The answer is that Seinfeld was the Beatles of television.

Nirvana

A thing in the 90s, that was sort of a reaction to the mainstream (Nirvana to hard rock, Seinfeld to sitcoms), that did its own thing and became extremely popular, to the point where the concepts they did became mainstream.

One could make an argument for Pixies

its gotta be something self-conscious, simple, somewhat eccentric, well-known among plebs but with a cult following as well

This is fucking spot on. They also both quit before they turned to complete shit.

m b v is like curb your enthusiasm or something
>>
>>65229845
but curb your enthusiasm is better instead of more of the same but still good
>>
>>65229845
seinfeld and MBV are not even vaguely similar wtf
>>
>>65228976
The only sensible answer
>>
>>65229066
Not really, I don't think so. I mean both are really well known and influential, both weren't quite conservative, but this is where the similarity ends.

>>65229194
I'd argue that Nirvana didn't exactly do their "own thing", but the entire idea of being alternative and taking over the mainstream is correct.

>>65229707
Nothing is a problematic term, but it has no real point, that's what people mean - it just ridicules everything.

Seinfeld was on NBC.
>>
>>65229066
This should be the correct answer. Also, they ended Seinfeld after nine seasons because that's how many years The Beatles were a band. Or so I've heard.

Nirvana did not quit, in the same sense that Jerry didn't kill himself to escape from limousines of naked women and worldwide appreciation

it has to be something forward thinking and innovative that aged poorly and can't really be enjoyed that much by new audiences today
>>
>>65231669

Add to that, unless you actually sit down and take a look at the content. Lots of people can still appreciate Seinfeld, but you have to get past the first impression it gives as a modern spectator

>>65231717
I don't know man, I just can imagine a 15 year old today finding Seinfeld all that funny, there's a TV Trope about it
