Seinfeld's 'Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee' - Page 3

totally agree w/ the last two posts. kinda meh, just felt waaay shorter and too much time in the car.

did enjoy the airbag/eggs/young king bits. maybe the extra bits will be decent (they come on monday i think, there's like 4 for the LD one if people haven't seen those).

I liked the young king bit, and Jerry's "what's great is you actually think that hand will do something", but also thought it was meh, and I love Gervais/Seinfeld.

I think the natural feel or w/e it is Seinfeld is going for here works poorly with the amount of time they have to work with. If it's going to be this short I'd rather it just be them talking about 1 or 2 topics they know about before hand, and drop the car/coffee stuff. As is it felt rushed, and felt like like they were trying too hard to make each other laugh.

It has come to my attention that Gervais is an atheist. Afaik he has never mentioned this before.

I must have missed this. Was she like the special guest waitress in the coffee shop or something?

Or was she the one offering Jerry vouchers to her cash wash?

I'd be surprised if any episode of this can compare to the LD episode but I'll definitely keep watching. Jerry is underrated as hell as an actual comedian; I'd watch this show if it was just him alone talking to himself.

I'm not having any luck finding it on youtube right now, but for anyone that likes Seinfeld in this setting, its definitely worth catching the round table he did with Gervais, Louis CK and Chris Rock on HBO if you haven't seen it.

Seinfeld's probably gonna have a Chris Rock episode and a Louis CK episode. Chris Rock is a friend and he did Talking Funny with Louis CK. And Seinfeld can obviously get anyone he wants.

Hopefully there's a Steven Wright episode too. And a Gary Shandling episode, and a Richard Lewis episode. And a Larry Miller episode after he recovers from his head injury. And a Jeff Garlin episode.

Go play the song and try to whistle along at the end now, it's impossible.

Although this one seems to be an exceptional situation, there are indeed an insane number of insane cars driving around/parking around LA.

I'll still watch because I'm a fan, but we're just one step away from "Comedians on the toilet taking a crap."

Last edited by EvilSteve; 08-07-2012 at 02:06 PM. Reason: yeah i'd probably watch that too

third one is up now, i'd never heard of the guy before but he was pretty funny, not as good as the one with larry david of course but still a good laugh.

Had to check to see if this was a real thing.

I suspect Brian Regan is good at trivia.

His story in this episode about the co-worker at the toy store had me rolling.

You should check out his stand-up, Brian Regan is considered one of the best. I don't think there are any other comedians today as universally loved as Brian Regan, he's a real purist.

This show is actually breaking some ground. They edit it down to like 21 minutes like a normal TV show, but they break it up into a 12-minute episode, and then 5 or 6 clips, and ration them out. That's gotta be the best way to do a web series right now.

On the internet people have much shorter attention spans. I think the way they're accounting for that is just perfect.

The Alec Baldwin episode looks great. Can't wait.
