JERRY BEFORE SEINFELD
September 19, 2017  | By David Bianculli

Netflix, 3:00 a.m. ET

 

SPECIAL PREMIERE: Jerry Seinfeld signed to do two comedy specials for Netflix, and this one, his first, is a smartly autobiographical trip back to his comedy roots. Seinfeld returns, physically, to one of the first comedy clubs where he got his start, and performs some of his earliest material – while, at the same time, presenting new jokes and a new, older perspective. It’s a very funny hour, which is no surprise. But it’s a delight that Seinfeld, as with both his Seinfeld series and his streaming interview show Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, continues to come up with ways to present and discuss comedy in fresh, increasingly focused and undiluted ways. Highly recommended.
