How to watch Seinfeld online: stream all 172 episodes for free

It’s hard to fathom that Seinfeld celebrated its 30th-anniversary last year. Hardly a day that goes by — at least in New York, the city where the series is set and which acts as a major supporting character — when someone doesn’t quote lines of its dialogue or ask, “Remember in that Seinfeld episode…?” The sitcom classified itself as being “a show about nothing,” but it’s actually a refreshingly unconventional show about friendship and taking part in the little things in life together that is relatable to people far beyond NYC’s Upper West Side. In the late ’80s, Jerry Seinfeld enlisted pal and fellow comedian Larry David (the “George” of the show and the man behind HBO’s Curb Your Enthusiasm, which recently concluded its hilarious 10th season on HBO) to help develop sitcom ideas, and the rest is history. Their brainchild turned out to be among the top-rated series the majority of the time it aired between 1989 and 1998 on NBC, and it remains one that viewers go back to again and again. So,  luckily for all, there’s an easy way to watch Seinfeld online in its entirety.

How To Watch Seinfeld In The U.S.

Seinfeld The Strike

Since mid-1995, Hulu has been the only destination where the entire 172-episode run of Seinfeld can be watched free of charge. The Disney-owned service offers a complimentary one-month trial for new subscribers who sign up for either of their regular plans that go for $6 per month for Basic with limited ads and $12 per month for Premium, with no ads.

While Hulu has been the streaming home for Seinfeld since mid-1995, come the end of the year the show will be moving on over to Netflix, who has recently acquired the rights for the next five years, and will present the series in 4K Ultra HD scanned from the original 35mm.

Another alternative to stream Seinfeld (though only a selection of episodes) is through FuboTV, the sports-focused live-TV service that additionally provides access to movies, television series, and news programs. A seven-day free trial is available, before rates starting at $55 would kick in.

For audiences who prefer the purchase-for-download option, they can take their pick from Amazon Prime Video, FandangoNOW, Google Play Movies, iTunes, Microsoft Store, or Vudu, where Seinfeld can be bought by the episode ($2 for SD or $3 for HD) or the season ($20, either definition). (Note: Seasons 1 and 2 are shorter, so they are combined). All platforms except for Amazon Prime Video and FandangoNOW also offer the complete series for $100 — not a bad price to pay for owning every second of what is widely considered to be the best sitcom of all time.

Jungle Cruise is Now Streaming on Disney+ — Watch it for FREE
Jungle Cruise stars Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt on a boat.

Previously, Disney+ subscribers had to pay a $30 new release premium to watch Jungle Cruise. The same premium applied when Disney released Marvel's Black Widow earlier this year in July. As of today, November 12, as part of Disney+ Day 2021, the premium charge for Jungle Cruise is gone, just as it dropped earlier for Black Widow.
Watch Now

But what if you're not a Disney+ subscriber? How can you watch Jungle Cruise on the cheap? You can take advantage of Disney's new, limited-time promotion: A one-month $2 subscription to Disney+ for new subscribers. If you decide $2 is all you want to spend and you don't want to continue your subscription, just unsubscribe before the 30th day and you won't be charged again.

Prime Day, Amazon's annual blowout sale, was delayed this summer due to the coronavirus outbreak, but it's finally coming in mid-October -- less than two months ahead of Black Friday.

Where to pre-order Super Mario 3D All-Stars for Nintendo Switch
where to pre order super mario 3d all stars nintendo switch

As many Nintendo fans have no doubt found out, Mario is set to receive a host of new games to mark 35 years since his initial creation. One of the most notable inclusions is Super Mario 3D All-Stars for the Nintendo Switch, which is a collection of three classic titles -- Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario Galaxy. While not ground-up remakes, each remaster is said to be optimized for the hybrid console, which means higher resolutions, new screen ratios, and added Joy-Con support. Also included is an in-game music player which allows users to play 175 tracks from each game, even while their Switch console is turned off.
Pre-Order Now

What's even better is the collection is out in just over two weeks on September 18. The downside is this is the lack of time players have to secure a copy. To add to the pressure, Nintendo has announced that the title is a limited-run until March 31, 2021. What this means is that the game is available both digitally and physically until then but after that, its future is unknown. This undoubtedly puts a lot of pressure on Nintendo fans, especially physical game collectors who want to secure a copy of the game for launch. Nintendo announced that the game will be up for pre-order from September 3. However, retailer information is scarce and Nintendo's website simply states the information is coming soon. That doesn't mean some retailers haven't already put their orders up.
