Seinfeld

I watched the full series again a few years ago. I’m not sure it held up. It wasn’t bad, it was just that so many of the plots would end in just a few minutes if they had cell phones or smart phones.<p>One of the classic Seinfeld episodes is where they are stuck waiting for a table at a Chinese restaurant. The whole time George is freaking out, because some guy is on the pay phone and he needs to make a call. This was a very relatable frustration when the show was released, but something people today have no concept of.<p>I found a lot of episodes fell into this category, to the point that it was my primary takeaway from the series (at least for the re-watch, I originally watched it when it first aired and this obviously wasn’t a problem or something of note).
