I reread this blog and I agree; I need to see my sitcom friends daliy, otherwise I have a sense that I forgot to do something that day. (Serenity now!)

Technology dates the show, but that isn’t what the episodes are about. It is about what we all identify with in relationships and daily life that makes the characters endearing, especially with the terrific portrayal of each character by the actors.

I miss the tone and sensibility of the show…most of the shows that are on or quickly cancelled are too broad and general superficial characters with mean spirited low brow humor. Writers and producers from the 70s show such as Mary Tyler Moore, Rhoda, and Bob Newhart brought up that point…The Brady Bunch didn’t have that New York Jewish shtick that I adore, but the characters cared and communicated with one another that is still comforting today as an adult as when I saw it in syndication in the 70s. Fun nostaglia 40 yrs. from now is what I predict SEINFELD will be as The Brady Bunch is today.

I have to admit, I never watched Seinfeld when it was on – I catch it now and again in syndication, and every episode is funny, and I find myself saying “I should watch this more often”. I cannot believe that it has been 10 years since it ended. To be honest, I don’t know where to rate it among the “best shows of all time” because I LOVE LUCY and THE GOLDEN GIRLS are 2 of my favorites. Seinfeld and Fraiser, among others, are ones that I am seeing for the first time.

I thought that I would see the Greg Brady Project mention something about Jack Black mentioning THE BRADY BUNCH when he announced that when Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have this next child, they will have enough for “A Brady Bunch” – inadvertently telling everyone that she is indeed, expecting twins.

I recently read an article that said that, 10 years later, the series doesn’t hold up. I couldn’t disagree more. I catch it once or twice a week and it’s still as funny as the first time I saw it.

One of the greatest shows ever. If I could only have a handful of series on DVD, “Seinfeld” would be one of them. Endlessly watchable, quotable, and a font of conversation among fellow fans.
