About Seinfeld:
Seinfeld stars Jerry Seinfeld as a stand-up comedian whose life in New York City is made even more chaotic by his quirky group of friends who join him in wrestling with life's most perplexing, yet often trivial questions. Often described as "a show about nothing," Seinfeld mines the humor in life's mundane situations like waiting in line, searching for a lost item, or the trials and tribulations of dating. Co-starring are Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Jerry's ex-girlfriend and current platonic pal, Elaine Benes; Jason Alexander as George Costanza, Jerry's neurotic hard-luck best friend; and Michael Richards as Jerry's eccentric neighbor, Kramer.

Not really. Jerry always had it super easy (even admitted to such multiple times) and always kind of had a smugness about it toward George and to a lesser extent Elaine, who did actually have some normal difficulties. I always sympathized with George because although he was a character and had some self-inflicted wounds, he just never got the good dice rolls in life Jerry did, but he always pushed through.
