Film Review #10: Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee (web series)

http://comediansincarsgettingcoffee.com/
So, basically, this is a little show where Seinfeld chooses a comedian, arranges to get coffee with them, selects a car he finds fitting to said comedian, and then, well, goes and gets coffee with them in the car.  They just have conversations, and a cam crew films it.  Supposedly, it's not set up, but that's (at least in part) bullshit because at one point Seinfeld decided he'd take a detour onto another road to swing by some place for sightseeing or something, and they had a camera on the corner to show them turning the corner, armed by a cameraman.  I'm still willing to believe the conversations are improvised, however.  All around, it's mellow, laid back, entertaining, and pleasantly funny (yeh, it better be).  All together entertaining.  A good look at people in the business when they ain't workin' (other than Seinfeld) and aren't busy attacking the paparazzi trying to get the very shots we're looking at.  Swing by, take a look.  It can get almost a tad droll at times, but only if you're impatient like me and no outlandishly brilliant line has hit your ears in the last six-and-a-half seconds.
