      Season 1 – Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee

      2012 Comedy List
      90% 10 Reviews Tomatometer 83% Fewer than 50 Ratings Audience Score Comic Jerry Seinfeld is the creator, executive producer and host of this unique series that features vintage cars, funny conversations and a lot of caffeine. Jerry picks up each guest in a special car -- including the likes of a 1977 Volkswagen camper bus, a 1978 AMC Gremlin, a 1964 Studebaker Avanti, and a 1970 Ford Mustang -- and heads to a cafe or restaurant. While the guests are typically comics, one episode features a drive around the White House grounds with President Barack Obama in a 1963 Chevy Corvette Stingray. Read More Read Less

      Todd D I've come back to revise my review 3 times in under 2 weeks. Envy, initially got the best of me. You will find "writer's wisdom" from some very talented people. It is absolutely worth watching if you are interested in elevating any type of performance art. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/29/23 Full Review susan j Hit or miss. Some episodes are marvelous and some are boring and/or the chemistry is off between Seinfeld and the comedian. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a solid 3 star show, not because i dont like jerry seinfeld or his guests. I'll tell you what this show is, atleast what i think happened before this show started: they wanted jerry seinfeld to host a show, period. So he came down to the office told them some things that can not be done as a host, because lets face it, seinfeld probably doesn't want to host shows, he can host the best show there is but he wouldn't host the guests he isn't interested in. So he told them about "his terms" that he thought everyone would be against, and everyone agreed. Now he has to do show.. Im not saying this is what happened, i m just guessing this happened. I watched it, i kept watching it because seinfeld is funny and his guests are funny. But if this show never existed, it wouldnt make any change, and when it is over nobody will remember it. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member I was totally on board until Mel Brooks said "had to hire a black" Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review toby h Love the Ricky Gervais, Will Ferrell and Barack Obama episodes!

      Luke Kelly Clyne New York Magazine/Vulture I cracked up watching all 13+ minutes of it. Jun 19, 2019 Full Review Daniella Bondar New York Magazine/Vulture Who better to kick off Seinfeld's foray into this newfound fondness for coffee klatch-dom than his counterpart Larry David? Jun 19, 2019 Full Review Jennifer L. Pozner Salon.com There's enough playful ribbing and meandering banter in each car and diner scene to keep the average TV fan entertained. Jun 19, 2019 Full Review Dustin Rowles Uproxx Somehow, [Jerry] Seinfeld and Co. have managed to bring pointless banality to a whole new level. Jun 19, 2019 Full Review Jack Seale Radio Times It's lavishly filmed and, in truth, probably only semi-improvised. But that offhand, in-the-room magic is there. Jun 19, 2019 Full Review Ryan Bort Paste Magazine Though the show's premiere was highly entertaining, it will be interesting to see how the series unfolds when [Jerry] Seinfeld doesn't already have 30 years worth of inside jokes built up with his guest.
