I'm an Xer and I didn't like Seinfeld, but that's mostly because I don't like embarrassment comedy. It's the same reason I don't like Will Ferrel and Ben Stiller, but to each their own. I don't begrudge anyone else finding it funny, it's just not my vibe.

I'm not saying you have to like Seinfeld or anything, but I wouldn't consider it embarrassment comedy. It's more about the gang being a bunch of sociopaths, like an early version of IASIP.

I agree on the embarrassment humor. Cringey stuff is worse than the most hellacious and gory horror to me most of the time.

Sienfeld never really hit me that way, though. It just seemed stupid and contrived in a very "look how edgy and relevant I am" sort of way.
