Seinfeld is the German dub of the show of the same name.
Broadcast History[]
In Germany, the series ran from 1995 to 1996 in the night timeslot of Kabel eins, and in 1998 in the night timeslot of ProSieben . From July 1998, ProSieben moved the series to the early evening timeslot, but made some cuts. The stand-up interludes at the beginning and before the credits were cut out and the opening credits were replaced by a self-made opening credit. After the series had been running in the early evening timeslot for half a year, it was moved to the Monday slot shortly before midnight in January 1999. There it continued to run with moderate ratings. When the series re-aired, the original opening and closing credits were used again.
The series was subsequently broadcast by Kabel eins, Premiere Serie, Comedy Central, ZDFneo, and TNT Serie. In Austria, Seinfeld was broadcast weekly in the night timeslot of ORF 2 in two-channel audio (German/English).
