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!

16. larry king has stated that he does absolutely no research before any interview. he wants the interview to be "spontaneous". so you may think he is just playing dumb but he really is just ignorant- on purpose! I saw the interview- that part anyway, and its just like most of the others- a lowest common denominator Q&A- and do you think he "remembers" the seinfeld show? he doesn't remember what he had for dinner last night- HE IS AS OLD AS DIRT. i know i'm not hurting his feelings because he doesn't own a computer and never has. i wonder if CNN is hoping he will kick the bucket on the air- for ratings of course- because he is the epytomy of SOFTBALL interviewers. did you see paris hilton's chat with larry? he asked her if she does drugs and she said no- there was no follow up to that question, no defining drugs or drug use. he is just a publicity platform, like a store's front window.

17. They're both a couple of has beens. Its common knowledge King does do homework or prep work before his interviews---claims it keeps him openminded. Uh, the real reason is he is having trouble keeping up with that young wife he promised a singing career to and the young boys they now have that could qualify as great grandchildren for him.

Jerrys coming out act is wearing thin on most. The cookbook rip off and Imelda Marcos shoe gifting to Oprah his wife pulled is shameful. Than Jerry's hateful comments about the real author on Letterman shows how shallow that Hermit really is.

The Bee Movie Publicity and overkill shows how Hollywood Insiders take care of one another. I hope the thing bombs.

Larry and Jerry---made for one another.

18. Seinfeld needs to be careful about those zingers. King was getting repect when Seinfeld was in diapers

20. I agree with 5 & 6. Does Seinfeld think he GOD???? He's an @$$#0l@. He's nothing but another jerk that thinks he's God Almighty

21. Please watch the real show unclipped. It was a joke and they we're both kidding around. Geeze this is a example of created editing. Larry knows Jerry very well and he knows his show was not canceled and that they just decided to call it quits.

24. While Seinfeld may be arrogant, I agree with the respondant that said that King should of did his research. Also, in recent times, this hasn't been the first time that King has made a major mistake. When interviewing nicole brown simpsons sister during the recent OJ affair her called her Nicole. Moreover, during a recent interview with the remaining beatles he called ringo john(lennon). Basically, if you ask me Larry should be retiring soon. He probably doesn't do nearly the amount of backup preparation needed for his talk-show and many nights it shows.

25. since some are saying A&E production people have known for years that the Dog used the N word, than its safe to say Jerry and Larry David knew Kramer was an N word using Racist while making Seinfeld.

If that turd goes on Letterman one more time to do either an Act of Contrition like he did when the Kramer dibacle blew up, or to rag on the author whose ideas his own old lady stole, I think I'm going to throw up. And than pushes that stupid bee movie on everybody

Whats with Letterman kissing Jerrys ass all the time? What is he, the go to guy for Seinfeld?

Go back into hiding Jerry, memories of what you once did are better than the mess you are making in the present.

26.

Seinfeld makes $60M a year in Seinfeld royalties alone. Loser Larry makes NYET & maybe gets1M viewers today vs. Jerry's 75M of 10 years ago.

PS - Jerry is cool & is known for getting exited whereas Larry is a low IQ Dino fossil & should be put to out to pasture.

27.

To the idiots that think "has beens" - Seinfeld alone rakes $60M/year in Seinfeld show royalties - & King has a net worth of $200M - so you are the minimum wage losers.

28. Hilarious- I was laughing so hard I was crying!

29. if A&E production people knew Dog was using the N word, than so did Jerry and Larry David, that Kramer was using the N word.

Thanks Jerry for calling on every single person in HOllywood, Oprah, and the Talk Show circuit to hype that Kids Cartoon you're calling a Movie. Funny how you and your wife can get your "stuff" hyped, but no one else can. Hope you're the one paying all these people and "friends" to push that Bee cartoon.

Overkill usually means its not going to be a good movie. And whats with the McDonalds commericals you're using to push it, when your wife is pushing a kids eat healthy book?

Whose zooming who?

30. Larry is brain dead. It was a stupid question and he should refresh his mind on who his guest is before he talks with them. Give it up Larry. Your brain cells aren't what they use to be.
