Amazon.co.uk Review

Seinfeld is widely regarded as one of the finest examples of American sitcoms, and this long-delayed box set goes a long way in demonstrating why. From the first episode of the first season, it hit the ground running with its collection of oddball New Yorkers: There’s stand-up comedian Jerry Seinfeld, who plays himself; Elaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), his pushy ex-girlfriend; his neurotic loser of a best friend George (Jason Alexander); and Jerry’s wacky neighbour Kramer (Michael Richards).

Co-written and co-created by Seinfeld and Larry David (who later went on to plumb greater depths of misanthropy with Curb Your Enthusiasm), it revolutionised American sitcoms with its cynical and mature comedy, and its ability to find comic gems in the most mundane situations (one classic episode is set entirely in a mall car-park). Seinfeld was, as all involved frequently admitted, a show about nothing. But this extras-laden collection--which features extensive cast and creator commentaries, deleted scenes, trivia tracks, outtakes, interviews and more--is most definitely something. --Ted Kord

Synopsis

The first two seasons of the New York comedy series about stand-up comedian Jerry Seinfeld and his three friends - George Costanza, Elaine Benes and Cosmo Kramer.

5.0 out of 5 stars A long time ago in a coffee house not that far away..., 22 Oct 2004
When it first appeared on the scene Seinfeld was something different, 'a comedy about nothing' it was also very funny and light years ahead of other comedy shows. When it finished a few years ago it had only got better.

Centred around Jerry Seinfeld (top stand-up Jerry Seinfeld playing against type)- a stand-up comedian living in New York mulls over the minutiae of the mundane with childhood pal George Kostanza (a short, dum-witted bald man with a chip on his a shoulder), Kramer (the gangly, kooky neighbour who eats Jerry out of house and home) and Elaine (Feisty female & Jerry's Ex who's now part of the gang) in his apartment and the coffee shop. Seinfeld - like most great comedies - also boasts strong background characters such as Jerry's nemesis Newman and particularly both George and Jerry's parents.

The first season shows itself as such, with actors growing into the characters - Jerry in particular as an untrained actor took a season to transfer his on stage persona to the small screen. This is made up for in the quality of the writing and the genius of the plot twists and intricacies. Both the writing and the bizarre plots would be a Seinfeld trademark throughout the following seasons.

This is a genuine treat of a DVD - backed with a smorgasbord of extras (commentaries/out-takes/deleted scenes/Footage of Jerry's stand up material and more) - you must buy this package. Seinfeld is without doubt one of the funniest shows ever. Were it not for The Simpsons there would be no doubt as to the funniest show of the 1990s, that's how good Seinfeld is. And this is the beginning of it all, and its satisfaction guranteed : enjoy.....

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid Gold Stuff, 17 Oct 2005
By Skyline UK (Leamington Spa, Warwickshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Seinfeld is an acquired taste, but oh boy, once you've acquired the taste you will never lose it I promise you. Don't be put off because you hate run-of-the-mill US comedy shows, with the appalling canned laughter and forced gags; Seinfeld has none of these. The studio audience laughter is real and the gags honed to perfection. Instead you have genuine comedy, in the sharp Jewish vein, scripted by people who really cared and acted by one of the best comedy acting teams ever assembled. The chemistry between them is sublime. Unlike most DVD compilations you will find yourself watching these over and over again. Your addiction will be complete.

1.0 out of 5 stars Baffled., 23 Feb 2010
By William H. Morgan (London, England.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I missed Seinfeld the first time around, so I thought I'd give it a go, as it had been recommended by many people whose opinions I respect.
And I remain baffled as to what any of them see in it.
Of the four leads, two are boring, one's annoying, and the other is outright repulsive.
The situations, when not tedious, are painful - not painfully funny, just painful - and far too protracted.
Dutifully, I sat through the entire first two seasons, thinking, "Everybody says it's good; it's got to get better."
And it ... didn't.
I will give it credit for one thing, though - It completely reversed my displacement activity.
With many DVD box sets, I put off doing the paid writing gigs to watch the DVDs; "Just one more episode, *then* I'll get down to work.", I promise myself.
With this? "Eh. I'll finish off that piece I promised my editor, *then*, maybe, I'll watch another episode. After I walk the dog. And do the dishes."
It might not have entertained me much - but it's worked wonders for my work ethic!
