Rita Panahi applauds Jerry Seinfeld for calling out left’s ‘toxic influence’ on comedy
Sky News host Rita Panahi has applauded actor and comedian Jerry Seinfeld for calling out the left’s “toxic influence” on comedy.
The comedian claimed wokeness is to blame for the lack of quality sitcoms on TV.
Seinfeld appeared on the New Yorker Radio Hour podcast alongside host David Remnick, speaking about the need and importance of comedy in television.
“Well, guess what? Where is it? Where is it? This is the result of the extreme left and PC crap and people worrying so much about offending other people,” Seinfeld said.
Ms Panahi questioned whether the Seinfeld program would even be made today or be considered “too risqué”.

But Jerry is a Hollyweird chomo who used his money to steal a gold-digger 5 months after her honeymoon. Why do anti-leftists suddenly forget how predatory and gross their advocates are? Come on. You're all old enough to know about that time Jerry dated a girl in high school when he was almost 40. God. What's wrong with the societal brain rot in the world? Even channels I enjoy like this eventually make me disappointed. They might as well have skin-walkers Bruce Jenner or Blaire White as guests.

I’m still watching Seinfeld and Friends, nothing new is funny anymore. Well said Jerry 💯 % agree
I refuse to give up the Office. That is my happy place. It was the most streamed show during COVID on Netflix. Enough said!
Tim Allen is another one who appreciated true comedy and didn't care how PC it was. Seinfeld did address homosexuality. The repeated saying "Not that there's anything wrong with that!" was classic.

My generation had Archie Bunker/All in the Family. The show was genius about pointing out prejudices we may not have acknowledged. We need that kind of humor to allow us to reconsider our beliefs. But I don't agree with the Woke and Trans business that is going on.
Is Jerry going to be canceled by the woke left? Probably but I don't think he cares at this late stage of his career. The younger performers I'm sorry for who are afraid to speak out.

It's not that long ago that there was some extended discussion online over whether the movie, "Blazing Saddles" could be or would be made today. The general consensus was no - there are too many woke cry-babies around today who would be traumatized sitting through something so offensive.! Those who would complain can only be those who are completely ignorant of the fact that one of the script writers was a bloke named Richard Prior!

These crybabies today who want people canceled because someone looked at them and made them feel bad should watch this for perspective. Love to see it remade with one of them. LMAO. You tell them Seinfeld.
Props to Seinfeld for standing up to this nonsense. He looks great for 70 also
