To all those people who give the new episodes "Bad Reviews",

Instead of comparing these episodes to "The Brilliant 4th Season", why don't you compare it to the other seasons as well. I know that the "dreaded ninth Season" might not stack up when compared to the others but when everyone says "the new ones aren't as good as the old ones" they're in reality saying "the new ones aren't as good as the 4th season". And come on, no season compares to Season 4, that was the only season that didn't have one bad episode. Every season had at least one bad episode. Also, compared to other television shows, Seinfeld is still the best.

I compare the "new" episodes to every episode past "The Pool Guy" - "The Marble Rye" - episodes of the 95/96 season. Almost anything past that time period was great....very few "poor" episodes....

And, as I've said before, I DEMAND excellence from this show, and right now, we're not getting anything of the sort.

Perhaps that's exactly the way Jerry Seinfeld feels, the show's no longer up to his standards either. Maybe this is why JS decided to end the show.

Are you cracked? The 1/15 episode was a side splitter. . . get real. .

So what are the "classic episodes", those that are unforgettable in most people's opinions?

   As one of the smaller critics (in terms of the number of posts to the
newsgroup) of the recent episodes of the show (the last 2 seasons), I can say
that my disapproval of a number of these episodes is not due to a comparison to
the older episodes.
   My disapproval of the show is due to the way that the characters of Kramer
and George have gone recently.  Kramer has become a freak that makes wacky
entrances every episode.  I know that you will say that some of the ideas are
funny, but I don't think having a porch in an apartment is funny.  The idea of
the intern was probably the only thing that I have seen Kramer do in the last 2
seasons that is funny.
   George is just combining the yelling of his parents and bringing his
character to new lows every week.  Lodging a complaint about losing a Twix was
painful to watch.
   My desire for the last few episodes would be to lose the emphasis on George
and Kramer and focus more on Jerry and Elaine, with a dab of Newman on the
side.

Good points. Even if we don't compare the new episodes to the old ones, we would find inherent problems with the show. If I had not seen any "old" episodes in my life and had only seen the "new" episodes, I probably would be less critical of the show, obviously, but I also feel that I would find the show to be a simply average sitcom.

Wrong attitude, Jonathan. If you can't trash the show you don't belong here. Watch the next show, find something to piss and moan about, then get back to us.

That's how it works in here (despite my best efforts). [email] (Hammer nail here--> <-- for a new monitor.) (Remove XXXX to reply)

Dave...we have the exact same problem in the Flyers newsgroup....however your "best efforts" are part of the problem. Over there we have the anti-rah rah's who complain about every detail no matter how small and whether or not the Flyers are actually winning. I guess Tribble would be the leader of the anit-rah rah's here. On the other hand we have the Stepfords who think that every Flyer is a god and that nothing ever is their fault. I guess you are the stepford in this group. The thing is, a Stepford is just as annoying (and wrong) as the anti-rah rah's. I won't ever say that Seinfeld sucks, but I also won't jump on your wagon and say that they are all great (this season or any other). I find it really hard to believe that you find them all great. There have to be some that, while you still like, you don't find as good as the others. Personally I find watching "The Limo" to be quite painful. I don't want to hear any of that season 4 stuff, I find season 6 to be the best, with "The Switch" being the best one of all by great lengths.

I loved it. Do you remember when George told Jerry, "but she'll do anything for me"? I can never forget that. I think "The Limo" was amazing.

I have no idea....I just can't seem to take it....I almost always fast forward through it when my tape comes to it....
