Jerry Seinfeld announced today the release of a new series of vignettes tied to his two-time Emmy®-nominated Crackle series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee titled Single Shots.
Inspired by a small cup of espresso, Single Shots are two minute-long vignettes with Seinfeld and past Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee-featured guests discussing one specific topic. The first episode, premiering today, is titled "Donuts" and includes scenes of various comedians including Tina Fey, Sarah Silverman and Brian Regan talking to Jerry about the popular fried dough confections.

Says Seinfeld of the fun new shorts: "If you're a fan of 'Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee,' we have just made a new version of the show and it's called 'Single Shots,' like a little espresso. It's a bunch of different comedians in a two-minute episode on one subject. Some stuff you may have heard, some stuff you've never heard, but we hope you like it."
The episodes from Single Shots include both previously aired footage from
Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee as well as additional, never-before-seen footage.
Since its debut in July 2012,
Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee has delivered more than 55 million streams, garnered rave reviews, and earned Jerry Seinfeld two consecutive
Primetime Emmy® nominations in the Outstanding Special Class - Short-Format Nonfiction Programs category as well as two recent 2014 Webby Awards for Best Individual Performance (both the Webby and the People's Voice Award). Additional accolades include a Silver Telly Award in 2014 in Comedy, and two Bronze Telly Awards in 2014 for Branded Content with Acura and Use of Humor; a 2014 Webby Media and Entertainment Honoree and Branded Content Honoree for Interactive Advertising and Media; and a special Webby Award in 2013 for Outstanding Comedic Performance.
