Damn, wonder how they're going to feel about Home Improvement and Married With Children.
Nevermind All In The Family or The Jeffersons.
Married with Children is still hilarious. It's dated but since I lived through that time, it doesn't feel super dated, if that makes sense.

Someone should tell them to definitely stay away from Curb Your Enthusiasm (created and starring the co-creator of Seinfeld). It's like a rated-R version of Seinfeld that has absolutely no boundaries. LOL
Maybe an episode about an minor pursuing Elaine written by someone who's ok with dating a minor when he was 35 should be raising questions. Or when they had an episode pushing Tort reform when they made fun of the woman who was burnt by scolding hot McDonalds coffee.
Seinfield, both the character and person, is just a selfish, unsympathetic person and we're suppose to view the world though. I'm glad he's being called out for his shallow snark. This has been a long time coming.

Kinda amazing that nobody in this whole thread did any research on why seinfeld is offensive... Just reacting to a meme from fox news.
For example... https://www.cbr.com/seinfeld-puerto-rican-day-controversy/

To be fair I am pretty offended that this show is trying and failing to make me laugh, but I say that about a lot of sitcoms.
Actually I think the only sitcoms I find funny are Red Dwarf and It's Always Sunny... Which in terms of suggestive or non-politically correct content are quite up there. And I'm not even talking about the shit that didn't age well like Lister having a freak-out over the idea that his parallel universe self is gay or proclaiming some dude with acne has "More blackheads than a fried chicken establishment." (To be fair these both happen in one of the more poorly received seasons)
Hey remember? When Craig Charles was the announcer for the UK version of Takeshi's Castle and referred to the contestants as "Kamikaze cousins" and "Happy clappy Jappy chappies".... Haha...that did NOT age well... oh ho ho... to be fair, England had a lot of anti-asian sentiment going on in the 80's for some reason... Still, that's a lot that didn't age well.
But for real, love Red Dwarf, one of those shows I rewatch in full twice a year. I wish I could make myself forget the whole series so I can watch it again, it's THAT good.
