  I feel like we’re getting an “(insert legend comic here) is not good” once per day lately. Seinfeld took “Observational humor” to new heights. Then…a whole generation of comics copied him and many did it better. I enjoy listening to Seinfeld talk about comedy because he has an analytical approach that you don’t see with many comics. He knows how to dissect a joke…he knows “why” it’s funny and why it’s not. Seinfeld’s weakness is that he’s always been squeaky clean. He has a difficult time coming up with material that connects with regular people nowadays. He’s so rich that he doesn’t have to work. He would be a gem in a writer’s room, but what would be his motivation to do that?

  This is not an unpopular opinion. Jerry Seinfeld is a mediocre comedian at best. He's a little league player in the crowd of world series all stars you mentioned. >

  If Jerry didn't have that TV show, you'd be able to have a smoke with him outside when comedy night comes to the Comfort Inn in Dayton, OH >
  
  I think his standup is hit or miss (more popular among the older gens). But also, dude come on, those are the goats. Most comedians suck compared to the legends >
  
  Most people will say this, my unpopular opinion is that he's actually quite good. I mean he came from a time in which observational comedy was pretty much the only type of comedy, and in that style he was perhaps the best. 
  Then, tastes changed and he didn't, so he really doesn't jive with younger audiences today like he used to in the nineties.
