Didn't millennials watch it growing up? Someone's not getting their generational terms right
The years for Millennials go up to 94-96, Seinfeld finished in 98. I doubt many that young would have seen it. I was born in 86 and I barely watched Seinfeld re-runs.
?? What do you think millennials were doing after 1996? Did they just phase out of existence?
People had Seinfeld on in my college dorm during the mid-00s. It was one of the most syndicated shows of its era. If you remember 9/11, you remember Seinfeld.
I commented on someone who seemed to think that millennials wasn't the correct generation because millennials must have grown up watching Seinfeld. Many did, but many didn't. I know many people around my age that didn't watch it so it's fairly safe to assume that people who were 2-4 years old when the show ended might not have seen it, even re-runs. Remembering it and watching it enough to have an opinion on it are two different things.
