Season 7 marks another turning point for Seinfeld. Itâs the unrivaled top show on TV. Itâs been on long enough that the characters start becoming zanier versions of themselves. There are many classic episodes â one of which âThe Soup Naziâ may be the most well-known of them all.
Itâs also the final season for Larry David, and itâs felt with the quality in the two subsequent seasons. The two part episode âThe Cadillacâ marks a noticeable shift in the outlandishness of the show.
We go back to a season long arc â Georgeâs engagement to Susan. While I dislike the way it ends, the Susan character adds a good dynamic to the season as a whole.
We meet the Maestro, Sue Ellen Mischke, and The Rabbi. We get more Jackie Chiles, and J Peterman becomes a great secondary character.
Season 7 also solidifies Jerry as one of my favorite characters. Heâs greatly improved on his acting and has his own tendencies explored. His opening standup takes a back seat and I actually missed it.
And I loved his girlfriend of the week (Samantha Smith) in âThe Friars Clubâ
My favorite episodes:
The Engagement, The Hot Tub, The Soup Nazi, The Secret Code, The Pool Guy, The Caddy, The Seven, The Doll.
Today is Seinfeld Day! Celebrate with the last great season of the show!
