12: Seinfeld in the City

In HBO's show SEX IN THE CITY, 4 ladies play the polar opposites of our friends in SEINFELD. The topics on Seinfeld, often including social taboos of the 90s are included in Sex in the City. They also mention the taboos of the 2000s.

These four women have very similar lifestyles that Jerry, George, Elaine, and Kramer had. Samantha Jones frequently floats from job to job, and many times, has no formal occupation at all. Carrie Bradshaw writes for a column, a job, similar to Jerry's comic night career. She is able to write whenever she wants, similar to Jerry never appearing in a traditional 9 to 5 work schedule. Elaine is similar to Miranda--both career ladder climbers, as Miranda eventually becomes partner in a law firm.

They are also adult children, always mentioning they want what they can't have, and how social etiquette doesn't always apply to them; they can talk about anything they want, and do anything they want. Sex in the City could be considered the Seinfeld of the new generation of TV enthusiasts.
