The funny part is that despite being treated horribly by that guy they keep going back because “the soup is so good”.

Seinfeld was about making fun of narcissistic and neurotic main characters

“Seinfeld was about making fun of narcissistic and neurotic main characters”

Yeah, it was rarely laugh-out-loud funny. It was more comedy of the absurd. :)

Sure, but for the most part I didn't find them unlikeable or unsympathetic. The show seemed to me to be saying that one didn't have to be perfect, and that being a little loopy wasn't the worst thing in the world. In the last episode, though, the series did morally indict the characters. That episode wasn't one of the best by any means.
