I'm a big fan of Zack Galifinakis's very weird show, Between Two Ferns," which was done for the Funny or Die website. I've only seen a handful of the episodes, but that was enough to love the thing. When I read the other day that Netflix has made a feature film based on the show and is releasing it soon, I decided to check more of the episodes out, and they were just as wonderful -- well, for my taste. (And clearly for many others.) But just as clearly, I'm quite certain that the oddity of the show isn't for everyone. Still, it's held in high enough esteem that President Barack Obama famously appeared on the show, to help promote the Affordable Care Act to young adults. I posted that here. I thought I'd start posting a few. This one below with Jerry Seinfeld actually came about as an off-shoot of when Galifinakis appeared on Seinfeld's web series, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. And when they visited the Fern set, Galifinakis invited him on as a guest, which they included in the Comedians in Cars... episode. I suspect that was set up beforehand, but regardless, it was great fun.
