Damn, wonder how they're going to feel about Home Improvement and Married With Children.
Nevermind All In The Family or The Jeffersons.
Millenial here, I always just thought it was shit!
I mean I watched it years ago? I didn't clock it as offensive just not really as funny as my parents found it.
I mean, it is offensive. Everyone knows it (I hope).
The actor of Kramer was even caught throwing racist insults in public so you know.
ok i think i might be gen x now.
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.
It's not a lie, if you believe it
Even at the young age of middle school watching that show, I knew George was a shitty person. Yet, I still felt sympathy for him because of his parents. Regardless, my favorite character was Frank Costanza. He was so over the top and emotional. The dude had PTSD from soldiers in Korea not liking his food in the field mess hall 😂
Seinfeld should be the baseline for commonsense humour
Never got into that show despite a lot of the episodes making it into pop culture. I still encounter people that offer some level of surprise that I didn’t watch it.
LOL. I found it offensive when it first aired. LTTP millenials.
Link to the Past?
I thought the same, but an internet search says it means "late to the party".
