Jerry Seinfeld is getting caffeinated for the New Year. On Jan. 2 his popular Web series “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee” will premiere its third season on Crackle and comediansincarsgettingcoffee.com.

The show, which generally runs about 15 minutes or so, is pure Seinfeld. It features the comedian picking up another comedian friend in a new and snazzy car and going for a drive with coffee. In the first two seasons Seinfeld chewed the fat with Sarah Silverman, Chris Rock, David Letterman, Ricky Gervais and Alec Baldwin, among others.

The participants in the new six-episode season have not yet been announced, but a teaser trailer is online that shows the grill of a car overdubbed with conversations between Seinfeld and his guests. Try and recognize the voices if you can.

Currently the show, which is produced by Sony Pictures Television’s Embassy Row, is Crackle’s most-watched original series. It also received an Emmy nod this year in the special class -- short-format nonfiction programs category.
