He's not wrong and many comedians have shared similar sentiments before.

"People don't watch a select few cable / public access TV shows at a specific time slot anymore, because of woke" -- Literally Seinfeld's argument in the article. What a fucking idiot.

Do you think he's seen and is upset about the "google Jerry Seinfeld 17" thing

Is this 'Antifa' in the room with us right now, Jerry?
Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read.
I know 50,000,000 Seinfeld fans can't be wrong but he is and always will be one of the most powerfully unfunny people I've ever seen do anything.

Kinda proving his point when your only examples are two 30 year old shows.

although I think blaming a side is silly

Death, taxes, and Jerry Seinfeld complaining about the current state of entertainment.

He's not as bitter as Jerry Lewis, but he'll get there.

Nothing really affects comedy. People always need it. They need it so badly and they dont get it, Seinfeld said. It used to be, you would go home at the end of the day, most people would go, Oh, Cheers is on. Oh, MASH is on. Oh, Mary Tyler Moore is on. All in the Family is on. You just expected, Therell be some funny stuff we can watch on TV tonight. Well, guess whatwhere is it? This is the result of the extreme left and P.C. crap, and people worrying so much about offending other people.
90% chance you didn't even read the article to see how stupid what he's saying is.

ugh
It don't matter. None of this matters.
he/him
They've done away with all that great conservative comedy we all used to enjoy
Sack to crack, going to town
Weird that Jerry would say that when his buddy Larry David had a hit comedy for the two decades. So yeah he's wrong.

Note I didn't realize Curb stated in 2000. I didn't realize it was going on for 24 years with a six year break between seasons 8 and 9.

There are also dumb fucks who share sentiments that the Earth is flat.

Well he is not wrong

theres very little evidence of any funny modern comedy

I like how these old comedians act like the extreme left are the ones running multi-billion dollar studios. Always Sunny proves him wrong along with several other shows. Even Curb Your Enthusiasm, a show he was on multiple times, wasn't hampered by any "radical liberal wokeness".

These older comedians who became unfunny (or always were) and still rely on dated jokes and stereotypes of the 20th century and don't get as many ticket sales or roles offered to them anymore can't help but to blame everyone else for their own tired dreck of comedy. Not to mention they treat stand up comedy as some sacred act and any criticism is considered to be oppression and suppression of free speech.

Jerry can't seem to accept that what people find funny changes with time and comedians who don't adjust to the times just fizzle out.
The commercial says that Church isn't for perfect people, I guess that's why I'm an atheist.
In my experience I see the right as easier to offend then the left.

These have been around for almost 20-25 years with an established fanbase. Jerry isn't wrong at all about it. The extreme left can be insufferable at times and that's coming from someone on the left. It's hard to make anything funny without them trying to ruin things.

It's a select few users. I wouldn't put much weight on it. They're allowed to feel that way even if it does seem black and white.

Larry David is exactly the type of person who is counted as "extreme left."

Most comedians will also freely admit that they're deeply troubled and insecure, and that's why they're comedians for a living. Yet then we're supposed to believe that they're on point when they whine that they aren't getting enough attention.

"Seinfeld" and Jerry Seinfeld are as edgy as a bowling ball. He knows nothing of what he speaks. He's just an old man yelling at a cloud.

Pretty much all the comedians with similar sentiments are unfunny hacks that think punching down is the ultimate form of comedy. When it's just being lazy.

A gay person just have to exist in some show for them to throw tantrums about "forced agendas" and "politics"

The thing is a lot of leftists still love south park despite them being peak enlightened centrist. A rightist will try to boycott and cancel everything that do not feature a straight white men or sexualised women

Also Brooklyn 99 was pretty popular and they didn't need to make fun of trans people 99% of the time like conservatives do

Why an I still on this website?
idgi.

there have been tons of absurd, subversive, offensive, etc. types of comedy throughout the years, and it wasn't like they failed (if any of them failed) because the "extreme left" said anything bad about them.

iirc, as far as TV goes, studios are also moving away from scripted material, so I feel like, if a show/movie isn't given much of a chance, it's more on the executive side.
