Synopsis
Seinfeld, Season 1 — watch online on iFILM: five episodes, five small disasters, the first sketch of NBC's most improbable television landmark. Jerry, George, Kramer, and Elaine have just arrived on the same Manhattan block.
The plots are deliberately slight. Jerry tracks down a woman's office building with George so they can "accidentally" run into her on the street. Kramer forgets to shut the apartment door and the place gets cleaned out. Elaine immediately calculates whether she could move in once Jerry leaves. George drags his friend into a stock tip. Nothing resolves cleanly. Nobody learns a thing. That, the show will keep insisting for nine more seasons, is the whole point.
Season 1 is a rough draft — Kramer in particular is a different character here — but the four leads already lock in their rhythms. Watch Seinfeld Season 1 online on iFILM.
