Seinfeld (Season 1)

Okay, seriously, how am I supposed to review this season? It's four episodes long, and all of the episodes are frankly kind of generic. *sigh* I guess I'll try my best...

Seinfeld is a show about nothing. Jerry, Elaine, Kramer, and George are friends who go through life, and every single episode is essentially just a slice of life sketch about the four. As the show goes on, Seinfeld starts to lean into commentary on society and relatable humor but these first four episodes are just an average sitcom. Some of the jokes are funny, some of the jokes fall flat, but none of the episodes truly stick out to me in any way. The cast is great and there is a ton of potential for the show that obviously gets achieved later on, but this first season is too short and generic to really make much of an impact.

Overall, Seinfeld's first season is short and lacks any high points for the show. It's a solid foundation, but there's a reason most people seem to forget it exists.

1/5 Stars
