Concept

What was the concept of Seinfeld when they first started making it?

A show about nothing?

Ramsey.

The original shows were based on Jerry's personal observational humour. All those little things we go about doing and deciding day by day without really thinking about them. When they are pointed out to us they seem really funny. And Jerry is brilliant at holding that mirror up to us. No message, no philosophy - just down home simple humour. Complementing Jerry's "did you ever notice..." insight items was Larry David's "off the wall" writing which is grounded in the classics. So this interplay of Jerry's "shows about nothing" - "so much fluff" as he describes himself (The Ex-Girlfriend) with Larry David's knowledge about intelligent character and plot development created one of the best (the best Jerry, the Best!) comedy shows ever written.

That's my take on it.

This just about covers it. And nicely, I might add.

I think the *original* concept, like before the show was even cast, was an exploration into how a stand up comedian gets his material.
