Comedian Jerry Seinfeld announced today that he has collaborated once again with Sony’s video-streaming service Crackle to create a series of brief vignettes dubbed Single Shots. The project is an offshoot of Seinfeld’s Emmy-nominated web series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, according to Multichannel News.

Each Single Shot episode (like coffee, get it?) will offer about two-minutes runtime, and will apparently feature the same improvisational comedy that Seinfeld began exploring in his 15-20 minute …Coffee series, in a more clip friendly format. The new series’ first installment – Donuts – is available to watch both on Youtube and via Crackle’s official page, and features back-and-forth chats with Tina Fey, Sarah Silverman, and Brian Regan. Each episode will center around a single topic, with the fried hoops of dough clearly being the focal point of today’s premiere.

Crackle announced back in May that the fourth season of …Coffee would premiere on June 19th. The fifth and latest episode of the series guest-stars Jon Stewart, and previous episodes this season have featured quips and jabs from Aziz Ansari, Robert Klein, George Wallace, and Sarah Jessica Parker. The new Single Shots episodes include both previously aired material from …Coffee as well as never-before-seen footage, company officials said.

The 8 best QLED TVs for 2024
Hisense U8N QLED TV.

Editor's note: The best time of year for TV deals is during Black Friday. In addition to many of the first deals on new products — like $300 off on the Sony Bravia 9, the best overall QLED — it's the perfect time to pick up one of last year's models if you can find them. Check out our other Black Friday deals for even more savings on the best headphones, laptops, and more.

If you’ve been shopping around for a new TV, your brain is likely chock-full of acronyms and tech terms. We’re willing to bet that you’ve seen one group of letters again and again while researching the best TVs of 2024: QLED. An acronym for “Quantum Dot Light Emitting Diode,” a QLED TV combines traditional LED backlighting with a layer of quantum dots. (We have a full explainer that answers the "what is QLED" question, too.) When charged, these dots enhance the brightness, colors, and contrast levels of a QLED, making for some of the most vibrant colors you’ll ever see on a modern set. And because they can get so bright, QLED TVs are some of the best sets for brightly lit rooms.

The 6 best OLED TVs for 2024

Editor's note: The biggest shopping day of the year — Black Friday — is almost here, and there are already TV deals you can grab. You can get Samsung's 65-inch S90C for only $1,000. It's a deal that we think makes it the best OLED to buy right now. You can save on more than just TVs on Black Friday. Check out our other Black Friday deals for more sales on headphones, streaming devices, phones, and more.

If you're on the hunt for the best TV for whatever you're into — movies and TV, sports, or gaming (check out our list of the best gaming TVs) — sitting at the top of the TV pyramid are OLED TVs. In lieu of traditional LED backlighting, OLED TVs use millions of self-emissive pixels (that create their own light and are not backlit) to create rich colors, inky blacks, and zero light blooming — in short, arguably the best picture in the business. Over the last several years, LG has been the predominant manufacturer of OLED TVss, but now the company competes with Samsung and Sony in the OLED marketplace.
