Trailer For Jerry Seinfeld’s Netflix Special “23 Hours To Kill” Surfaces: Watch


Watch the first trailer for Jerry Seinfeld’s upcoming comedy special “23 Hours To Kill.”

Back when theaters were open and people were allowed to attend public events, Jerry Seinfeld recorded his first stand-up comedy show in 22 years for Netflix at the Beacon Theatre in New York City. Now set to finally air on May 5th titled 23 Hours To Kill, the streaming giant has decided to come through this week and share the show’s first trailer.

The teaser finds the comedian acting out a James Bond spoof, complete with an eye-patched villain and a ray gun slowly approaching the bound comedian. “Who designed the bathroom stall with the under-display viewing window, so we can all see the lifeless, collapsed pant legs and tragic little shoe fronts that are just barely poking out from underneath the impotent belt lying helpless?” he asks the crowd in the clip.

The hour-long special was filmed during Seinfeld’s residency at the Beacon Theatre in New York.

Seinfeld’s first special for the streaming giant, Jerry Before Seinfeld, released in 2017. 23 Hours to Kill is the final special of the deal the comedian signed with Netflix in 2017. The deal also includes the rights to stream the show Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee. The 11th season of the series released last summer.

Netflix canceled its first-ever comedy festival last month, citing coronavirus concerns. David Letterman, Amy Schumer, Kevin Hart, Norm Macdonald, Ali Wong, Wanda Sykes, Pete Davidson, Dave Chappelle and more were scheduled to perform. 

“Based on the latest CDC guidelines we’ve decided to postpone our Netflix Is a Joke Fest, which was scheduled to begin April 27,” Netflix explained in a statement. “We’ve been blown away by the excitement from fans and we will work to reschedule it when we can. In the meantime please everyone take care, hold onto your tickets and we look forward to seeing you all soon.”

Earlier this year, Simon & Schuster announced Seinfeld will be releasing a book in October.
