Seinfeld was the first English show I ever watched. I watched it in 2011-12 in comedy Central. No show has ever been able be more favourite of mine that this. I wish there was some way I could watch it again in a way that would support the creators.
SHB Both shows with Bob Einstein were hilarious. The Lewis CK boat story was brilliant in it’s observational humor in a way Seinfeld’s will never be. John Stewart’s Gremlin story was funny. Steve Harvey’s was funny because of his obvious delight at the Buick.. Jim Carrey was great telling his Letterman experiences. The Best episodes were: Garry Shandling, Jim Gaffigan, and Norm McDonald.
Seinfeld's humor is about stating the obvious which is not obvious to everyone. It is about applying an alternative perspective to the mundane and everyday occurrences of life. Like why are you using headphones. The humor about nothing is about that which is everyday life questioned from the perspective of the humorist using the tools of an anthropologist surveying a distinct culture. Insights which trigger one's discomfort about seeing oneself from the awkward perspectives we often avoid or simply have never realized about how we act or what motivates us. That's Seinfeld. But it really feels like his time is over. The reason being that his humor relies on a level of humility in which he shares these observations as if standing along side us being as bemused as we become. Instead, he is gradually exhibiting a certain superiority and arrogance as though he has figured it all out and no longer depends on others getting the joke. He is no longer the "everyman". He "doesn't want your feedback" because he is certain of his own funniness and his life perspective which no longer depends on you. He's a god-zillion-aire! In "Comedian's in Cars..." he flaunts his success in the style of Jay Leno's Garage and purports that "Comedians" have some special monopoly on humor! Most of those shows are just obnoxious and rely on star power and materialism, not humor.
I agree. He comes off with this strange superiority complex in The Comedians in Cars show.. I mean he writes jokes.. he is a comedian..which is tough..but he’s not toiled away solving the worlds problems. He got lucky. He made it. Well done. Get over yourself. You’re not a god
@@ghostshipone It must be really hard to remain humble when you are worshiped. Seinfeld speaks of his upbringing in middle Long Island to parents who seemed emotionally distant from him. He had access to material resources and friends, but not to an intimate acknowledgement by his parents. Like many of the comedians of his time, his humor is very "meta"... a kind of laughing at the mudane. While Dangerfield was about severe self-ridicule and outrageousness, Steve Martin and Letterman were about making fun of comedy and show business. Seinfield's humor was about observing and exaggerating the mundane. I suspect this reflection on the mundane is an extention of what Jerry's parents found to be the focus in their lives, which Jerry found both irritating and amusing as it tragically was to elevate things which were trivial as the center of their attention essentially missing the opportunity to make more meaningful their relationship with Jerry himself. This humor turned out to be enormously successful, which was rewarding for Jerry both financially and as an acknowledgement to what Jerry considered in the world to have an overblown importance. He made a fortune and was finally able to allow himself an intimate partner and children. After the series closed, Jerry seemed to need to establish his capabilities beyond merely being a fluke by reentering standup and developing an alternate show. But the show is really a showcase of his material success almost competing with Leno as to who has cooler expensive cars or cooler famous friends. He does the same comic Schick in his standup that started his career. But he seems irritated by being driven to continue doing it now. In the beginning of his career, there would have been much more adrenaline as well as some part of every unacknowledged child's wish to finally achieve the acknowledgment of their parents. Maybe now he just does not know what else to do with his life, but is not prepared for doing anything else nor would anything else be as financially rewarding. Much of the time now, when they record him off stage, he seems to be giving out advise to younger comics or seeming to try to be just another Joe. But he does not seem to really think of himself as just another Joe....He's a megawealthy, megastar with nothing to prove, yet perhaps some part of him has yet to feel he was really something special to his parents and there is no getting that acknowledgment now. (Of course this is conjecture based on too many RUclips videos of Seinfeld).
@@ghostshipone In my experience, I'm only bothered when I somehow needed a different outcome. What I'm seeking in this exploration of Seinfield is some clues to the universal in all of us. It is to look at Jerry more as a metaphor of what drives us to do and be the way we are. Glad you are not bothered. Happy New Year.
I worked with him on SNL I used to see him at my lawyers office I treated him like a regular guy Some celebrities want normal conversation not the unnecessary hyped put bs A wonderful man God bless him
Funny how he casually came on a bike not looking too pretentious.. little you know that the bike is the most expensive bike on the market well over 10k.. god bless him.. he is the best! Thanks Jerry for what you gave to humanity!
Grew up watching seinfeld in Australia we got it all 6 months later coz well it was the 90,s very popular here ,but not in other english speaking countries weirdly
Used to really be happy anytime Seinfeld was on Carson. Still remember some of the jokes, and I do remember the cotton ball routine. When the series came on I was very hopeful but it wasn't very good. It took a little while then became a big fan of the show and even now, I'll stop scrolling or as Jerry would say "women want to see what's on, men want to see what else is on", whenever I see "Seinfeld" on the list. I've watched the last 3 minutes of an episode many times. I may have a problem... ;)
Jerry's right. WHAT ELSE do you have if you're a writer? That's it...I am a poet and most of my poetry is on the wall along with pics/and my art...my life is on the wall. I know where Jerry's coming from.
@@alexnegri921 Not patting myself on the back...just I'm a poet. And a friend who's written published material his whole life says I'm good. HE SAYS IT...not me. Get off my ass.
Please Jerry Im begging you dont do politics. You've seen how it turns out for others. You'll be attacked. They eat their own. Be the one who didnt go down that road. Please. We need you.
That cracked me up. I could see Jerry setting up a tip jar at the India event and making a ton of jokes about the bootleg videos then point to the tip jar telling them, "OK, any of you that have bootleg copies of my show... this tip jar is for you.". hahahaha
Glad you remembered your wife Jerry. LoL You would have been sleeping on your gold dusted couch if you hadn't. My joke about ovaltine is that he is the brother of Constantine.
Jerry is gonna go over to India and kick a few million butts to get his Seinfeld money. Because, I don't if you've heard but there are a LOT of Indians in India.
Feels like he’s buying his way back into the business. Really funny dude but it’s looking like he won’t age gracefully but instead will go out saying “remember Seinfeld? That was me. I’m amazing.” His new show is funny but in the 2nd season, he often talked over guests and interrupted them to tell his jokes, give advice, or tell an antidote about his career. Nothing against the guy but he’s been poking around for the last 5 years trying to rekindle something and it’s kind of off putting for me.
I loved the show, but I've never found Jerry funny as a stand-up comedian. I don't know why. Maybe it really is like he says, and it's all the presentation and not the joke itself.
Развлечения
Every time he says “George”, I instantly think of the show.
The fact that he’s worth $950,000,000 is mind boggling
He’s rich and can laugh he’s the dream come true
I respect Jerry's seemingly grounded and pragmatic outlook.
Did he save the Ovaltine joke? That one was gold!
TheRealCritique Jerry went through every piece of dialogue and refined it, it was all pretty much him
@@CarlosSanchez-cy5wc Larry was the head writer for the first 7 seasons,,, it was those 2 with a bunch of co writers.

Seems like a nice guy...Hope things work out for him.

I think Michael might know...
This kid is going places! Look for this ‘Jerry’ guy in the future ...

Both are genius, especially LD

Another one of the greats
Waiting for Seinfeld to come to India. India welcomes you with open heart Jerry!
Yeah, apparently we had a parking problem
India gives Jerry gas
Remember what Babu said, Jerry is a very bad man, very bad!!
Jerry actually came to India in the show. Elaine looked so properly Indian in the saree.
@@anujachatterjee6719 That episode was definately was shot somewhere in LA.
I have a feeling this guy is really going to make it.
Already made it. Worth a billion dollars now
I love this man. The reason I want to be a stand up comedian.
Have a seat
Think what you want of jerry or his stand up but his show 'comedians in cars getting coffee' is easily one of the greatest shows ever made.
lol no it's not
Then what is
this is being a fanboy at its best...calm down

There is something about this man that gives me energy.
Mrs. Featherbottom He does transcendental meditation. I think it’s helped him quite a lot and contributes to his overall demeanor.
And hope ! That's because he's permanently on weed ! 😉
When the morning show host tries WAY to hard to be casual on a park bench...
It is hard to watch
We might assume he's a park bench virgin !
They're really good friends in real life.
@@mihails.6398 Not that there's anything wrong with that!
Talking to Stephanoppulus for a few minutes would give anyone a raging headache. He is so glib
Bic pen has been around for a long time. To me it's the best writing pen very smooth on paper.
I worked with him on SNL I used to see him at my lawyers office I treated him like a regular guy Some celebrities want normal conversation not the unnecessary hyped put bs A wonderful man God bless him
I love this man so much! Correction - love his talent!
Moon & Stars you can love both
1:52 . . . now I "get" that episode where George has the Jerry look-a-like girlfriend.
They knew I wasnt normal. 😂
One joke of his I remember was,
Fun for the whole family doesnt exist. 😂
Any Seinfeld fan that doesn't watch his Netflix comedy special isn't a true fan! Amazing special. Jerry is a comedic genius!!!!!!!!!!!
If I'm not the biggest Seinfeld fan, I'm close...can't wait to see the special on Netflix...
Funny how he casually came on a bike not looking too pretentious.. little you know that the bike is the most expensive bike on the market well over 10k.. god bless him.. he is the best! Thanks Jerry for what you gave to humanity!

and this video is 3 years old!!!!?? dint know he was planning to come india 🥺🥺❤❤❤
Comedians usually get better with age, Jerry is an example of this :)
That lady on the right is super fly.
That pinarello is so pretty
Of course he could imagine it... He knew he wanted to be a comic.....so... He created jokes told them became successful... How easy to imagine is that
The way Jerry tells a joke or says something
Jerry rollin' up on a murdered out, full carbon Pinarello.
With DuraAce?
Couldn’t agree more the entire interview I was thinking Man that was a sick bike

He's definitely out on the town with his good time buddies making the scene.
Clear barrel blue Bic pen M nib. . My favorite writing pen
George straight up seducing jerry with that sexy bench pose.
It feels wrong when he calls this guy George.

Wow, really? 😏😏

Be the one who didnt go down that road. Please.
We need you.
This video is much better at 0.5x lol
he is the only comedian where audience keep guessing whether is he funny or not
Jerrys such a sociopath I love it 🤣
casually on a 10k+ bike
this guy has a legendary pair of nashers
Seinfeld show not being on Netflix sucks

It's on AmazonPrime
It's on Hulu
I have the complete dvd collection of seinfeld original
It's going on!
enough Giggly McGiggles
That cracked me up. I could see Jerry setting up a tip jar at the India event and making a ton of jokes about the bootleg videos then point to the tip jar telling them, "OK, any of you that have bootleg copies of my show... this tip jar is for you.". hahahaha
More of a pamphlet really. Having said that...
He saved the both of them, and yet his new special will still be an hour long if he uses them.
jerrys carbon bike is worth easily 10G
Pinarello Dogma with campagnolo wheels.. i thought exactly the same..lol!!
nice bike
"That's gold, Jerry!!!! Gold!"
India is waiting for you man! Come soon
All six of them?
That should fit on a five by eight card.
He likes the pen I like!
which one?
Sparky Tunes Bic pen, clear barrel, blue. Cheap, but reliable and silly to have as a favorite choice.
george is laying down on the park bench
He saved both of them?
He found another??
Bwaaahahahhaaaha
Breitling
of course he has saved them all, you think somebody is gonna get away with stealing from him?
He SHOULD do India!
get some of that indian money😂
Ruben Garza , lol😂😂
He should do that. But not Romania. Here poverty all over.
Only if Chandler wrote down his jokes too....
Jerry is a pretty difficult interview. You gotta be cool to make it work with him, and mainly the interviewers arent that cool.
of course Seinfeld sports the bora ultras, the nicest looking wheelset there is... of course.
Did he save them just for himself? I'm still waiting
what is lara wearing at 8 in the morning?
Seinfeld is now on Amazon prime so yeah he's making something now .
Do you know how much it costs to watch Seinfeld in India ?
Nothing.
well, it's a show about nothing after all.
Romania :D 5:04
Glad you remembered your wife Jerry. LoL You would have been sleeping on your gold dusted couch if you hadn't. My joke about ovaltine is that he is the brother of Constantine.
the host makes this interview unbearable for the general audience. Just look at him...
lmao I know what you mean, the way he's sitting looks unnatural
He’s warring a $10K Watch
While riding a $20,000 bike. The only comedy billionaire.
Yeah, you could comedy coach old georgie for yrs and he'd still be a tragedy.
So he's got about half a napkins worth of jokes?
wanna know what the REAL joke is, george Papadapalis once worked for the white house now he's doing this fluff crap.
And making a lot more than you.
Here is a joke. Who deserves to be in jail more, George Papadapolis or George Stephanapolous?
Isnt George papadapalis the dad of Webster?
Might be a sterotype but ofcourse he will. He wont throw away shit
Jerry is gonna go over to India and kick a few million butts to get his Seinfeld money. Because, I don't if you've heard but there are a LOT of Indians in India.
