The Smothers Brothers are the best thing about this video. I've always loathed Seinfeld's standup, but his show was hilarious because of his acting and his collaboration with Larry David. Thanks for this little time capsule.
It's fun to remember that he wanted to be a standup comedian before he became a TV star. That show he has about Coffee, Cars and Comedians is perfect for him because he can meet and worship real standup comedians like Eddie Murphy, Barack Obama, and even lesser known amateur ones like Norm MacDonald.
You knew Jerry was going places. In the Young Comedians Specials it was A Hall of Fame line up. These stand ups changed comedy forever. Smothers Brothers gave Jerry a shot. He nailed it.
@@stylianosisaakidis3565 Sure, these jokes seem lame, but that's because they've been told so many times since he first told them. Now you finally know where the missing-sock joke originated. And the complaining-about-wanted-posters-in-the-post-office joke originated. And the complaining-about-how-long-the-weather-report-is joke. And the an-extreme-can-be-meaningfully-understood-by-everyday-standards joke. And he managed to get through it all in only 8 minutes. 8... long... minutes.
This is exactly what made me really notice and appreciate Jerry Seinfeld. Notice the total absence of any vulgarity, bad language, etc he gave an old time comedy performance without having to resort to any vulgarities like so many contemporary comedians do.
The Smothers brothers always are so polished in delivery. They always include a joke that backs up some previous banter for Tommy to give Dickey a comeuppance of sorts.
Amazing how consistent Seinfeld is through the decades. Just being himself, I guess. There's probably no other place he feels at home. He was made for this.
I taped this special when it first aired on HBO in 1981 (I believe) and watched it a countless number of times. It’s 2023 and this is the first time I noticed that Dick Smothers mispronounces his name. And after such a great routine and intro, too. Can’t believe I’ve never noticed that before.
My wife and I saw Seinfeld in Vancouver a couple years ago and we were in tears nearly the whole show. Like a good wine he just seems to get better and better. Of course his style of humour might not appeal to everyone, and he does reuse a fair bit of material but he packed the house for 2 or 3 nights. Even with all the money he has he still loves to get out there on stage. Now that's loving what you do.
21:07 I had to do some research to understand that joke. From Wikipedia about the Senator: "Hayakawa was news media reporters' favorite fodder, as he was often found napping through important legislative voting." You're welcome!
I was there...the Roxy on the Sunset strip. Funny, I saw that the Smothers Brothers were playing and nowhere did it say on the tickets or announcement that it was a taping of an HBO special. Richard Lewis killed at the show as did Harry Anderson and Howie Mandell. I had seen Seinfeld on Carson a few times before this and he did much of that same material.

H-Town My kids would always lose a sock. They would asked me, “mom where’s my other sock?” I always told them that a burglar must’ve come in the middle of the night to steal one sock. Same thing with library books. Now I use that line on my grandkids!

Great hearing Seinfeld talking about pajamas as a suit and heading out. You can't go in to a store these days and not see people in pajamas and slippers in a store. We sunk to the laziest times . Too sad.
Yes. That was a common mistake when he first hit the airwaves. In fact, in an early episode involving an exterminator, the exterminator referredd to Jerry as Mr Steinfeld. "Sein" is an uncommon prefix. "Stein", on the other hand, is quite common in Jewish areas.
@@markfriedman5706 You're right. And as Seinfeld became more popular in the '90s, the mistake of "Steinfeld" became more of an intentional joke than actual error. (Unless you were my co-worker Dave back then, who continuously made that mistake- he was a clueless idiot).

Funny how Murphy's jokes appear far ahead of her time as opposed to Seinfeld's. He would never use those jokes today but I bet he'd use some of hers. This coming from a huge Seinfeld fan.
@Mark Johnson - Yeah but she came before Roseanne. All comedians get inspiration from the ones who came before. Interpreting human behaviour in a funny original way is the key to success
I remember watching Saturday night live one time just randomly in the 80s I guess, back in those times you just turned on the TV and watched whatever was on it, anyway, Jerry was doing stand-up on snl and nobody was laughing and I wondered if he was doing a speech or something and then at the very end he said that taxi drivers had names which were just lists of consonants cause they're from Eastern Europe or something and he got a few chuckles and I realized it was supposed to be a stand up routine
Yeah, he actuall spent years pretending to be a standup comedian before he became a big TV star. His career was kind of like Norm Macdonald's, minus the lack of success.
From this performance, I would never would have thought Seinfeld would get anywhere. He's remarkably dull. And that whole "Did you ever notice?" business. How did he ever make that work?

Seinfeld digs deeply into a situation like he's mining diamonds whereas Maureen turns low hanging fruit into some brilliant jokes. They're different. The bottom line is who makes you laugh more. Also, Maureen never took her stand-up career beyond the 80s in North America while Jerry achieved legendary status and still is successful at stand-up.
Maureen was much funnier than Jerry. I’d tend to think that her now being a month short of 81 years old has something to do with her career slowing down a bit:^)
Maureen’s jokes assumed her audience was up to speed on current events (Chappaquiddick, Sen Hayakawa) whereas Seinfeld stuck to everyday life. I thought they were both good but personally enjoyed Maureen’s subject matter better.
At 9:52 Seinfeld's Post Office Wanted Poster bit. On Comedians Getting Coffee he was talking about his ONE bit that ALWAYS succeeded without fail when he was starting out and this was it. Dana Carvey said his imitation of Jimmy Stewart as a waiter was HIS never-fail bit and it is priceless.

Can't understand the clueless people here who are saying Seinfeld wasn't funny. ALL of his bits were smart, polished and very good. I guess we'll have to wait for history to decide. Ok, that was quick.
I have never found Jerry Seinfeld funny. Amusing at best. Clever at times, but I’ve never laughed at anything he has ever said. I watched this whole set and never cracked a grin. Just wasn’t that funny. Comedy is very subjective.

Picture it. 1974, and 18 year old Jerry Seinfeld is about to get fired from his first job writing for television: "Okay, here's the story. Bobby, Cindy, Marsha, Peter, Greg and Jan all have this contest...."
I ran into the Smothers Brothers just hanging out at a bar on the east side of Manhattan somewhere in the seventies ,I couldn't talk to them because they were smothered by throng of women.

These where the days when I was totally into stand up comedy. I want a flannel brief case! Thanks for posting.
Tom Smothers was a rhetorical genius. He understood words and their meaning.
Not funny. For example, that "sex/six" joke was embarrassing...
Wow
BEST stand-up Comedian EVER! I always appreciated the fact that his comedy was never vulgar!!!
I loved listening to Smother’s Brothers records as a kid. “My brother Dicky Smothers put termites in my Lincoln Logs…”
I always love Jerry Seinfeld, but Maureen has some really good material. I liked her tons!
Yes Maureen was great. I new her after her years of comedy and everything else she did in terms of Hollywood. God bless you Maureen. 🙏
What a lady! Came here for Seinfeld, stayed for Maureen
Me too ! "Ronald Reagan: 'Heaven Can Wait.'"

Maureen Murphy was excellent in this.
Delightful, thank you.
He made me laugh almost nonstop. He really does make jokes about everyday things, something that has to be re-applied in comedy, today.
Yeah, he's very mainstream that way. I didn't appreciate him dissing satellite imagery, even though it was funny.
I think I rarely laughed at his stand up and yet I liked it. The TV show, OTOH I loved and often lol.
Cool to see a young S(t)einfeld that long ago. Maureen Murphy was nonstop quick laughs. Me likey.
He made millions and millions with "did you ever notice this? did you ever notice that?"! thats what makes America great!
