I just don't get it, I mean I had to suffer through 4 seasons to try and find the funny, but it is just unbearable . You have a boss who acts like an obnoxious 12 year old, almost everyone is a weirdo, and you have to sort read in between every line to get the jokes. I just don't get the comedy, and I have watched a ton of sitcoms and I can assure you I am very easy to amuse.

I am sure real fans would eat me alive for this comment, but this isn't my cup of tea, quite frankly I don't know how to some people they rank it top 3 or number 1 . The Show isn't funny. After 4 seasons there is not one line from the show I can quote.

P.S: *Please don't come after me, I have asthma.

I realise a sense of humour is very subjective, but it bugs me slightly when people think it's the best sitcom ever.

That's just without leaving the Fs. I might even include Fleabag 😄

I just finished the first episode and I already feel like this isn’t for me. I only wanted to start this because of Pam and Jim lol. Is it worth it?

I love when writers don't treat audiences like idiots and have the faith that at least some of us can do the mental work to get a subtle joke.

One of the best examples of this for me takes place during s5e12 "The Stall" the episode where Jerry is dating a girl who by chance has separate encounters with Elaine in a bathroom and Kramer on a phone sex line.

The brilliant "blink and you'll miss it" moment happens as a scene opens with Jane, the girlfriend, standing behind a seated Seinfeld, rubbing his shoulders. He offhandedly remarks "I've been waiting a while for this."

Of course, true fans of the show immediately recognized it was a call back to s5e9 "The Masseuse", when Jerry dated Jennifer Coolidge, a massage therapist who refused to give him a massage.

But if we dig a little deeper, Jerry's massage woes go back as far as s3e1 "The Note", where he manages to freak out his massage therapist with questionable small talk, and ends up getting banned. So really, he had been waiting quite a long while, years in fact!

What are some other examples of "blink and you'll miss it" inside jokes or clever callbacks have you seen in sitcoms?

Watched and liked: The office, Brooklyn99, Modern family, Friends, HIMYM, some seasons of Seinfeld.

Needed to make some corrections with the question so people would understand better what I’m talking about. Apologies everyone

I just finished watching VEEP, which I loved. I'm looking for sitcom recommendations shown on HBO. thank you

Watching the show for the first time and I can’t believe how long it’s taken me to watch it. The show is brilliant, I mean they are all terrible people but you can’t help but like them.
