Zoomer here. Was Jerry supposed to be a lousy comedian, or was this considered good stand-up in the 90s?
He's certainly better than the "comedians" you guys gossip about here.
>>223133825It was clean safe stand-up that could have been showed on 90s television. You retarded zoomers don't understand they weren't even allowed to say the word masturbation.
>>223133825It was groundbreaking if you hadn't flown in an airplane
>>223133825It's considered good stand-up in the 2020s.
>kramer how did your first set go?>oh i bombed jerry, BOMBED!
>>223133825Zoomers don't know how to laugh if nobody is being viciously mocked.
Reminder zoomers have been shown to possess lower IQs than previous generations and are typically Mexican
All standup is shit, it's an inherently bad artform. The only good standup comedy is when it's combined with something else like pantomime or a magic show.
>le subversion deconstruction of standup
>>223133825The ONLY time Jerry Seinfeld made me laugh is when he went on Letterman to defend Kramer
>a show about a standup comedian getting inspiration for his act>the inspiration is infinitely funnier than the actIt's Larry's underhanded commentary on the business, and Jerry was too dull to pick up on it.
Observations. Simple observations, you'll cunt
>>223133825The only bit that was good was the one about suicide
It was easier to laugh back then.
>>223133825It's one of those things that gets too much hate, but simultaneously isn't good enough to furiously defend. Plenty of funny bits, plenty of just Jerry yammering about bullshitMy favorite is definitely >Why do we have commercials for toilet paper? Who's not buying this stuff?
>>223134678>Soo folks, ya ever notice that men and women...are DIFFERENT??>audience erupts into convulsions from how funny and true it is
>>223133825I don't know anyone who thought his standup was good, but I also don't know anyone who thought it was particularly bad. It was consistently 6/10.
Elephants Graveyard is genuine schizophrenic meaningless gibberish
>>223133825in 1990 when it began? yes, Jerry Seinfeld was extremely funny compared to anything on television. it's impossible to explain if you weren't around. The first season of the Simpsons was news for months because they showed Barts butt and he said down with homework. Like, actual senators and shit giving opinions. TV was so, so uncontroversial and down the middle that Jerry was unhinged and innovative at that time
>>223133825my parents had a copy of jerry seinfeld's cd they would play during breakfast some morningsso what do you think
>>223135008>autistic retard missed the point
>>223133825No, he only got famous because he's one of the chosen and ((they)) proceeded to fund him and plaster him everywhere as a result.
>>223135020on early 90s morning zoo it was not uncommon to just hear them play 10 minutes of Seinfeld routines unbroken
>>223133825He wasn't very funny, but the show had great writers and a top tier supporting cast carrying it. His standup was often mocked with the "what's the deal with airline food?" meme
>>223135261I think it was the fact that he was both a popular comedian and one with a clean act.A very rare combination, even back in the 90s.Steve Martin and Bill Cosby are the only other clean comedians i can think of
>>223133825>comedians in 2026
>>223133825I enjoyed seasons 6-9 of Seinfeld more then 1-5.
>>223133825it was mid back then. no one really knew who he was until his show took off. olds are so confused about reality that they make up their memories on the fly.
>>223135453t. zoomer
>>223133825He is the missionary sex of stand-upThat's mostly a compliment
>>223135453He was on Carson or Letterman 5 times a year, which was a lot back then
>>223135347>Why is 25 the cut off?They're less likely to be a faiing comedian.
He's le pro israel and dated a 17 year old toddler, how can you think he was funny, like I cant even
>>223135504Exactly. And sometimes that’s fine, not everything has to be gaping and raping.
>>223135549>He's le pro israelThis hasn’t been an insult for about 2 months now. We’re back to not caring.
It is a show about the life and times of its characters. I suppose Jerry, in the show, was supposed to be a struggling, yet possibly up-and-coming comedian. So no, you're not supposed to belly laugh at the jokes in his standup opening monologues, if that's what you're asking.
>>223135601Shalom fellow white man ;)
>>223135549Where’s the “she was only 17.999999 you son of a bitch” meme guy?
>>223133825his "stand up" in the show is fake bits performed for a fake audience that directly tie into the episode
>Your existence is proof that your parents had sex. At least if you're adopted it's possible that they're just good friends.
>>223135663The official white man position is they can both go back to the desert and 69 each other.
>>223135601>This hasn’t been an insult for about 2 months now. We’re back to not caring.every single day the news is talking about hasan saying Israelis are inbred etc
I always saw the standup segments as little more than thematic riffs. Usually (though not always) they speak to the narrative in some way. >Jerry makes an observation about dating in the standup>something kinda like that happens in the sitcomIt works in its way. Those parts never made me laugh, though. Some are saying that's due to the constraints on 90s television, but Seinfeld's stage shows feature much the same kind of material despite the creative freedom he has there.
>>223135702Who?
>>223135694I suppose that makes sense, since most stand up comedians draw direct inspiration from their daily lives for their material.
>>223135700Do you have Alzheimer's? The conversation was about Seinfeld, a zionist jew. No one said anything about Palestine.
>>223135375All the seasons are good aside from season 1. Season 4 is the peak of the show, but all seasons have great episodes.
Rodney Dangerfield did it better
>>223135832I just liked the absurdism of the latter seasons more
>>223135700that's just the embarrassed zionist position. you're gonna pay for this one day btw.
>>223133825I saw him live during a post-Seinfeld standup tour and remember enjoying it. Not everything has to be edgy and profane. If anything, it's more respectable to be funny without resorting to that sort of low hanging fruit.
>>223136128>t. candy ass
He's better than any Rogansphere Kill Tony dweeb desu
Jonathan Winter had some real crackers
>>223136435Yeah I don't know what this means, Cletus. My ass is made of candy? What is that supposed to imply, exactly?
>>223134309zoomers are so fucking retarded that PISA data from 2025 shows the achievement gap is closing because literacy scores for "privileged" kids dropped 20 points and unprivileged kids only saw a 4 point decline
>>223136501>TonyI cannot fathom someone like him existing and I fear him as a result
>what is the deal with people bringing up shoshana? I took her to the prom, I bought her a dress and hired a limo. What more do you people want? What iiiiiis the deal?
>>223136616I can't blame the man honestly. She was (and may Hitler forgive me for saying this) a hot piece of khazar ass
>>223136545underage b&
The old Gilbert impressions are gold:>>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpE1AG9SmFU
>>223136545look at this roodypoo
>>223134342It's not really an artform, it's quite similar to magic shows in that it's a parlour trick, all you do is convince an audience you're naturally funny by pretending to come up with jokes on the spot when in fact you wrote them a year ago and are naturally an unlikeable dickhead
>>223133825Nobody saw standup comedy except if you were cool enough to go outside and go to comedy clubs. There wasn't Youtube hosting every standup that ever happened on demand. Seinfeld was the only standup the world knew.
>>223137041the did you blow the chauffeur bit was great.
hmm
>>223135965Oh I’m really scared you’re going to shoot some gay halfass junior high rocket at me.
>>223135965Jerry is a bad man very bad
the absolute standard in the ‘90s for the funniest stand-up bit was…https://youtu.be/ntp8_KFv59Y
>>223136986i hate to spoil it for you unc but there's about two decades of adults inbetween underage and being old enough to be familiar with your cringe '90s "insults"
>>223137286My Gen X boss tells me to get into Steven Wright, Bill Hicks, and Jonathan KatzIs it worth it?
>>223135601>>223135700>>223137257>israel has given up on trying to be the good guys and are desperately trying to at least make people see both sides as equally badthings are going to get much, much worse for you
>>223137298>I'm a gwown-up fuh weal! >:(>unckek
>>223137325Shut the fuck up Hussein.
>>223137363Aw looks like someone's hangry cuz they ran out of baby foreskins
Can someone recommend me a stand up comedian. I’ve watched many and can only say that Louis CK, Doug Stanhope and Lenny Bruce are significant for me.
>>223135347Why are women filled with such bitterness and jealousy?Instead of shaming men for dating girls younger than you, why not be that girl dating the older man when you're younger?Missed your shot because you were lied to by feminism? Go cry somewhere else.
>>223135702Congrats on following a racist commie, you ignorant faggot. He openly hates white people as well as Jews, at the same time refusing to acknowledge that he's a brown Muslim. The guy unironically dressed as Mao, the man responsible for 80 million deaths under his communist regime. You couldn't get a bigger retard and you couldn't be a bigger faggot.What's the best Seinfeld episode? Car park for me.
>>223137401Im gonna gatekeep that information. People are annoying when a comedian gets popular.
>>223137362i'm sorry you're coping this badly with your midlife crisisi almost feel bad imagining the kind of guy who's 40 years old and spending his friday night trying to have internet fights on 4chan with people he thinks are underageunc at your age you're supposed to be spending time with your own kids, not fighting with kids on the internet
>>223137431I respect it.
>>223137390>racist myth>doesn't deny being MuslimLet's not forget that Muslims circumcised for religious reasons too and the whole "boy love" in Iran.
>>223137445all the zoomettes love uncs. we're the last generation to look and act like men, so they're instinctively drawn to us.i'm 55 and my gf is 19
>>223137445>fighting with kids on the internet>kids on the internet>kidsand so he admits it
>the literal jewboy crashing out all over the thread wew lad
>>223134145lmao
>>223133825It was okay, bar for standup was always low and still is. I mean people still glaze carlin to this day, and his routines were just very typical reddit nihilism. Its just people weren't exposed to reddit nihilism and jewish complaints about airplane food unless they lived in new york or boston; so it was novel material for most of the population.
>>223137539>40 years old and never learned to readyikesi didn't say i was a kid, i said you think i'm a kidin your mind you're spending your friday night arguing with children on the internet>>223137531yeah buddy you and every other old guy on the internetyou sound pretty insecure nglbut let's pretend you're telling the truthdoes having a 19 year old prostitute help distract you from the fact that you never married or had kids?sounds like a sad way to die, no one with you but a woman young enough to be your granddaughter who's only there so she can get a paycheck once you diesad, really sadwhat messed you up this bad, unc? porn addiction at an early age? too much time on /r9k/?
>>223137919shut up faggot
>>223133825Comedy tastes change every 20-25 years or so. At the time it was fresh, but now it's been overdone by imitators, so it seems stale. >ItWillHappenToYou.Gif(Webm)
>>223134342tpbp
>>223137979
>>223137406>why not be that girl dating the older man when you're younger?They usually are, dude, that's the point.Realizing that they're now the old roasties who were seething seeing them with an older guy is a bitter pill to swallow.
>>223134076Actually he jokes about a lot of topics that wouldn't be allowed today
>>223136569Zoomers aren't taking pisa test.I know you've been left behind by time and are only vaguely aware that there's a group of people younger than you called zoomers at whom you are mad for replacing you but those are gen A scores.
>>223133825his comedy is very neutral and accessable but not particularly innovativewhich in the time and place made him quite successfulthey talk about this in the show
>>223137946i hope this conversation has encouraged you to stop and think about how you're spending what little remains of your lifeyou don't have many good years left unc, please find a better way to spend them than whatever you're doing here
Look at this child and her huge child breasts, how could Jerry go after this, he was a groomer and a pedo!
>>223138172zoomers and gen alpha are the same thing, broccoli hair
>>223133825Jerry was supposed to be insufferable and make you associate that with normalcy
>>223133825I've always preferred Weed Seinfeld
>>223137979I mean yeah. There's a whole TV tropes page talking about this exact phenomenon with Seinfeld.https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SeinfeldIsUnfunny
>>223135555Quads of lies and deceit
>>223134145underrated
>>223137431Most comedian's material is subpar. You should try asking for a comedians' best bits instead.
>>223138123So did Zach and Cody and that show was literally for kids.Life before Obama was just a different time.
>>223138301god damn this is disgustingly autistici cringe just trying to read itit's like an entire site devoted to millennial quirk chungus circlejerking
>>223138060>They usually are, dude, that's the point.Obviously, they are not dating very well if they are still single when they are older.Or they are prioritising their career or independence or "fun" (being a whore) in their 20s instead.
>>223133825good for a chuckle with family, that's about it. he would've gone nowhere as a comedian without the show, but he was still good enough to make money doing small gigs.
>>223133825Why isn't he pushing contemporary politics?
>>223133825there was LITERALLY less stufff you could say in the mainstream public space. And all the restrictions are removed now so old stuff that was mainstream looks simple now. Thats why people saying bad words could give a guy a successful career it was actually interesting.
>>223134342t.lacks varied sense of humor
>>223133825The writers made a better show in their sleep when Seinfeld was still playing the Catskills.
>>223134342Truthnuke
>>223134342>durrhurr i nyeed magic thows to pay attenthun
>throws a tantrum because the ritualistic mutilation of baby genitalia is depicted as potentially maybe a bit morally questionable
>>223135020That sounds comfy.
>>223135347The 2020s are the most embarrassing decade in a century. I mean, so many who were there cite the 70s and 80s as embarrassingly horrible but this era is literally hell on Earth.
>>223134342>magic showHearty kek
>>223133825it was simply "sensible chuckle" material of the time. it wasnt the kind of comedy for knee-slapping, wheezing, raucous laughter. just a kind of consistent smirking and amusement.
>>223135631>supposed to be a struggling, yet possibly up-and-coming comedianHe bought his dad a Cadillac on a whim and Elaine nearly squirts through her clothes in that one episode where she saw his bank statements
>>223136128>Not everything has to be edgy and profane.Can someone please tell this to that gross bitch who keeps making jokes about wanting to fuck her dead dad?
>>223135020Was the music from the show playing in the background?
>>223134105They should make the whole airplane out of the show.
>>223136878Any girl with breasts over size D is 100% a woman. No age is magically going to make her not a retarded child, like all women.
>>223134475That would be the best outcome.
Seinfeld sucks so fucking bad, there was some mass hypnosis going on with boomers that made him so popular, same with Carlin. Objectively unfunny
>>223137493Kill yourself like faggot no one likes you and everyone hates you and wants you dead

its written for the show and tv. later they get a little more jerry, when they dont bother with making it related
>>223134475larry david or charles, the actual mastermind of peak seinfeld?
