These are the top 6 'Seinfeld' episodes of all time, according to Hulu
The iconic and polarizing show ran for 180 episodes and had a profound impact on TV. But to see which episodes are the biggest fan favorites, you usually have to resort to synthesizing a ranking from the "best of" lists floating around the internet and forums.
But now Hulu has decided to give us the hard numbers. The streaming service has the show's back catalog, and tracked which episodes were the most watched from 6/1/15 to 10/31/16.
The results probably won't come as a huge surprise. They're "all classics," as my colleague Steve Kovach put it. And it's true.
