''Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee'' is a comedic {{talk show}} web series created by and starring Creator/JerrySeinfeld, which features him [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin inviting fellow comedians along for a drive and some coffee]]. As you might expect, the show's humor derives from the conversations between Seinfeld and his guests. In addition to being funny, the series allows viewers to catch a glimpse of Seinfeld and company behaving as regular people -- albeit ''very funny'' regular people -- rather than as the celebrities they've become.

The show debuted in 2012. As of July 19, 2019, eleven seasons with a total of 84 episodes have been made, ranging from as short as six minutes to as long as twenty-two,[[note]]This is counting the Jimmy Fallon two-parter as two separate episodes[[/note]] with most in the 11-18 minute range. There are also short clip videos called "Single Shots" which center on common threads between the conversations, such as donuts or [[ToiletHumour the sound a ketchup squeeze bottle makes when it releases its contents]], or within the episodes, e.g., left turns or the closing of the car doors to rhythm.

!!Jerry’s guests with TV Tropes pages:

* Creator/MichaelRichards

* [[Series/TheSteveHarveyShow Steve Harvey]]

* Creator/BobEinstein[[note]]the only repeat guest thus far[[/note]]

-->'''Jerry Seinfeld:''' What kind of language do people use? What kind of language--

* MoodWhiplash: Most of the Michael Richards episode is light, but he does bring up the Laugh Factory incident from 2006 - at which point the episode gets a bit more serious as he reflects why he handled the heckling badly.

* SomethingCompletelyDifferent:
** In lieu of a comedian, Jerry's guest in the Season 7 premiere was the sitting President of the United States, UsefulNotes/BarackObama. They also don't go out for coffee, as, for security reasons, they were not allowed to drive off the White House property. They basically drive down to the end of the driveway, then back for coffee in a White House breakroom.
** Creator/ChristophWaltz, Creator/SarahJessicaParker, and Creator/AlecBaldwin stretch the definition of "comedian", given that they are better characterized as actors who have appeared in some comedic roles.

* ActuallyPrettyFunny: Genesis P-Orridge from ThrobbingGristle felt this way about Jerry and Margaret Cho's brief discussion of his plastic surgery (I.e. he and his wife were altered to look like each other and referred to themselves with female and/or plural pronouns).

* SuperBowlSpecial: "The Over-Cheer", a.k.a. the George Costanza/Newman episode that served as a ReunionShow of sorts for ''Series/{{Seinfeld}}'', was actually a half-time special for UsefulNotes/SuperBowl XLVIII. Unfortunately, [[MissingShow that's why it isn't on Netflix]]: they only bought the rights for [[InsistentTerminology episodes, not half-time specials]].
