They were actually 23, people just got old faster back then thanks to the hole in the ozone layer causing a time dilation effect.

I was literally having this conversation with my mom when she tried to argue that Seinfeld wasnt a show targeted at boomers. I was like Gen X was still mostly in high school or college when this show came out, all of the actors are like a year younger than you. Who do you think was watching this when it came out?

This may come as a shock to you, especially if you came through the American education system, but in the 90s there was in fact people in their forties.

George was about 29 or 30, when the show started, but looked older since he was balding, and Elaine was in her late 20s.

I think Jerry and Kramer were the oldest.

edit: too late.

But it was really popular with high schoolers and college students, same with Friends. So it was Gen X and Boomers.

yeah and imagine thinking that the only reason late-30s date early-20s is because the man wants it.

Jerry IRL was 35 when the show first started.

Him and George on the show were supposed to be classmates.

The situation they're in makes for an interesting point in life even if the show was meant to be a comedy there's a whole "show about nothing", but it also made light of the fact you don't ever have to change, nor are subjected to having to graduate into typical customs, such as settling down, having a family, buying a home. This was further emphasized by how George's marriage went to shit (even though he wanted it to not happen). They traverse through their 30's as life and time passes them by, but at the same time they are legitimately living. There's a strong maybe between Jerry and Elaine getting back together, but they never force it to be.

A good share of us carry some semblance to their situations and attitudes towards everyday matters in life.
