Lack of Seinfeldian Serenity

Seinfeld With Seinfeld finally getting online play on Hulu starting June 24, it's time to stop digging out your season DVDs and time to pull out your laptop. But once you've watched all nine seasons six or seven times (and the Festivus episode a few-or twenty-more times than that), you might start developing lupus. So hitch yourself to a new comedy, and make sure you won't have to live in a bubble. [Photo via Seinfeld] VeepVeep Finding yourself in the blanket of Julia Louis-Dreyfus' unique comedic voice was one of the best parts of Seinfeld, which is why Veep is the best show you can watch to bring yourself down from a Seinfeld-high. Featuring beautifully-crafted profanity, new standout comedic actors, and some old favorites, watching Veep feels like sitting down with your mom's crazy best friend who insists you call her "Aunt Selina": sometimes gloriously uncomfortable, constantly brilliant, and underwear-wetting funny.

However, Louie has proven to be the ideal follow-up to Seinfeld: dark, confrontational, and relevant, Louie doesn't quite have the zingers that Seinfeld was sure to deliver, but it forces its audience to think and to relate, sometimes through cringe-worthy moments. But don't worry, you'll get your laughs, guaranteed--they're simply, in typical Louis C.K. form, a little longer, but sure to deliver. Plus, Jerry Seinfeld even makes an appearance a couple of times--playing himself, of course--so this is a must-watch for Seinfeld fans. [Photo via Louie]
