Society & Culture Seinfeld

[PhatBoy]

What would the cast end up being?

Probably Charlie Pickering as Seinfeld, Kitty Flanagan as Elaine, Dave Hughes as Kramer, Peter Helliar as George.

Gross. Utterly gross.

The only Australian females I find genuinely funny are Marg Downey, Jane Turner and as repetitive as her Schtick is, Judith Lucey. The male field is not much better. And at the top of the list is Eric Bana who isn’t even a comedy actor

Australian Seinfield. That's a tough one. You need a charismatic but quirky Jerry, a self deprecating George, a tall weirdo Kramer and an attractive but funny Elaine.

Jerry - Shaun Micallef
George - Sam Pang
Kramer - Peter Berner/Peter Rowsthorn
Elaine - Celia Pacquola

The Col'n Carpenter Show was kind of the Australian Seinfeld if Seinfeld was Col'n and Kramer.

 

[Plugger35]

Not many good Australian sitcoms apart from Kingswood Country, Mother and Son, Hey Dad and Kath and Kim.

The best was The Adventures of Lano and Woodley.

Good actor Kim Gyngell, I thought his small role in the first Underbelly was quality.

I watched this episode again recently.

Kramer doing the Hennigan's Scotch ads is both bizarre and brilliant.

Still love it but Seinfeld looks pretty dated. “Things that make you feel old” thread I guess. It did start in ‘89.

Take your anti-Seindite propaganda elsewhere on this sacred day.

Should be cinnamon babka tho.

Their nemesis got the last chocolate one

Seinfeld is dated by the fashion, decor, tech etc. but it doesn't detract from the show. The Wire didn't suddenly become shit because they use pagers and payphones. Quality is quality.

I find tinsel distracting

Kruger! My son tells me your company stinks! You couldn't smooth a silk sheet if you had a hot date with a babe... I lost my train of thought.
