Series: Seinfeld

What can one say about the best comedy series ever? Well, it's the best comedy series ever... duh!!!

It's not about the acting... "Kramer" is the man and "George" just gets the whole Larry David persona ("Curb your Enthusiasm" is frightening in that sense). Seinfeld is not a brilliant actor, but he makes it work... it just works. The writing is exceptional... Larry Charles, all the guys and obviously the uber-writers, the main men: Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld. The situation makes itself, no real need for brilliant acting. The theme of "nothing" is exceptional and you can only laugh. It is self-fulfilling comedy.

Then it withstood the two biggest tests of any TV series:
- After series 4, it continued to improve. To have the "Soup Nazi" episode on series 7 is an incredible example of that. It went up, it sustained quality. That is quite unique in comedy series.
- It still makes sense today although it's a "90's series".

Sheer brilliance and the end made it all worthwhile. The nihilism that has to pay. All of a sudden, all makes sense. And Seinfled, Elaine, George and Kramer do pay... they had to, there were just too good(bad)!
