Carjacking in a small town????
Fans debate whether a carjacking in a small town during the series finale is believable, with disagreement over how much realism fiction requires.
That's the best place to hijack a car because no one is expecting it. I know. I do it often to support myself.
How do you know what happens in "small town USA?" Besides, Seinfeld is fiction. Look up the word "fiction" in a dictionary sometime and you will see that fiction is the opposite of fact so nothing in Seinfeld needs to be factual or even probable.
Look up "versimilitude" in the dictionary. There's a difference between something being fictional and being unbelievable.
Good fiction gives the appearance of being possible, no matter how unreal the situation.
I live in a small town. That kind of stuff does happen occasionally.
By way of comparison, some of the worst parts of "Fargo" happened in small towns. And how small can Latham be if they have a jet airport nearby?
In
Fargo had bad parts?

No matter, just a pet peeve of mine. If I can't complain about those in a seinfeld newsgroup, where can I?
They should have made the carjacker Puerto Rican to piss everybody off.
LOL!
