The series premiered on digital network Crackle on July 19, 2012, and has since run on Netflix. As of May 2015, it had been streamed nearly 100 million times. The series moved to Netflix in 2018 for the debut of its tenth season. Its eleventh season premiered on July 19, 2019. Seinfeld has since indicated that he may be done working on the series.Episodes feature Seinfeld introducing a vintage car selected for a guest comedian, followed by a drive to a café or restaurant where they drink coffee. Episodes diverge from the format spontaneously, from making unplanned stops to interacting with members of the public. Production History Seinfeld said that the roots of the concept traced to a DVD extra he made for his 2002 documentary Comedian along with a later trip he made after purchasing an old VW Beetle in New Mexico, subsequently filming the return trip to the east coast with a friend.WEB , Jerry Seinfeld Opens Up About ‘Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee’: ‘This Is Just What We Like To Do’ , August 23, 2012 , Huffington Post , Katla Mcglynn ,www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/08/23/jerry-seinfeld-comedians-in-cars-getting-coffee_n_1825716.html, Later, describing the birth of the series, Seinfeld said the series birth was “an experiment“—as “kind of a guess”.WEB , How Jerry Seinfeld Defied the Odds and Won the Internet , June 10, 2014 , Huffington Post , Danny Groner ,www.huffingtonpost.com/danny-groner/how-jerry-seinfeld-defied_b_5476918.html , Before the series was developed, Seinfeld was told by leading social network advisers including those at Facebook and Yahoo, that a show length exceeding five minutes had little chance of success on the web.

Format Episodes are estimated to cost about $100,000, with guests being paid in cash and the initial raw shoot lasting on average three and a half hours, which is then edited over a two-week period down to a 12 to 20-minute episode. The process uses a lean production staff, involves a minimum of network interaction and is designed as an edited and unscripted talk show without an audience that can be comfortably watched on a smartphone.The show is formatted around the car drive and “movement,” as Seinfeld believed that “when attempting to show the meandering, silly and sometimes deep conversations that comedians share, you have to remove the audience to keep the participants from dropping into their acts,“WEB , Seinfeld Schools Letterman On ‘Comedians In Cars,’ A.K.A.

There’s no narrative [to] drive the story. We know what happens. We know they’re going to get coffee. You need a kinetic energy to move it along. Moving people around keeps them awake.“The format is similar to Robert Llewellyn’s Carpool, which ran for over 100 episodes between 2009 and 2011.

With the move to Netflix, a subscription service, Heritage expected an increase of quality rather than episodes that were “exactly the same in terms of look and feel as the ones that came before,” and further that the series feels more like “a product” with less creativity regarding its selection of guests.WEB, Heritage, Stuart, 2019-07-19, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee: how Netflix totalled Seinfeld’s star vehicle,www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2019/jul/19/comedians-in-cars-getting-coffee-netflix-jerry-seinfeld-star-vehicle, live, 2021-09-16, The Guardian, en,web.archive.org/web/20190719085956/https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2019/jul/19/comedians-in-cars-getting-coffee-netflix-jerry-seinfeld-star-vehicle, July 19, 2019, Awards and nominations The show has earned numerous Primetime Emmy Award nominations and has won several Producers Guild awards.{| class=“wikitable plainrowheaders” width=100%
