Maybe an episode about an minor pursuing Elaine written by someone who’s ok with dating a minor when he was 35 should be raising questions. Or when they had an episode pushing Tort reform when they made fun of the woman who was burnt by scolding hot McDonalds coffee.
Seinfield, both the character and person, is just a selfish, unsympathetic person and we’re suppose to view the world though. I’m glad he’s being called out for his shallow snark. This has been a long time coming.
The whole show was people being shallow characters. That was the point.
In fairness on the coffee thing, few people have heard the whole story, even now. I think most people today still believe the story was “woman sues because coffee was hot and she got a little burned, and the jury went nuts” and don’t know or care about the actual details.
Growing up with Seinfied and it’s fans, it’s asshole power fantasy written by rich assholes. All the biggest fans that I know from back then are big Trump supporters now. If that was the writer’s intention, the watchers didn’t get it. Jerry Seinfied going anti-woke is so incredibly on brand, I wonder why it surprised anyone.
