Not even a second though. Seinfield is one of my top 5 comedy tv shows. Absolutely love it. Comedy at it's best.

Seinfeld is the easy winner here, hands down.

Surprised this is so one sided. It’s a nice match, but a high quality drama will always beat a top comedy. The Good thing about West Wing is it’s really funny at the same time as being so dramatic

 

[John McHenry]

The majority of you are wrong.
