Before Jerry Seinfeld was a top stand up comedian, he was just like everyone else when he did his routine at The Bottom Line in NYC. He was so naturally funny even when he was just 25 back in 1979 telling that joke.
Before Jeremy Piven was getting people roles on Entourage, he was auditioning to be George Costanza on Seinfeld. He looks the same now as he did when he wad 27 in that 1993 episode.
Jerry Seinfeld has gotten some of the biggest names in comedy to drive with him, and now he has the biggest name in the United States riding with him on the new season of his show Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. That name is Barack Obama! The comedian didn’t say how he landed the President, but he did say, “‘How did I get here?’ ‘Is this really happening?’ The President’s humor and generosity are the only reasons this was even possible. He was so easy and fun to be with. Being President and just a cool guy to hang out with at the same time made the experience my own personal moonwalk. It was an unforgettable day.”
You can stream that unforgettable day on Crackle, December 30th at 11:30p as they ride around in a 1963 Corvette Stingray Split Window Coupe.
Back in the ’90s, Jerry Seinfeld and Garry Shandling had two of the biggest comedies on television. Today, well, they are relics of what used to be.
So why did they two comedians get together? They are shooting an episode of Seinfeld’s Comedian in Cars with Coffee.
Even though Jerry Seinfeld had one of the biggest shows of all time, he hasn’t really worked on television since. Last week, he was photographed with hands up on the back of his head at a lemonade stand he was working at with his kids, so has he hit hard times? He wife Jessica Seinfeld answered that question. She said, “Lemonade dreams crushed by local neighbor but not before raising lots of money for @loverecycled. Thanks to all of our customers and big tippers! 🙋🏼🙌🏾 thanks Xander and Jaden for crushing it today with Julian and Jerry.”
The only hard times he is having is dealing with an annoying neighbor who won’t let his kids and him raise some money for charity.
