Oh, hell, no. It's not like Seinfeld invented sitcoms, or even modern sitcoms. It's not the Model T, it's the Ford Escort. Maybe.
And I'm not saying it's unfunny, I'm saying it's a solid 90s sitcom that for some reason people are out here saying is the Model T of sitcoms. I feel like the level of hyperbole puts the burden of proof elsewhere.
And it's also not a case of it now being standard, because I assure you I've had this opinion since it was airing. I very much was of the batch of people who flip-flopped on Family Guy, but I was in the "Seinfeld was mid" camp before anybody ever called anything "mid".
Agree to disagree then
Been agreeing to disagree on this one for like 35 years, I'm good with that.
