Seinfeld to King: "Do You Know Who I Am?"

It's hard to tell when comedian Jerry Seinfeld is joking and when he's serious, but he looked a bit perturbed when Larry King mixed up his details about Jerry's classic show. What's the deal with that?


On Thursday's "Larry King Live," the King asked Jerry if "Seinfeld" was canceled back in the day, and Jerry seemed genuinely shocked that Larry (his "Bee Movie" co-star) didn't know. "You think I got canceled?" Jerry shot back. "=I was the number one show on television=, Larry ... 75 million viewers in the last episode." Clearly, Larry is not master of his domain.

As Larry played it off and went to commercial, Jerry threw in one last zinger: "Can we get a resume in here for me for Larry to go over?" Zing!

1. Sounds like Larry needs those arteries in his neck that carry blood to the brain cleaned out again.

2. Just knowing this old man is humping that young chippy is enough to make me sick. I remember my grandfathers wrinkly skin before he died at Larry's age. When I'd see it I felt sorry for him because he aged as naturally as possible. Well Larry is doing the same thing but he has that young thang hopping on top of him at times. She must be sick or hard up. He's a hunched over midget with money.

4. Keep your shirt on Seinfeld! Larry can make an honest mistake. Not everyone in the entire U.S. watched the show even though it was great. :)

5. Seinfeld's an arrogant ass... The world would go on fine without him, contrary to what he thinks of himself. I think Larry King proved just how forgettable he is.
His appearance on Letterman ripping Missy Chase Lapine was a disgrace.

7. I think Jerry needs to get his ego in check. Not everyone, especially educated people who are doing their own shows watched Seinfeld. I did not like it, nor do I like him, but that's okay. Many people liked him, he got rich, married a woman who was on her honeymoon when they met, and seems to be happy. Not everyone knows Jerry or Larry. Probably most who watch Larry don't watch Jerry. Egos in check boy, ego in check.

8. For the last 20 years when Seinfeld appears on Larry King's show, they jab each other. It's a bit. Comedy. They are friends. People need to watch more TV.

9. Jerry is an ass. He and that bitch wife of his need to be bitch slapped.

10. Larry King has been on auto pilot for years now. The simple fact is he is too old to do this anymore. His mind has slowed, and he doesn't have the sharp focus needed for this kind of gig.

Larry King called Ringo Starr 'George' a few months back, and Paul McCartney had to remind him, no this is Ringo.

Just retire, Larry.

11. Jerry you are acting like a meshuggeneh! I love you, but you don't have to jump on Larry like that.

12. When a show goes off the air most people think it was cancelled. I was not a fan of the show then. So as I can see I was not alone

13. He is a total cu@t!

14. Fan of Larry - it has nothing to do with ego. If you run a talk show that has guests do your goddamn research - otherwise, what's the point of even having guests? Opinions on Jerry's personality are irrelevant. A talk show host should at least read the info that their staff prepares before the interview.

15. Larry King never prepares for interviews. He always sounds like an idiot.
