Too funny!

When two great joy's of life are merged, what does one get? Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. This is a comedy web series I have been watching for a while and contemplating if I should write a piece about it. I hope you agree that is does deserve the spotlight on FulTrot. I love it!

CICGC is an American comedy series created and directed by comedian Jerry Seinfeld in which he picks up a guest comedian in vintage cars and takes them for coffee. Each format is different and allows for some input by the guest comedian.
In 2013 CICGC won a Primetime Emmy Award for "Outstanding Special Class - Short-Format Nonfiction Program"
