To me he always just pointed things out i could relate to, makes me laugh sometimes....but he def isnt laugh out loud funny....
Jerry has said himself that he was never naturally funny.

Comedy was always something he had to work on and when he's having a bad set he never improvs, he only sticks to his material.

Much different than someone like Chappelle

Exactly, I was thinking that while watchig the special...I liked it, thought it was pretty funny, but I wasnt laughing like when i watch chapelle or Bill Burr

Edit:also not sure if its because ive seen every episode of the show a million times but his stuff feels dated or just old

Thought it was solid. But if you aren't a Seinfeld fan obviously you're not gonna like it. He did a lot of old jokes from the show but mainly new stuff. I was entertained.

I didn’t think it was funny because he started off doing old jokes. I couldn’t even get to the new material because he started with the old shyt.

Honestly, new or old, I just don't find his style of joke telling funny.

His observations are more :ehh: than :russ:, even at the best of times.

Didn't make it through the whole thing. I did like the parents/cereal part of it though. That made me laugh.
