I do. In Australia they would rarely show this as reruns, and I think because they were still finding their characters and it was jolting to go back to seeing Kramer as an introvert.
When I bought the dvds, I bought all seasons other than season one.
No, there's good stuff in season one. The Stake Out and Male Unbonding are great.
shareDoesn't make sense to skip it. The last scene of the finale bookends with the first scene of the pilot. The Stake Out is great and is the birth of Art Vandelay.
Personally I enjoy the tone of the earlier episodes.
I love Seinfeld but season 1 is not that good. By season 4 the series was at peak form.
shareNo because this show has been played so much on many different channels since the show has ended that i have probably seen each episode 10 times over. Probably more than 10. And In USA they always play reruns of shows in order. Funny thing is I never even watched 1 episode when it was still being aired. But through syndication it has became one of my favorite shows ever.
shareYou can't have bought season 2 without season 1. They released them together as "Volume 1". They've never been released in Australia separately.
shareI watch season 1 sometimes, and it has its moments, but it's not that good compared to the rest of the show. Honestly, I'm kind of surprised the show survived its first season. It started getting good in season 2, and really hit its stride in season 3.
shareIn this day and age, if a show doesn't get an audience within 2 episodes, it's pulled. No joke.
shareImagine if that had happened to Seinfeld. The world would never have known what it had missed out on.
shareIt's a shame that they don't give a show a decent chance. Both All in the Family and Cheers did poorly in the ratings in their first season.
