The article talks a lot about worldwide rights - does Sinefeld make sense to people not familiar with all the quirks of New York City? I love Monty Python but I’ve met plenty of people that just don’t get it - I imagine that Seinfeld would be the same.
- bluetidepro 7y agoI've only ever been to NYC (as a kid) once, and it still makes sense to me. Granted, I live in another major city (Chicago). I think the "quirks" you are referring to are probably more just general US/American quirks, more than anything that specific to NYC. Kind of like the humor in the US version of The Office vs the English (UK) version.
- mindrunner 7y agoI'm not American, but grew up watching Sienfield / Frasier / Friends. Well, there are definitely times when I did not "get it", but repeated exposure to US culture via TV makes you sort of understand whenever certain issues come up i.e. correlating the various facts that crop up over different programs :) edit : Sienfield is also one of my all time favourite shows
- asdff 7y agoThe show may be set in nyc but is about interpersonal relationships that can apply anywhere.
