Sadly not very good

Just watched this. First half was ok, bumbling along with the usual Seinfeld observational stuff. Not particularly great but passing the time in a sort of nostalgic "hey, Jerry's doing his schtick but about modern-ish stuff" fun way.

Unfortunately, for me anyway, it died once the topic turned to his marriage and it seemed like almost the entire second half played out like a very dated "her indoors" routine.

I agree. I thought the postal service bit was ok but overall I didn't find the show funny. I kept hoping it would get better but the marriage part at the end just wasn't working for me. Disappointing show.

It was just ok

Okay, I won't watch it because you didn't like it. Thanks for the heads up.

No worries - Glad I could supply a definitive opinion for you 👍

It’s not bad, just really nothing new or ground breaking. It was funny though

Seinfeld is a smug prick. His show was obviously great, but that had more to do with Larry David than anything else. As for his standup, he couldn’t possibly be more boring or dated. The worst part is that he thinks he’s engaged in some life-altering enterprise by standing on a stage and telling dad jokes.
