I must admit though, I never expected to meet someone who dislikes Seinfeld. Again, nothing against it, just surprising for me personally. I can't say that I had the opinion that nobody could hate it, but I'm still surprised that it happened. The mind is an enigmatic thing.
I wasn't criticizing your taste in comedy. My complaint with Seinfeld was half serious/half jest.
Seinfeld I never got into, say outside one or two episodes. He is really a New York motif.
But, the motif he popularized about "the show about nothing" wasn't really new. Long before Seinfeld "Three's Company" depicted the same misdirection and self absorbed motifs. "Three's Company" certainly had more moral plot lines, but was one of the first to make selfishness a main part of the plot.
