but haven't watched any episodes since Michael Richards' N-word rant a few years back.

I's too bad. Also Seinfeld himself very recently in a "New Yorker" interview blamed the political left/PC culture for the demise of edgy TV comedy. Like his comedy was ever even close edgy.

Julia Louis Dreyfus, a well known progressive and she of the THREE TV sitcoms and even more residuals, disagrees with him.
