Too much darkness

[@brianscott9906]

How this list doesn't contain the "Junior mint" episode is beyond me. Not nearly #1 but should be in the mix and it was hilarious. 😂

[@jcj268]

😳 I’m glad i never watched this show

[@jimmymurphy898]

Susan's death was dark but also absolutely hilarious. Especially the nonchalant reaction of George and everyone else afterwards.

Seinfeld set the standard for modern day dark humor with its brilliant, comedic writing and perfect cast of characters. No other comedies at the time were uncompromising with their bold, hilarious take on real world dilemmas. Refusing to become a stretched out emotional event for the audience and instead always remaining pure to making people laugh. Seinfeld is the greatest sitcom of all time.

[@josefk7437]

The Soup Nazi was pretty dark. Elaine ruined his business because he was mean.

[@jackambrose2762]

I’d say George has the most blood on his hands out of the main four. He accidentally killed Peterman’s mother with one word, pulled out Neel’s IV line, and we all saw what number 1 is.

I always thought Babu was too hard on Jerry, because his business was already failing hence why Jerry made the suggestions in the first place. Not only that Jerry got him an apartment and job, it wasn't his fault the mailman put his paperwork in the wrong adress box, thats on the post office. Babu needs to get over himself.

[@justaguy7230]

Agreed

[@nicktaylor2657]

Funny to see Jerry's snugness for helping Babu blow up in his face😊

Spoiler Alert?! The show ended 25 years ago!

[@WatchMojo]

[@shitpostmalone5341]

While I would never get upset over spoilers for a sitcom that ended when I was a young child, I am just now watching through Seinfeld for the first time 😂

[@DiegoRodriguez-cs1ow]

Someone tell this guy just cause something came out years ago doesn’t mean we’ve all seen it haha

[@Themachomanic]

I just blasted through it for the first time ever this month

[@theseifexperience6863]

@@DiegoRodriguez-cs1owwhile true that’s your problem. the show’s been out for long enough to where you can see it if you want

[@josefk7437]

I thought Jerry getting a Cadillac for his father was dark. That gift caused a lot to go wrong for him. Killing Miss Rhode Island's doves was also very dark.

[@kittylover62]

The doves were an accident on Jerry's part. He didn't know they were for an act

[@randolphpinkle4482]

That was unintended consequences. Some of these dark moments had more to do with a lack of morality and a hefty dose of nihilism.

[@skwisgarskwigelf7191]

Without the laugh track the Crazy Joe Davola scene would have been more like a scene from criminal minds

[@alexwashbrook3172]

No laugh track it was a live audience

[@360entertainment2]

In a lot of ways I feel like Seinfeld was used the as a blueprint for what would eventually become It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, the characters are even similar except they’re taken up to 11 in some cases. Dennis is practically Jerry but is much more of a sociopath. Dee is Elaine but with an inferiority complex. Mac is George and shares so many of his characteristics it’s insane. Frank and Charlie share Kramer’s role split down the middle, Charlie is the more spontaneous side while Frank shares his fondness with her rich quick schemes but is much more successful in his endeavors!

[@earlleeruhf3130]

ASP is Seinfeld on Crack.

[@spencecallis301]

I might have missed it. But that line that Jerry says to Elanie that men only hit woman that they know is pretty dark too. haha! But very funny in the episode.

[@chemsplosionchemistryvideo9485]

All of these instances are hilarious. The problem with “it hasn’t aged well” is that shows that many people do not have a sense of humor and can’t separate comedy from real life.

[@sergoldenhandthejust1495]

0:37 haha Uncle Junior Soprano's lawyer

[@batgurrl]

Susan’s death was dark but seemed ‘necessary to the story line’ in a way. I have used a manual wheelchair since the 90s I still laughed hysterically when number 10’s went out of control downhill with her screaming

[@BigFella117]

Anytime a comedy with lighthearted moments gets serious or dark, it often catches me off guard

[@thedraftingax5963]

Same, me too.

[@randolphpinkle4482]

That might say more about your sense of humor than the comedy.

[@BlenderStudy]

Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! The #1 spot on my list is when George 'the hand model' grabbed a hot iron. 🤣

[@Rafael26926]

Thats not dark

[@ReynaReactsandReviews]

The thumbnail scares me.

[@elijahdubois7902]

Despite this show being funny and hilarious, it does have some sad and dark moments.

[@justaguy7230]

George was absolutely right in getting the hospital to pay. They fucked up. I would have sued them.

[@benhuether5474]

You forgot to mention The Lopper as an honorable mention.

[@sethparsons448]

The Cuban guys had nothing to do with the swinging an axe at the Asian guys

[@DehumanizingSounds]

Screw that I’m on George’s side. He escaped under their watch. Leapt onto his car. Why should he be responsible for the damages?

[@truthhurts3524]

Spoiler warning for Seinfeld 😂😂

[@brianban110]

This show is a lot more fucked up than people realize and I love it for it😅. You can see the Larry David writing even in Curb your enthusiasm

[@spartanknight2976]

Suprised the Bubble Boy ep was not on this list

[@lonellfletcher]

Am I the only one who realizes that the main characters' ignorance and insensitivity were the whole point of the show?

[@maxwellemery9179]

That's why the finale was so genius.

[@earlleeruhf3130]

Worst episode on Seinfeld is the ending. Am I the only one that is bothered by the fact that 4 people were arrested, tried and sent to prison because of their bad Attitude?! How would they fair in prison? Jerry would get shanked over his Wiseass mouth, George would be passed around like a pack of cigarettes, Kramer would have thrived and Elaine was pretty tough, she would survive.

[@ryanloftis1125]

I agree with you about how ridiculous sending them to prison was, although I think the finale is actually good until they land in Massachusetts.

[@Rafael26926]

I hate the finale too , because they Made laught of the audience Thinking Jerry and George Will do the Pilot again and then , they got arrest

[@mathieuleader8601]

the makeup on the Perriot in the thumbnail is superb

[@Phoenix85006]

I thought the Joe Davola episode was the darkest 😮

[@leviharrison1545]

#7 "The gag of Jerry drugging someone for his own interests has not aged well." No... that can't be!! It couldn't be that that might be the point...

I actually think George was justified for seeking repayment for his car The hospital was responsible for the suicide of the mental patient landing on his car Why should he have to pay?

George had every right to recompense. The hospital's security was lax.

[@mauricecharles4811]

What about the episode when Susan accidentally popped the Bubble Boy's bubble, even though he was a jerk and was trying to kill George!

[@isaacmontoya9636]

I would have to say It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia thrives off of dark humor like this

[@cactaceous]

Where do you think they took it from? Sunny is modeled after Seinfeld then Curb and the original The Office.

[@cactaceous]

@@isaacmontoya9636 The Sunny guys spoke about it on their podcast.

[@joermnyc]

#9 during rehearsal Brian Cranston got the idea to take a hit off of the nitrous as an ad lib and it broke the cast and crew. #5 because Larry David took the finale, all the other writers that worked on the last season got “The Puerto Rican Day” and it may have been a case of too many cooks. #1 While she’s a great actress, Heidi Swedberg struggled with comic timing. The cast started to hate working with her, so in a during a table read for a later episode Julia Louise Dreyfus said “Why don’t we just kill her.”

[@mncdssctn9110]

I can’t think of any show except Seinfeld (not counting cartoons where characters don’t even age) that has gotten away with their characters staying the same for nine seasons, never having any character development, and never ever wanting to grow as persons (mostly because they never considered that there was anything wrong with them 😄)

[@cactaceous]

Elaine did not stay the same. She got more and more bitter as the years went on. It was very realistic.

[@Denis-89]

I think they all started pretty much decent. It was season 3 that made them nasty. And yet, maybe thanks to acting, they were a bit sympathetic. Elaine especially

[@mncdssctn9110]

@@Denis-89Nah, they were quite dispicable people. Possibly Elaine was a little less bad than the others, but not ”good” by any means.

[@Merylstreep1949]

The white supremacist one is pretty dark but funny

[@samlaurence8576]

would be greatly improved by mentioning Larry Charles wrote many of the darker episodes

[@JJ_5289]

Its a comedy and the audience is meant to laugh at how our main 4 characters react to these situations, which is usually to never learn or grow from anything. Nothing they did on the show is really "dark" when you look at it in context
