I dunno.. after seeing nearly every episode more than one time, I don't care much for it anymore.

I still watch the reruns almost every day.

Though some of them are getting old.

I still enjoy it when I see it...

I hardly ever watch TV though, so... I will probably like it for quite some time.

When it is showing on TV-Land and our grandchildren are wondering why it's funny in much the same way I wonder how The Honeymooners is supposed to be funny when my grandparents watch it.

Ditto, and my theory on the matter is that if it appeals to future generations then it will never go stale. I actually only started watching after it went off the air and have still probably seen each episode 5+ times. It's just such a revolutionary comedic sitcom that doesn't try to blend in any mushy heartfelt bullshit like every other sitcom does from time to time, thats why I love it. Really the only reason I keep watching is because when its on no other show is even close to being as funny, so why try to force myself to watch something else when Seinfeld is a lock to make me laugh. I'm sure it will eventually get too old and repetitive for me, but hopefully by then something worth watching will be out. I just don't see the 'aura' of Seinfeld as ever being fully phased out in the near future, and rightfully so.

I still watch it whenever it's in syndication around here. I've seen the episodes a million times and I still love watching them over and over. It's one of the very few shows I watch on TV other than football.
