I always see this scene and get so sad for him. That’s a lot of food that he put a lot of work into and was proud of his work. Watching him try to shovel it back into the pot hurts. I know it’s meant to be played off for humor, but I see next to none in that scene.

That’s because you have empathy and Kevin is generally a wholesome character.

Do yourself a favor and never watch Seinfeld.
If you take away the laugh track, it is astoundingly clear that the main cast are all just evil, narcissistic sociopaths, they never do anything that doesn’t benefit themselves, and they have no problem at all ruining other people’s days or even lives… ironically with the exception of Kramer, who actually attempts, from time to time, to do good things for other people which will not benefit himself, he just goes about them in often dubious ways.

Always Sunny just leaned into this, and made you fully aware that the main characters are sociopaths. They literally show the progress of how they ruined the lives of the people around them. That’s why I love that show. It’s a perfect example of everything not to do in life if you want to be happy and fulfilled.

What I also like about Sunny kinda like Seinfeld is you see the progression from the beginning in the show where they’re sociopathic but still kinda sensible and how overtime they just get more and more unhinged.
In Seinfled, all 4 of them eventually inadvertently kill someone.

Even with the laugh track, they are clearly sociopaths. Which is why Always Sunny in Philadelphia is Seinfeld on crack.

I mean, the show literally ends with them all going to prison for generally being pieces of shit. They’re not meant to be role models.

Wasn’t that the point of the show? I remember it was renowned for being one of the first (if not the first) sitcoms where the characters were meant to be disliked.

Kinda I think. At the end they all went to jail for being selfish assholes. George was never a likable character but he was relatable because you see all your own worst parts in him (and then some)b and with Jerry and Elaine also you see that they see themselves as main characters. Kramer is actually less self-centered I think, but then he literally pinches pennies and schemes to make… Pennies

It’s why many people didn’t like the finale. At the end, they basically shove it in your face and say “Look- You’ve been laughing and empathizing with shitty people. Look at how horrible they are” and folks didn’t like the wakeup call.

I hated it for being a clip show.
dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 2 months ago
See, this is why I can’t watch shows like The Office. My sense of empathy and justice kick in hard and I just can’t laugh at what’s going on. Instead I’m just cringing and dying of sympathetic embarrassment, non-stop, the entire time.

I can manage the US office but UK office passes my cringe threshold.

Me too. It is so paintful. What would dozens of people work to produce that?

Same here … when I first saw it I was 50% laughing and 50% heart broken. I’ve made big pots of food before and this is my greatest fear … just walking around with it and dropping it all on the floor. I think of this scene every time I’m in the kitchen.

I did it with a lasagne once and it was heartbreaking.
ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 2 months ago
Chili is bad enough but lasagna! … that stuff takes hours to make depending on how elaborate the recipe is. I would have felt so bad about that and in a strange way, I feel bad for you for having that moment. Hopefully, your next one was enjoyed by all.

It was all this cringe to me. I just couldn’t stand The Office, Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Bridget Jones films, Fleabag…cringe humor just makes my heart hurt.

What a reddit ass response.

I have a friend who I suspect has never raised animals, tell me about the “funniest moment on broadcast tv” in excruciating detail. It was the episode of WKRP when they threw turkeys out of a helicopter and instead of flying, they dropped to their deaths. Apparently, that’s really funny.
He also recounted an episode of Night Court when a couple got in trouble accidentally killing a bunch of baby chickens in a propane explosion.
If I didn’t already, I would have sworn off sitcoms from that.
