A Costanza Moment

Have you ever watched a show in which a character is going through a situation that is so embarrasing, so humiliating, that you the viewers begin to feel uncomfortable? That is what I call a Costanza Moment. Named, of course, after George Costanza of sSeinfeld fame, because no character in the history of television had more cringe inducing moments that ol' Georgie. Why do I bring this up? Because Fox has started airing edited versions of the superlative FX comedy, It's Always Sunny in Philidelphia, a show that is seemingly built around a series of Costanza Moments. No show makes me laugh so much while trying not to hide my head in shame. The second season will begin aring on FX on Thursday, June 29, but Fox will be airing the first season, with some edits, Sundays @ 9:30. Watch and feel funny.
