Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
For Seinfeld, the third season's--for want of a better word--the charm. The show has found its misanthropic voice (by season's end, a fed-up Elaine tells herself, 'I gotta get some new friends'), the ensemble has a firmer grasp of their characters, and the writers rise to the occasion with episodes that have entered the Seinfeld pantheon, including the Seinfeld equivalent of a Very Special Episode, 'The Boyfriend,' with Keith Hernandez and the J.F.K. parody, 'The Library,' featuring Philip Baker Hall channeling Jack Webb as library bookhound Bookman, 'The Pez Dispenser,' and 'The Keys,' with an L.A.-bound Kramer winding up on Murphy Brown. Michael Richards, especially, comes into his own this season as Kramer. The first two seasons built up the mystique of this 'man-child'/'parasite.' So while he was absent in season 2's 'The Chinese Restaurant,' he is now out and about with the close-knit, albeit dysfunctional, trio. Julia Louis-Dreyfus has some of her giddiest golden moments, zonked on painkillers in 'The Pen,' or, as a bored party guest in 'The Stranded,' telling an obnoxious bride-to-be that 'Maybe the dingo ate your baby.' And don't get us started on Jason Alexander as George, series co-creator Larry David's neurotic and angst-ridden alter-ego. To paraphrase what Julia Roberts said of Denzel Washington, we don't want to live in a world where Alexander doesn't have an Emmy.
But it's the extensive bonus features that give this four-disc set 'hand' over other TV-on-DVD releases. The 'Inside Look' episode intros, optional pop-up 'Notes About Nothing,' and candid, albeit a little too casual, commentaries offer a fount of information to even the most obsessive Seinfeld fans. We learn that even the most outrageous episodes, such as 'The Pez Dispenser,' were inspired by real-life events. Especially telling is Alexander's observation that Jerry never really socialized with the other ensemble members. This has extended to the commentaries: Seinfeld pairs with David on some episodes, while Alexander, Richards and Dreyfus team up on others. They are gracious to the guest stars and extras, and mostly mum on Jer. --Donald Liebenson

Another great season of Seinfeld DVD's. I love all the extras you get when purchasing the boxed sets. I can't wait to own them all!!!!
Rating: - Just getting started, but already amazing
Seinfeld Season 3 is one of the lesser known and less popular seasons of Seinfeld. But it is no less amazing, no less hysterical. Only 2 or 3 episodes into Season 3 do you feel that the spectacular cast has found it's groove, a groove that will remain for many years to come. Season 3 has many classic Seinfeld episodes and deserves the same attention that the more popular and latter seasons often conjure. The re-visited and oft mentioned history of Jerry and Elaine's relationship ends Season 3 and does not disappoint with lots of laughs.
Rating:  - Jerry Seinfeld: The Brittney Spears of Comedy
Let me be the innocent child in "The Emperor's New Clothes," and proclaim:
Jerry Seinfeld is not funny!
Oh, I know what you're thinking: Here's a guy who thinks Seinfeld was unfunny, but his cast was hilarious.
No. At best the rest of the cast was mildly amusing (although Jason Alexander is a talented actor, he is not necessarily hilarious, hence the two stars).
Because, when it comes down to brass tacks, "Seinfeld" *was* a "show about nothing" -- in every sense of the word:
The contrived semi-plots, with choppy one-liner segments.
The cloying, annoying, ejaculatory bass riffs between shots.
Jerry Seinfeld posing as this hipster: Yeah, right, a hipster with a ridiculous bushy mullet. At best, Seinfeld was an Upper West Side Jewish version of Jeff Foxworthy. You want to know why people think Jewish men are smug, metrosexual wimpish know-it-alls? I submit Jerry Seinfeld as "Exhibit A." If a WASP played a Jew such as Seinfeld, he'd be accused of bigoted racial slurs against the Jewish people. Grating, like fingernails down a chalkboard.
Oh, and speaking of freakish hair-do's: Is there anyone alive who thinks that Michael Richards as Kramer would even inspire a single chuckle if shorn of that ridiculous Brillo-pad hair? Within three episodes, he'd have been out of the door, after having been reduced to haranguing black hecklers in the studio audience: He's a [n-word]! He's a [n-word]!
