_Published 2016-07-06. Netflix came onto the scene with its first major original programs—House of Cards and Orange is the New Black—only three years ago, in 2013. And yet the streaming service seems to have effectively redefined what "television" is_

[_Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee_](http://time.com/3896957/comedians-in-cars-getting-coffee-trailer/), Jerry Seinfeld’s comedy [web series](http://time.com/4164832/seinfeld-obama-comedians-cars-coffee-corvette/), is set to move to Netflix from Sony’s streaming service Crackle in late 2017.

The unconventional talk show, which premiered on July 19, 2012, features Seinfeld and a guest comedian discussing minutia of everyday life in a vintage car on the way to get a coffee. President Obama, Mel Brooks and Jim Carrey are among the guests that have featured on the popular series.

Now 24 episodes of _Comedians_ are set to move exclusively to Netflix, with subsequent instalments to be added in 2018, [_Variety_](http://variety.com/2017/tv/news/seinfeld-ditches-crackle-for-netflix-1201961933/) reports. In addition to the new episodes, Netflix will also get the 59 old episodes previously streamed on Crackle (it’s the service’s highest-profile offering).

As well as handing over _Comedians_, Seinfeld has signed a production deal with Netflix, which will include performing two stand-up specials, and developing scripted and nonscripted content, the [_New York Times_](https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/17/business/media/jerry-seinfeld-takes-comedians-in-cars-to-netflix.html?smid=tw-nytimes&smtyp=cur) reports.

“When I first started thinking about _Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee_, the entire Netflix business model consisted of mailing out DVDs in envelopes. I love that we are now joining together, both at very different points,” Seinfeld said in a statement quoted by the _NYT_.
