stanphries the time period was significant actually. Compares to this day in age. Oh God. Damn zombies glued to there phone 24/7. Technology has made things worse and better at the same time
What a great question. I lived in LA at the time and was involved in the TV production business, albeit from the equipment angle, not the talent, nor the production. I did lots of business in Studio City right near Radford Studios (where much of Seinfeld was shot) and plenty around the Paramount lot in Hollywood, on Melrose. Though I didn't sell gear to the Seinfeld show, I sold gear to and worked with plenty of folks involved in the TV shows of the time. There were literally millions of people involved with shooting music videos and every one of them just had to buy $50K or $100K worth of gear. Big deal? Yeah it was. Because they had the money and spent the money. All the production power that gear had can be bought for $2500 today or in some cases done on an iphone. For almost free. I was in a lucky spot, at a lucky time, and Hollywood woop de doo was exciting and dynamic. I can't tell you how it was in Ohio. To answer your question, yeah, It was a special time, kind of the early-mid-80's to the mid-late-90's; I will tell you that at least in my business, money was massively easier to come by and flowed much more easily than I find today. Computers were astronomically expensive (early 386 PCs were $6K **but people must have had the money to buy them, because buy them they did**. I think I had the sense that it was a special time but...I kind of thought it would go on forever. It was also a sort of special time because the country was coming out of the 70's which was quite a dreary time except for the drugs.
this material is an example of why jerry belongs up there with the likes of George carlin. a true comedy legend. the airplane stuff actually sounds very much like something carlin would say.
Jay and Jerry have had a friendly but competitive relationship since their days as LA club comedians in the late 1970's. They were two of the original "observational" stand-up comedians of the 1980's.
Leno was born in 1950. He started going grey in his late 30's. Some people are genetically disposed for greying early, like Leno and Johnny Carson. Carson colored his hair until he was in his mid-40's, but Leno has said that he never colored his hair.
i love jerry and seinfeld to me is the best show ever made, ive watched every episode about 100 times but Jerry please just talk and get away from material :)
***** I've been watching comedians in cars since the very beginning, Im a huge Jerry Seinfeld fan, now days he does alot of talking, but back then we didnt really know much about him. Thats why i would have liked him to get away for from material for a few mins or so
People...its all set up! Of course Leno likes him! He is pitching him underhand softballs TO DO HIS ACT! He was at height of his fame...and Leno's ratings would go thru the roof anytime he was on!!
Because RU-vid will take down the video due to company copyright claims. They're too stupid to realize it would promote their shows/movies & push sales up smdh
Ha ;) Day guy is in cahoots with night guy. You better believe Jerry had exhausted the possibilities for day guy when writing the joke. Jerry left no meat on the joke bone.
because in the 90s.. the only time you saw peoples underwear was when they were about to get busy.. now for some reason.. i see every single persons boxers..
The pic-and-save in my city burned down years ago & was never heard from again. Now that I think about it the owner probably did it on purpose in order to collect on the insurance.
ghostshipone that's false. They are extremely good friends in real life. Jerry has known Leno for about 4 decades and is one of the first people he met when Seinfeld moved to California
