The most addictive show ever made

I don't know what show the reviewer below has been watching but it sure as hell isn't 'Seinfeld'! If an excess of twenty million viewers every week isn't a broad based viewership I don't know what is... and humour aimed at upper - elite - whatevers? It's a show about NOTHING for crying out loud! And it's hilarious...

'Seinfeld' follows the day-to-day lives of a small-time comedian, Jerry Seinfeld, and his pals Elaine (with whom he once went out), best friend George and wacky neighbour Kramer. Most of the episodes had the most benign plotlines but the witty writing from Larry David and, of course, the man Jerry made it the funniest thing on TV by a long stretch.

I'm from the UK and while this was never as breakthrough a hit over here as it was in the States, it had an ever-adoring fanbase and was at one time the most watched show on our major satellite entertaiment channel Sky One. I can remember watching the finale almost in tears - sad at the fact it would never be gracing my 14" portable again; and in hysterics at the fate befalling the unlucky foursome.


Thankfully, unlike most shows long since ended, the legacy of 'Seinfeld' is still very much alive with buzzing fansites worldwide and the most successful syndicated re-runs in the history of US television. Other UK fans may be interested to know that the Paramount Comedy Channel shows reruns over here - in their correct order - every day... that's enough for me until the DVDs come out :-)
