Seinfeld is making waves again because of its arrival on the Netflix streaming platform. The classic ’90s show has spent some time in limbo after being a fixture on Hulu for a few years, but now fans can watch the show about nothing in all its glory.
Seinfeld was easily my favorite show as a kid, and while it may have pushed some boundaries as to what topics were suitable for prime time television, it was widely lauded for the clever storylines that often took the mundane and made it funny. One episode, for example, involves the cast waiting for a table at a Chinese restaurant. I used to tape episodes on VHS and watch them during season breaks, and they never got old. To have the entire show on streaming is a pure joy of convenience. I’m sure I binged the show once during its stint on Hulu, and will probably go through it again now that it’s on Netflix—though who knows how long that will take.
Perhaps one of the best shows of all time, it was also produced during that glorious era before wokeness destroyed everything. So, in honor of Seinfeld’s debut on Netflix, I’ve compiled ten episodes that couldn’t be made to today,
This episode has been offending the snowflakes since it aired. When Jerry, George, Elaine, and Kramer get stuck in traffic because of the Puerto Rican Day Parade, they abandon their car and get into all sorts of hijinks, and the episode ends with Kramer accidentally igniting and stomping on a Puerto Rico flag, causing an uproar. NBC had to apologize for the episode after it aired. Frankly, I’m surprised that Netflix didn’t simply exclude the episode from their service.

“Not that there’s anything wrong with that.”
How many times did we hear that sarcastic comment? That would never ever fly today.
I had no idea!
That’s one series out of many that I never watched. I always seemed to have something more important to do (work) than sitting in front of the tube.
Elaine on the train to a lesbian wedding. On no I’m not a lesbian. I mean I hate men, but I’m not a lesbian.
I still remember Amos and Andy reruns on TV. Gone now.
“Third Rock From The Sun” also had a few episodes that would never be done today.
One episode in particular comes to mind.
“Dick, Who’s Coming To Dinner”

I remember watching “Amos & Andy” as well.
‘90s, same era when Norm MacDonald did the Weekend Update on SNL. After that, comedy stopped being funny because it became “woke”.
The only reason they couldn’t be made is because nobody fights back and tells them to go to hell. Anyone pulls that PC crap on me I come back at them 2000 times harder. I was in NYC waiting in my car for my brother and this woman pulled along side me telling me to go F myself because of the MAGA sticker and I got out of my car and got right in her face, told her I stick that steering wheel right up her effin ass and basically terrorized the hell out of her. That’s what you gotta do otherwise they will never stop. She will think twice about doing that again. To HELL with these people, to HELL with them!
We had soup from the Soup Nazi!
Yeah. I don’t think I’ ve seen “The Puerto Rican Day Parade” in syndication, but all of the others aired on a local NBC station late-night.
1. “The Puerto Rican Day Parade” (Season 9, Episode 20)
This episode has been offending the snowflakes since it aired. When Jerry, George, Elaine, and Kramer get stuck in traffic because of the Puerto Rican Day Parade, they abandon their car and get into all sorts of hijinks, and the episode ends with Kramer accidentally igniting and stomping on a Puerto Rico flag, causing an uproar. NBC had to apologize for the episode after it aired. Frankly, I’m surprised that Netflix didn’t simply exclude the episode from their service.
Here’s the irony of the Puerto Rican day parade episode- about a month/two months after it was aired there was the infamous wilding incidents in Central Park after the- wait for it now- Puerto Rican Day parade!!!
The Bad Sunday In The Park

Agree 1000%- I live in liberalsville NY (near Chappaqua) and at least a half dozen times the past month I’ve yelled “F you!! F Biden” at people with biden stickers on their car. Most are shocked and take off. I’m waiting to see the occupants of two homes to ask them where are the biden signs they previously had on their yard.
Treat these people the way they treat us!!
Wow - can't imaging doing that here in the Midwest. Glad to see we have some thick skinned east-coasties on our side!
So, he is in FreeRepublic jail?
Kind of like Facebook jail.
Maybe we could get coffee cups made up just like they sell on FB marketplace that say Facebook jail parolee, etc.
I bet the episode with the cigar store indian is on the list.
I don’t know if HG is in FR jail, but the moderator had to intervene several times to tell him to knock it off.
