Seinfeld
A show about nothing.
Created by Larry David, Jerry Seinfeld
On NBC
A high-energy sitcom built on observational comedy and the irreverent dynamics of four friends, structured around the weekly reset and the comfort of familiar characters in familiar situations.
A stand-up comedian and his three offbeat friends weather the pitfalls and payoffs of life in New York City in the '90s. It's a show about nothing.
