Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld‘s seminal sitcom will finally get the physical release it deserves. The complete “Seinfeld” series will debut on Blu-ray and 4K UHD next month, just in time for the show’s 35th anniversary and Columbia Pictures’ 100th anniversary.

The physical releases will officially ship out on Dec. 17, and are available to pre-order on Amazon starting today.

The upcoming release marks the show’s first leap from standard definition discs following an extensive and comprehensive 4K upgrade for the series. It will be presented in two separate editions: a Blu-ray edition featuring a high definition presentation of the series in a 1.78 format, and a limited edition 4K Ultra HD edition featuring the entire series presented in 4K resolution with High Dynamic Range at its original 1.33 aspect ratio.

In addition to all nine seasons of the show, the new discs will also come with hours of special features including including deleted scenes and commentaries from the cast and crew.

“Seinfeld, remains one of the definitive TV sitcoms of all time, forever altering the way comedy could be approached and what was acceptable behavior from characters you watched week in and week out. The show started off with a minuscule six-episode order at NBC (not exactly a vote of confidence) and yada yada yada ended in 1998 with 76 million people tuning into the series finale. Few shows have embedded themselves in the pop culture landscape more so than “Seinfeld,” making things like “double dipper,” “re-gifting,” and “Festivus” household terms.
