Jerry Seinfeld Unhurt in Car Accident | Today's News: Our Take | 4/3/2008
Comedian Jerry Seinfeld escaped serious injury after the brakes on one of his classic cars gave out and the car rolled over. He was driving his 1967 Fiat BTM along a road in East Hampton, Long Island, when police say the brakes failed, as did the car’s emergency brake.Seinfeld, 53, who was driving alone, then swerved to avoid an intersection when the car flipped over yards away from the highway. Police attributed the wreck to mechanical failure.Ever the comic, Seinfeld joked about the incident, but promised to drive more safely."Because I know there are kids out there, I want to make sure they all know that driving without braking is not something I recommend, unless you have professional clown training or a comedy background, as I do," Seinfeld said. "It is not something I plan to make a habit of."He did not require medical attention. — J.R. Whalen read more
New NBC Seinfeld Show Really About Nothing | Today's News: Our Take | 3/7/2008
That is, much ado about nothing. On Friday, PageSix.com enthusiastically trumpeted Jerry Seinfeld's return to TV with a new NBC sitcom described as "Curb Your Enthusiasm, but with Jerry instead of Larry [David]." Which, let's face it, sounds like the worst idea ever, if only for its lack of originality. But fear not, defenders of David, for he shall remain the master of his creative domain. Because it turns out the Seinfeld rumors just flat out aren't true, as both NBC and Seinfeld very quickly came forward to put the kibosh on the story. Yadda yadda yadda.... — Mickey O'Connor read more

Jeers: To Bee or Not to Bee | Cheers & Jeers | 11/2/2007
Jeers to "N-Bee-C" for its incessant Bee Movie hype. I don't blame Jerry Seinfeld for wanting to promote his first big feature film, but did his former network need to devote so much airtime to his not-so-funny "TV Juniors" shorts? (I'm surprised they didn't get Jerry to host a special edition of The Singing Bee, too.) That said, I'm taking my kids to see Bee Movie on opening night, so I guess all the promos worked.Related: Seinfeld Buzzes About Bee Movie, Sitcoms and More.
