    The whole show was people being shallow characters. That was the point.

    In fairness on the coffee thing, few people have heard the whole story, even now. I think most people today still believe the story was “woman sues because coffee was hot and she got a little burned, and the jury went nuts” and don’t know or care about the actual details.

      Growing up with Seinfied and it’s fans, it’s asshole power fantasy written by rich assholes. All the biggest fans that I know from back then are big Trump supporters now. If that was the writer’s intention, the watchers didn’t get it. Jerry Seinfied going anti-woke is so incredibly on brand, I wonder why it surprised anyone.
