@litwriter100, technically not true, George's mother in one episode mentions how she will not ride in a german car, implying memories of the Holocaust, therefore George is at least half-Jewish
P.S. I recall now that in one episode Kramer specifically tells Elaine he’s not Jewish and an episode where George’s Father is identified as a Knights of Columbus, an organization where one must be Catholic. Therefore, of the four main characters, only Jerry is Jewish.
What did the execs mean by the show being “too Jewish”? In one episode, Elaine is specifically identified as not being Jewish. George is an insincere convert to “Latvian Orthodox,” we assume from Catholicism since he’s Italian. I don’t recall Kramer’s religious background ever being mentioned. So why too Jewish? Because Jerry is? One out of four?
"Seinfeld" set new standards. That is why it succeded. Audiences were ready for the next step in intellectual comedy. The audience and the industry grew into "Seinfeld", not the other way around. An earth moving work of genius.

When Larry said he cried about the 22 episodes, I lost it. I had tears running down my face, (from laughter) imagining him sobbing over getting MORE work.
The greatest show ever. I have said many times to my girlfriend "You have to like Seinfeld!!!!! It is really important to me that MY GIRLFRIEND likes Seinfeld!!!!!" After 2 seasons SHE LOVED IT!!!!!!
just watched my first episode so i'm really late getting into seinfeld but after curb your enthusiasm, and this documentary i watched my first show and it really is about nothing and thats what makes it so funny its so real, and really really clever, brilliant show and larry david is amazing
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Larry David is obviously the reason the shows were so funny... Curb your enthusiasm is The Greatest show ever.... i still love Seinfeld .. and sometimes choose Seinfeld over Curb.. but thats because of how many more episodes Seinfeld had then Curb...
But there is no doubt that the show was such a success is because of the Actors.. julia jason and micheal are PERFECT for the show.. and all of the extras.. they never faild with the actors (same with Curb.)
