That was the first episode of Seinfeld I watched. I'd seen and heard parts before but I've never watched a full episode.

The finale was lame compared to the show. I would have been fine with it just stopping suddenly. A show about nothing got a plot and choked

Ever watch everybody loves Raymond? Nothing fancy. Nothing special. They just end it with the family all sitting down to dinner. Perfect.

Is no one going to talk about the guy with the big old VHS recorder?

BetaCam - it's a professional Sony camera. Given that he's using a cam system that cost about $35k in 1995, he's likely a pro news guy.

Well it was a HUGE deal, as I remember - the last episode. I’d only started watching it a year before so was sad it was over.

Why anyone would choose watching it that way instead of watching at home is a mystery to me.

Looks so 80s on the picture and it's been only 23 years

4 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

I think its the old style and outdated fonts on a lot of the signs that make it look older than the 90s.

The Sopranos ending was great. People are unsettled by the thought that death is like that - just a stop/black screen.

4 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 1

Nope! I'm fine with absolutely nothing happening after death & thought the ending did the entire show a disservice...

4 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Actually the guy who wrote it said that Tony Soprano was still alive. Though it could be a metaphor for the death of the the show.

+1 for green shirt guy with the huge ass shoulder camera.

4 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

That's a professional camera. Looks like a DXC-D30; might be a PVV-3 BetaCam. His hip-packs are batteries (left) and extra tapes. 1/2

4 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

At the time, that was a $20k camera, $2k belt pack, and the lens might be a $10k Canon J9-series. He's a news pro for sure. 2/2

How does it jump the shark? I think you’re trying to shoehorn that phrase into a comment.

4 years ago | Likes 16 Dislikes 29

You didn't find the finale at all a rehash of all the biggest stereotypes associated with the characters and show? It wasn't the worst by

4 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 1

But a rehash isn’t jumping the shark. I think the finale was great. Distilled Seinfeld that ended as it lived.

far, but seinfeld was very very ready to be over at that point

Would someone please enlighten me. I’ve never truly understood that phrase. What does it mean?

In the sitcom Happy Days the show's main character, 'The Fonz', jumped a shark tank on water skis in an attempt to revive falling ratings.

4 years ago | Likes 39 Dislikes 1

It's taken from an episode of "Happy Days," where The Fonz jumps over a shark while water-skiing. It's TV short-hand for when a show 1/2

goes past the point of no return in terms of being too silly, ridiculous, goes too far, etc.

It comes from one of the Jaws sequels. A shark jumps over a boat and bites someone, signaling the series had become ridiculous.
