"Jerry Before Seinfeld" is the title of Netflix’s stand-up special starring comedian Jerry Seinfeld that will chronicle his return to the intimate Comic Strip in NYC that launched his career.
The hourlong special will start streaming September 19 on Netflix.
"Seinfeld" fans will be familiar with some of the gags in the new hourlong special, as early seasons featured the comic doing work onstage.
"Jerry Before Seinfeld" is interspersed with never-before-seen material — including a library of legal pads with every joke he’s written since 1975, childhood videos and more — and features the jokes that put him on the comedy map.
The special is part of the big deal Seinfeld signed with Netflix in January that includes moving his "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee" to the streaming service from Crackle.
The pact also includes another new Seinfeld stand-up special as well as the development of scripted and non-scripted comedy programming for the online network.
