    for years the media has subtly implied that it's an "intellect" show about "nothing".
    Thus if you "don't get it" it's only a reflection of you lack of intelligence.

    Not saying the show never had it moments, it does

    but the fact is alot people, particularly some brothers & sisters sub-consciously persude themselves to find humor in Seinfeld

    Seinfeld is rated right where its supposed to be, as one of the greatest sitcoms of all time.

    this sounds like some BS
    seinnfeld's humor is based on the funny nuances of every day life...nothing more

    nah, nothing but truth

    like I said, the show has it's moments, but over the years it's been (intentionally) build up as one of the funniest ever.

    that's a negative.

    a funny show about "nuances of every day life"

    That's purley because of the NBC limitations to HBO yo.

    "? you Larry" is a lot funnier than "Hello Newman"

    its been build up to be one of the funniest because the ratings backed it up. its a classic show that has stood the test of time to the point that its syndication is bringing in NEW fans. there are people who werent even old enough to comprehend the shows humor who love the show now in their adult life. seinfeld uncensored would be better than Curb anyday and I've watched every curb season.
