In general, writers classify verbs into two "basic" categories. One category consists of verbs that "tell", and one category is made up of verbs that "show".

Generally, verbs that "tell" are looked down upon because they aren't as efficient at painting a portrait for the reader and are generally easier to include in writing.

In this sense, one would want to consider seem a "dead" verb when they are writing so as to not give the impression to the reader that you are a poor writer.
