for 8 hours looking at the same sights and going to the same stores year after year and the only thing that really sticks out in my mind was visiting a high end clothing store on 5th Ave and seeing a pair of jeans that were $5000 and thinking they looked no better than a pair of Levi's and who would pay such a price for pants just because of the name of the brand is why it cost so damn much. I did enjoy people watching though since there's a bunch of weird or crazy people roaming the streets of NYC never did see any celebs

[@cindypaczkowski6891]

actually now that you meantion it, i watched it casually as it originally aired on tv as a kid, then the reruns, then the second reruns, then when the dvds were getting out, then on internet and now on netflix. maybe there was a year or two of my life without seinfeld but overall the show has had a constant presence in my entire life since birth
