Trigger warning… topics of a sexual nature in comedy in the video
Elaine’s date takes ‘it’ out before saying good-night. Elaine then explains the date to Jerry and Kramer.
Like watching a lot of 90’s TV (or older TV), there is a certain amount of cringe and headshaking. But generally Seinfeld gets away with it all for its progressive stance.
However I noticed this Seinfeld clip which seems so much darker in the age of #metoo. It was obviously bad then but the laughter adds a certain amount of extra pain to the whole clip.
