Movie Reviews of Seinfeld - Season 8
Movie Review: C'mon. It's Seinfeld.
Summary: 5 Stars
Every one of these season sets gets 5 stars from me. Probably the best comedy ever to appear on American television. Movie Review: Seinfeld Season 8
Summary: 5 Stars
I never tire of these episodes. It's the funniest show ever on TV (not the best, but the funniest). They fired on all cylinders for 10 years.Movie Review: Sienfeld Season 8
Summary: 5 Stars
This was one of the funniest seasons but than again they are all very funny. The shipping was so fast I couldn't believe itMovie Review: MY 2 CENTS - REAL HIT AND MISS
Summary: 3 Stars
Don't want to reiterate all the past comments - just want to say that this season is real hit and miss. The characters did become, just characters. The rhythm and pacing of the show changed drastically with Larry David's departure.
You'll probably sit through the first disc with a smirk on your face, but few season 3-7 type laughs. Even the audience laughter on this season is canned. A REALLY bad sign. Even Kramer's entrances seem forced.
Look, ya gotta see it. And if you already own Seasons 1-7, you have to own it. But Jerry and the gang were already past their creative peak.
Jerry knew it too. He tried it for one more year - but even he couldn't bring himself to round it off with a Tenth Season.
The magic was beginning to go. Fortunately, enough remained to make it through Season 8. You will too.
Movie Review: As humorous as any other season
Summary: 5 Stars
Many reviewers downgrade this season, for a variety of reasons: Larry David's absence; the over-the-top nature of many of the episodes as well as the seeming obsession with having as many individual plot strands per episode as possible; the too-self-aware-for-its-own-good nature of the show at this point in its history. While these are all valid points, nonetheless, having watched this season recently, it made me laugh as much as any other. Maybe we're in danger of focussing on the trees and missing the forest - despite all the negatives, Seinfeld remained, and still remains, absolutely hilarious. How many other shows from the 90s bear rewatching now, and manage to retain the charm and humour they had at the time? Very few, it seems to me. There is a timelessness in this show that makes it a gem. Highly recommended.
