Sunny or Seinfeld...who ruined more lives??

So, I still watch Seinfeld reruns a couple times a week as well as catching It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia about as much. Both shows feature a pretty self centered group who wreak havoc on those around them with little regard.

So, that got me wondering, which group had a worse affect on the people around them?

​​​​​ A buddy of mine commented that the Seinfeld crew ruined more quantity wise, but the Sunny crews path of destruction was more intense.

​​​​​Babu, Soup Nazi, Bubble Boy, Jackie Chiles or the McPoyles, the Waitress, Cricket, Ponderosa etc.

I've been watching a lot of Sunny lately on Hulu, so I'll say Sunny.

Especially the Extreme Makeover Home Edition episode

Re: Sunny or Seinfeld...who ruined more lives??

I've seen every episode of Seinfeld many times. Going through them right now. Their selfishness is on full display again and again.

I've only seen pictures and gifs of Sunny. I've only heard of its reputation. I also assume the title is highly ironic.

So all of that said, I'm going to have to say Sunny, without a doubt.

Jerry stole an old lady's marble rye.

Yeah, Cricket was the first poor soul that I thought of. Sunny wins this by far!

Re: Sunny or Seinfeld...who ruined more lives??

'Seinfeld's' plots were different than 'Sunny' as they were harmless and Jerry, Elaine, George and Kramer got their karma at the end of the show. For example, Jerry lost Teri Hatcher simply because Elaine told him she thought they were fake, when they turned out to be real but spectacular. That is pretty much how every show ended is the Big 4 on Seinfeld screwed up some relationship/friendship they had because of their stupidity and that other person just left. Now 'It's Always Sunny', they literally ruined alot of lives like Cricket to begin with.

Re: Sunny or Seinfeld...who ruined more lives??

Agreed that it’s Sunny by far. I’ve always thought of Sunny as Seinfeld turned up to 11

Edit: sorry about the bold text, I can’t fix it.

The cast of Seinfeld we're self centered assholes who inadvertently affect the lives of others.

The cast of Sunny come across as malicious self centered assholes who would intentionally ruin the lives of others.

Even Susan dying wasn't really George's fault. He purchased a product from a business. They weren't identified as "Toxic Wedding Invitations" or even dangerous, just inexpensive. If I buy cheap bologna instead of Oscar Mayer, it still has to be safe to eat. The group's "Eh, whaddya gonna do" reaction was callous, but none of them harmed Susan.
