Yeah that's why edgy comedian like Jimmy Carr has released 2 Netflix specials in last 3 years. And he, unlike Seinfeld, isn't whining about 'kids these days'.
There's a shit ton of good young comedians. Jerry is an old man telling kids to get off his lawn.
You should read up on juvenoia (sp?). Vsauce did a great video on the topic. Helps keep you grounded when you struggle with the thoughts of are the kids wrong or am I just out of touch. Spoiler, they are no more wrong than we ever were as kids, and yes we are out of touch with the youth. But it’s all ok as long as you accept that there can be things you don’t understand or that just aren’t meant for you.
That's a great way to look at it.
Also remember, you're the oldest guy you saw when you were the kids age.
Yeah, but Jimmy Carr's greatest achievement is beating Father Time by transforming himself into a plastic vampire. Jerry Seinfeld's greatest achievement is making a movie where a bumblebee cucks Kronk.
I love Kronk, but immortality > bee sex.
Or Chapelle
But in chapelle's case, chapelle ruined comedy
His latest special was incredible.
