'Shrinkage!' Seth Rogan, Aziz Ansari, And Kathryn Hahn Play Seinfeld Cast In 'Netflix Is A Joke' Table Read Clip On YouTube
The Netflix Is A Joke YouTube Channel has just dropped a clip of a table read of the classic Seinfeld episode The Hamptons, but this time around the parts are not played by the original cast of Jerry, Julia Louis-Dryfus, Jason Alexander. In a comedic twist Seth Rogan (Jerry Seinfeld), Aziz Ansari (George Costanza), and Kathryn Hahn (Elaine Benes) took on the iconic roles. Though one Seinfeld alum was there to act as narrator, none other than John O'Hurley who also played J. Peterman, Elaine's eccentric boss.
The episode revolves around a trip to The Hamptons where Jerry, Elaine, and George have gone to stay with their friends and see their new baby. The clip released by Netflix Is A Joke is the infamous "shrinkage" scene, where George is walked in on by Jerry's girlfriend Rachel while changing out of his swim trunks after a swim.
Let's just say, the water was cold, and George begs Jerry to explain to Rachel why she didn't get an accurate representation of his manhood.
While it is fun to watch Rogan and Aziz perform the oft-quoted episode, the real standout moment comes toward the end, when Kathryn Hahn's Elaine is brought into the sketch with her (brilliant, as usual) comedic delivery.
Other comedians not shown in the clip, Natasha Leggero, Moshe Kasher, Jack Black, and Brendan Scannell, also performed scenes from two other fan favorite episodes, "The Marine Biologist" and "The Contest."
The show was a charity event for Hilarity for Charity, an organization which helps families dealing with Alzheimer's disease, brain health research, and education, with all proceeds going to the charity.
The entirety of the event is available now to stream on Netflix.
