I am not saying that is was done purposefully, but if you scratch the surface you find a running commentary on Total Depravity, idol worship, the futility of life perceived by the natural man.

Then I do agree. I have a Crusade buddy who uses Seinfeld episodes as illustrations for a lot of his talks. They're great negative examples - kinda like Ecclesiastes.

Actually, that'd be an interesting gimmick for a "seeker-friendly" study based on Ecclesiastes. Use Seinfeld episodes as the lead-in for each chapter.

My favorite episodes are the ones with crazy Joe DiVola, and I really wish I could find some way to import that sound that Newman makes evertime one of his schemes is thwarted. It would make a wonderful post reply, when needed.
