did you all ever discuss Seinfeld's car and coffee show? - Page 2

The David Letterman and the Chris Rock episodes are great as well. I hate when he picks the car for the comedian he picks up and they have no interest in the car. Waste...

I didn't notice that they took it off of Crackle where it was always free.

IIRC, in early interviews Seinfeld said he paid himself scale, as the show started as just a retirement hobby and he only wanted enough money from the sponsor (Lexus) to cover production costs. This continued even after the show took off after critical acclaim and moved from its own website to Crackle. But now with deep pockets Netflix involved and Seinfeld making real money, looks like people want to cash in...

The Rickles episode was the best.

I liked that episode, I thought the wagon was hers.
I agree on the Rickles episode.

Norm Mcdonald episode they are in an un-restored Speedster in the pouring rain without windows, very funny. Also funny because Norm has become very fat and is in that tiny Speedster.

You're right. That's kind of sad, all that product placement they did and the brand still didn't register...

The one with Obama is good and you can tell he loves the car..funny when he was not allowed to leave the driveway of the w/house! They do have coffee..and you get another behind the scene's look at things.

Julia Louis Dreyfus, Sarah Jessica Parker & Sarah Silverman were my favorites.

The first few seasons were all about the cars, in the later ones they barely mention the cars and it's all about the guest spots.

The cars are only really there to take the comedians to the coffee spot. It's really about them talking about their craft.

Well, now it is.

Wasn't always that way.

Appeals to a greater audience now I suspect.
