“Nostalgia binging” is something many of us have grown to love. For some, it’s comforting to watch Jerry, Elaine, George and Kramer do absolutely nothing on “Seinfeld.” For others, watching Fran Fine and Mr. Sheffield fall for each other makes them believe, at least for 30 minutes, that love is real.
