There's A Reason This Is Considered One Of The Best Sitcoms On TV For once, you can believe the hype. Seinfeld is one of the best sitcoms ever to grace a TV set. But what made the show so great, you may ask. Did it have deep character development? Did its episodes have any sappy morals and "positive messages"? Did it have complex and borderline Shakespearian plots? No, no, and no. But this is where the magic of Seinfeld lies. It avoids all the sitcom clichés and convoluted theatrics in favor of a more down-to-Earth, reality-based sitcom. The result is humor in what seems like everyday situations for most people. As Jerry Seinfeld himself pointed out, the typical episode for your average sitcom involves a trip to the mall to buy clothes or whatever, and then looking for your car in the parking garage as a sort of side-joke. Seinfeld, however, had an entire episode devoted to just finding your car in that parking garage (we never got to see Jerry, Elaine, George, or Kramer actually shopping) - and the show, rightfully, got its first Emmy nomination for it. Other notable episodes include the more well known (The Soup Nazi, The Bizarro Jerry, The Chicken Roaster) and the oft-overlooked (The Chinese Woman, The Suzie, The Frogger). Anyway, if you haven't seen Seinfeld yet, crawl out of your cave and watch it. Even though the series ended seven years ago, age has not affected it one bit.
