The show about nothing still has everyone talking.

"Seinfeld" debuted on NBC over 30 years on July 5, 1989, and is heading to Netflix on Oct. 1 where fans can stream all 180 episodes of the comedy series. 

Created by Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld, "Seinfeld" follows four friends living in Manhattan. The sitcom was nominated for 68 Emmys, won 10, and is widely regarded as one of the best comedies made to date.

The cast has since stayed in the spotlight and landed other major roles, even racking up a few more awards.

After playing a version of himself on "Seinfeld," the comedian returned to his stand-up roots and released an HBO special in 1998 then waited over two decades to release his next special on Netflix titled "Jerry Seinfeld: 23 Hours to Kill" in 2020.

Seinfeld returned to the screen in 2012 when he created the short-form interview series "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee" where he combined his love for cars, talking, and comedy. The show premiered on Netflix in 2016 and ended in 2019.

The star's acting career only took off after playing Elaine Benes. In 2006, Louis-Dreyfus starred in CBS’ "The New Adventures of Old Christine." The show ran for five seasons and she picked up another Emmy award.  

But her most successful role might arguably be as Selina Meyer in the HBO comedy series "Veep." Louis-Dreyfus won six Emmy awards as the vice president turned president. The series ran for seven seasons.
