Jerry Seinfeld is a billionaire, but...


Michael Richards is only worth 30 million.

That's why being a founder is always better than being an employee.

Seinfeld is the most overrated TV show ever.

I found it unwatchable.

reply

I watched 4 seasons, the first 2 weren’t really good but 3 and 4 were really great.

reply

you not liking something doesn't make it overrated

reply

That is unless the rating was a 100% approval.
Then since 1 person in fact didn’t like it it is therefore overrated.

reply

That is absolutely retarded logic and makes no sense.

I was being sarcastic, buddy.

I never could figure out the appeal of that show, either. I tried watching it, but could never get into it.
Maybe it was too NYC-centric? If I had lived on the East Coast perhaps I would have understood it better.

I used to watch it on Netflix. I think its clever how the stories of the characters interwined and the payoff at the end was generally something clever.

It did fall into the world of whacky at the end because they had run out of 'the show about nothing' and needed whacky to keep it going. The episode about being stuck in a traffic jam for Puerto Rico day was a strange mix of being about nothing (stuck in your car) and whacky (George goes and watches a movie and gets mad at a guy with a laser pen who stole his moment for a joke, then is stalked by a red dot on his face outside.)

Seinfeld set a bar that has yet to be reached by any sitcom produced since.

It's not overrated. Friends is overrated. Friends shouldn't have lasted one season.

Or why it's better to not ruin your career by going on racist rants!

reply

why can blacks say the word but whites can't just cause the color of their skin?

reply

The fact you dont understand and have to ask that means you're a lost cause.

reply

so ur telling me we have to just sit back listen to them make mainstream music with this word, and can't even sing along?!? That is Racist!!!!

reply

So 30 million isn't enough for you?

Uh, yeah.

reply

30 million is still a dream come true. Michael Richards probably is very grateful for the fact that he earned good money for the last few seasons. I believe he has a beachside home and keeps to himself.

reply

I'd be fine with 30 million! Just give me 30 million and I'll prove it!

reply

seinfeld is one of the owners. richards never was.

reply

^^ jerry and L.D. cleaned up nice

i assume the actors always get less than the producers anyway
be it TV or film

reply

If those guys are worth that much it's time for a bloody revolution. Marx was right. Our system is out of whack.

I mean I like them both. But no sitcom actor is worth a billion dollars.
