Are we over our romance with trans- people?

Interesting take. The selfishness of ALL of the characters is why I never took to Seinfeld, although I LOVE his stand-up.
Would you believe I never saw a single episode of Seinfeld? None?
That’s blasphemy about Seinfeld. Good portrayal of the show I might actually have to sit down and watch this now.
You must watch it. Yeah, I know, even my husband has watched it. And my nephews.
I love watching a well written and well acted character. I haven’t seen this show, it does sound binge worthy.
Embarrassed to say I have never watched an episode of Seinfeld. There must have been something else on at the same time back then:)
Well thank goodness there is one other person ignorant of the various story lines on Seinfeld!
I grew up on a chicken farm. LA isn’t for me. Me, I live in Tucson, where every other person is a writer, some for TV. Selfish is the new black.
Yes, it really is the new black. Unbelievably true.
I loved Transparent too, but will have a hard time watching a third season of people behaving so badly (though I seem to have made it through four seasons of House of Cards). I used to make the same complaint (selfishness) when my daughters watched Friends!
Now that is pretty funny, Kim! At least we’ll have had a break.
I’m going to have to finally start watching this. I need a month of doing nothing to catch up with TV!
I was really shocked that Michael took to it as he did, it’s usually not the kind of thing he watches.
You know, I don’t follow any of that celebrity stuff, so I have no idea what Caitlyn is up to. Haven’t seen transparent, but I always say I’m going to watch it. So now I will!
i didn’t have a trans-romance to get over in the first place – i’ve been keepin it straight my whole life 🙂
Now I have another reason why living in Australia is great – I’ve never heard of Transparent and I think that might be a good thing! Self-centredness is worldwide though so not missing anything there!
I’d not heard of Transparent before. May have to at least give it a try. Although between The Arrow, The Walking Dead, The Flash, and watching re-runs of The Office we have plenty to choose from.
Haven’t heard of it, Carol. But wondering if I will have the patience with people acting out. We have an Indian version of Big Brother here, called Big Boss and it’s absolutely idiotic. I watched a couple of episodes back when we had television and perhaps that’s one reason why I realized I could do without television!
See I couldn’t watch a show like that. Not because of the topic, but the selfishness of the people would make me so unbelievably angry. Like Roz commented above I couldn’t do Seinfeld for this exact reason.
Wow I love Seinfeld, but never seen it from this point of view. You have great insight.
I have never seen or even heard of this show! I am a big fan of binge watching on Hulu and Netflix. Sometimes I am drawn to things that have a train-wreck effect like you were saying, but eventually I am ready to be done with the drama!
