Seinfeld's lasting appeal is credited to his astounding observational skills, as well as avoiding coarse language, dirty jokes or politics, so that his material holds a truly timeless quality.
When the show came to a close after a glorious 10 year run in 1998, the gifted entertainer returned to his stand-up roots and continues to tour, while also starring in his Netflix series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. Graduating from a gruelling 300 stand-up shows a year, he turned his material into what would become his crowning achievement, leading quirky characters Elaine, George and Kramer to certified comedy gold in the smash-hit sitcom Seinfeld. Arguably one of the greatest comedians of his time, Jerry Seinfeld has been entertaining audiences with his witty observations of the mundane little wrinkles of life since he stepped up to the mic in 1976.
