The show was funny because it was true. It was typical New York City, which abounds in just such farcical liberalism.

This is almost as insane as the King of the Hill Democrats article I saw the other day.

Funniest show ever on television Definitely one of the top sit-coms of all time, right up there with I Love Lucy and All in the Family.

I only saw parts of one show, and that was because I was trapped on an airliner.
It made me want to open the window and take a walk on the wing!

The only character that was every even remotely political was Elaine. In a couple of episodes we saw that she was pro-abortion and anti-fur. In another episode she showed political correctness in being militantly anti-smoking. However, often, these views were used as straight lines for Jerry or George.
IMHO, during the good seasons, the show was the funniest ever on television. There were a few seasons where the writers got lazy and the show suffered.
Could it be that the Seinfeld liberal is simply someone who is totally selfish and self-absorbed - like the characters on the show?

Elaine was pro-abortion to the point of making her look utterly stupid and closed-minded. There were a couple episodes with that topic involving Poppy and also her search for a perfect man.

Ditto.
The show wasn't political.
One episode had Elaine fighting over abortion, but the guy she ends up dating was pro-life.
You could tell pretty easily that the message of the show was that there are great people who you like who may happen to disagree with you on some issues.
She ends up opening her mind up a bit.
The show is not liberal.

Is it just me, or is there currently a popular trend to try to divine political overtones in everything these days?
Can't we just accept that not all shows have hidden agendas and enjoy them (or not) for what they are?
I for one don't want to just watch bland, neutral shows that have been deemed 'depoliticized for your protection'.
p.s. Wow. Depoliticized passed the spell checker. Who knew it was a real word?

Jerry and George just wouldn't care. George would vote, but only if it would impress his current girlfriend. Jerry would just wander by the precinct and get into random discussions with voters, not only missing his own chance to vote, but preventing others from getting in on time.

It amazes me how people are content to take things at face value. American Psycho came out in a special edition last week, and the bonus features talked about all the fuss the book created. It was interesting that NOW was so upset with the book when the author considered it a feminist novel. Portraying something isn't being in favor of it. I guess reading between the lines is an art most haven't mastered.

King of the Hill? They've GOT to be kidding...
I'm with you, the closest I've seen to Democrats in animation is Beavis and Butthead.
To: RockinRight
Couldn't get into the show. Not sure why, but none of the characters were likeable or people I could identify with in any way.
In fact, they constantly irritated me. I maybe watched 3 episodes.

Seinfeld was as apolitical a show as I have ever seen. Exactly! The show was about "nothing". They even did an episode about it.
