Seinfeld: The sitcom that defined the '90s

Seinfeld, the ’90s sitcom that ingrained in our culture such indelible expressions as “These pretzels are making me thirsty!” and drew our attention to such social conundrums as, “Is soup a meal? Can you double-dip a chip? Can you re-gift a gift?” and raised social awareness about shrinkage, invented a Festivus for the rest of us, and … yada, yada, yada, is now streaming on Netflix.

The show was initially pitched to NBC by Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld as a day in the life of the titular comedian. He’d see his friends, George Costanza (Jason Alexander) and Elaine Benes (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), and his neighbor, Kramer (Michael Richards), while coming up with material for his act.
