-Welcome back to "The Tonight Show"!
We're hanging out with Jerry Seinfeld!
[ Cheers and applause ]
This is very exciting. As of today,
180 episodes of "Seinfeld" available on Netflix.
-Yeah, so that's 200 million subscribers that they have.
This show has never been out to that many people before.
It's really -- So, like, different countries,
different places that have never seen it.
It's kind of cool. -Yeah, it's bizarre.
-Yeah. -I think it's fantastic.
-Yeah, yeah, I'm very excited about it.
It's weird to me that the show is like --
You did that "Sopranos" joke. It's true that these shows
go away, and then we breed a new audience...
-Yeah. -...and then it's a new show.
-And this -- But now it's international
'cause Netflix knows how to do it.
Yeah. -Do they dub it?
Yeah. So, Uruguay or wherever you are.
There it is. Very exciting.
-You know, I also -- I -- When the show was on --
reran locally, I didn't watch because I was such a superfan
that I was like -- Nancy, my wife,
watches you all the time. -Right.
-And I go, "I got to take a break.
Because... -Why?
-Well, because I -- I start talking.
I start talking like you, and I --
-[ Laughs ] -You know?
And I do that. Yeah, and I talk like you,
and I do that, and I go -- I can't be --
I have to be me for once, you know?
Yeah. -And so I was me
for the last couple years.
And now I feel, with Netflix, I'm gonna be you again.
-Now you can go back to being me. Yeah.
-Yeah. But 180 episodes is a lot of TV.
-Yeah, it's a lot.
We made nine years worth of shows.
In those days, you'd make 22, 24 a year.
-Right. And great shows.
-Thank you, thank you. -I don't even know
if there was a bad one. Everything was --
-Everything varies in life. -Yeah, yeah.
But I heard that you did a "Seinfeld" promo on Netflix
where you were a Lego.
-Well, what happened is, the Lego company came out
with a model of the set -- of the the apartment set
from the series. -Yeah.
-And Netflix saying, "Hey, we need to do a promo for your show
coming on the platform."
And I thought, "What if I could get in that toy?
I want to get in there somehow." -Yeah. Of course.
-"Can you get me in there?" and they said,
"Yes, we're Netflix. We can get you in there."
[ Laughter ] So they did it.
They got me in there. And here it is.
-Let's check it out.
-Coming this fall to Netflix, "Seinfeld"!
It's must-see TV like you've never seen it before.
Inspired by the wildly popular Lego set model!
it's Lego Seinfeld! [ Laughter and applause ]
He's blocky! He's stompy!
He's one half real organic matter.
He has C hands!
And he's every bit as funny as his human counterpart.
-I am the human counterpart!
They shrunk me down. -Quiet!
-I guess I'll have cereal.
-His milk never spoils.
♪♪
His pants clean in one wipe!
-I don't know what this is. What are we selling here?
-Oh, sorry, Jerry. You have no say.
We bought the series, and we can do whatever we want with it.
And you. -But I don't want to be a Lego!
[ Loud crunching ]
Pbht! Pbht!
I don't even know who I'm working for at this point.
Hello? Hello?
This phone is not real.
-Lego Puddy sold separately. -Yeah, that's right.
Lego Whatley not available.
Oh. What happened to Whatley? He did like five episodes.
-Six!
-I don't know how this happened, but I am not a toy.
-All 180 episodes only on Netflix.
[ Cheers and applause ] Come on!
That is how you do it right there.
That is -- That looked -- That looked great!
-It was fun. -You were a Lego!
-Yes, I became a Lego.
-I love that. I thought that was so --
Oh, it was perfect. -Thank you, thank you.
-I -- I heard that you just went on summer vacation.
-No. [ Laughter ]
No, I did not. -Oh.
-I don't really like going on vacations.
I don't like that somebody else thinks
I'm gonna like something. Just -- Just the idea --
You go to these places, "Here's some things you'll love!"
You know, the stand-up paddle board.
-Yeah. -You know, it's like
a goldfish comes up and goes, "Is that your top speed?"
and I go, "Yeah, I'm wide open. This is it."
-You know, I can't -- I can't get that the Lego thing
out of my head, that scene.
-Yeah, it's kind of a you bit, isn't it?
-I would love -- I feel like I would love to be a Lego.
-Yeah, I know, you probably would.
[ Laughter ]
-I mean, it really seems like my kind of thing.
-It is kind of -- your kind of thing, but I already did it.
-Yeah. [ Laughter ]
-I want to be a Lego. -You want to be Lego?
-Please?
-Okay, if you want, I can take you into the Lego world
if you want to. -We can do this?
-Yes. [ Cheers and applause ]
All right. What do we have to do?
Come on over here. -Okay.
All right. What do we have to do?
-All right. Now I want you to...
say -- you have to say, "I don't want to be a Lego,"
but you have to say it like I said it on the series.
Remember? "I don't want to be a pirate."
-Yeah, of course, yeah. -Which is --
That delivery is kind of like a kid who's been told,
"This is your Halloween costume."
-That's correct. -And he doesn't like it.
-Okay. "I don't want to be a Lego."
-You know, you got to get up there.
You know, comedy, you got to hit those notes.
-I -- I don't wanna be a -- -I don't want to be a Lego!
-Higher. -I don't want to be a Lego!
[ Laughter ] -No, no, no.
Is that too high? -That's too high.
And then it's -- it's got a down and then up.
-Okay. -Want me to do it for you?
"I don't wanna be a Lego!" [ Laughter ]
-"I don't want to be a Lego!"
-That's it. Okay. You've got it.
All right. Hold my hand. -Uh-huh.
[ Laughter ]
-I don't want to be a Lego! I don't want to be a Lego!
I don't want to be a Lego!
[ Ting! ]
Wow! -Oh, my God!
-This is so neat. [ Cheers and applause ]
It feels so good.
This is amazing being a Lego! -This is great!
-Yes! Well, what do -- what do we do now?
-Well, let's continue the show. -Yeah, okay.
All right. Have a seat, please. -Oh, sure.
Don't you need your desk? -I do need my desk.
-Okay. Well, let me help you up on the desk.
[ Laughter ]
-Well, you got -- [ Grunts ]
You have to...
[ Laughter ]
[ Both grunting ]
You got to roll over.
[ Laughter ]
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Anyway, you were saying?
-Uh, yeah, I was just talking about, um...
You know, I don't really enjoy going on vacations that much.
-Did you get a chance to get away this summer?
-I did. We went on a little trip,
and -- I don't know. [ Laughter ]
I just, uh...
You know, the things they have there,
you know, like the zip line.
It's like, you know, let's risk decapitation to find out
what it feels like to be dry-cleaned.
[ Laughter ]
What's the point? -What is the point?
-Yeah. And I'm sure if we did
get seriously hurt on this thing,
we'll do very well navigating the court system
in this fifth-world island nation
that's being run by Komodo dragons.
[ Laughter ] -That is so funny.
-Oh, thank you. Thank you.
[ Legos clattering ]
[ Cheers and applause ]
Pbht!
-Jerry, could you have ever imagined
that when "Seinfeld" first premiered,
we'd have things like Netflix, and you'd be able
to watch your show, like, on your phone?
-No, I could never imagine such a thing.
To me, the phone,
I kind of feel bad sometimes for Google and Siri,
'cause they always have to be so nice, you know?
"On it!"
"I'm sorry. I didn't get that."
-Yeah. You know, just once in a while,
I feel like they should go, "Really? You don't know that?"
[ Laughter ]
"No, no. You rest. I'll get it. I'll figure it out."
[ Laughter ]
Just once I want to hear Siri go.
"Why don't you learn how to enunciate,
and maybe we don't have to do this?"
-That's exactly correct.
-"Not always my fault, you know."
-[ Laughs ] [ Cheers and applause ]
[ Legos clattering ]
[ Laughter ]
Enough water -- Enough water for me.
[ Laughter ]
This -- This has been fun,
but I have other guests I have to interview.
-Oh. -So I think we should get back.
How do we -- How do we get? -You want to get back?
-Yeah. How do we do it?
-Um... I know how.
Let's stand up. [ Grunts ]
[ Laughter ]
-Ohh! Pfft! What was that?
-That was a part of your cup. -Okay.
[ Laughter ] Get that out of -- thank you.
-Okay. -Thank you.
The worst thing is... -Come on down.
...when you step on a Lego barefoot.
You know what I'm saying?
[ Laughter ]
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Pfft! -[ Laughs ]
Oh, my God. I had no idea you used a piece.
[ Laughter ]
All right. So, how do we get back?
-Uh, hold my hand. [ Laughter ]
Now just say, "There's no place like 6B."
-There's no place like 6B. There's no place like 6B.
[ Ting! ]
-And that's why your spouse is like a rescue pet.
[ Laughter and applause ] Jimmy?
Jimmy, are you listening to me?
-Oh, yeah. Oh, sorry.
Just never mind.
But thanks to Jerry Seinfeld, everybody.
All episodes of "Seinfeld" are available on Netflix now!
