Jerry Seinfeld Interview: 'Emotion And Conflict Is The Essence Of Comedy'Leave it to Jerry Seinfeld to take his observations on common marital problems and base a whole television series on it. He knows couples fight. If only an objective party could referee those arguments. The Marriage Ref: Tom PapaIn "The Marriage Ref," Seinfeld's new primetime venture, married life takes center stage as disputes between real-life couples are revealed, examined -- and ultimately judged. For the first time, audiences will be able to look at these fights, analyze them and declare a winner. Tom Papa was personally chosen by Jerry Seinfeld to serve as host of NBC's "The Marriage Ref," and has toured with him for the past eight years. As a seasoned stand-up comedian, Papa has starred in two stand-up specials on Comedy Central, and his next special, due out later this year, is directed by Steven Soderbergh. A familiar face to late night television, Papa has more than ten appearances on the "Tonight Show with Jay Leno" and is also a frequent guest on "Late Night with Conan O’Brien" and "Late Show with David Letterman." These marital tiffs will run the gamut of disagreements -- quirky, funny, relatable -- all with the signature Seinfeld tone. "After 10 years of marriage, I realized the comedic potential of this topic is quite rich. This is the way marriage should be; everybody needs a ref," said Seinfeld. "I wanted to bring the sports simplicity to your complicated, endlessly difficult personal life." At the center of the action and making "the call," is popular comedian Tom Papa ("The Informant!" "The New Adventures of Old Christine"). Papa will serve as the actual Marriage Ref and will have the final say in determining the victor of each spat. Papa was personally chosen by Seinfeld for this role. For the past eight years, Papa has been on tour with Seinfeld. The couples that present their problems will be given a call by the Ref, just like in sports. Wife is right, husband is wrong. Wife wins the prize. Advising and influencing the Ref's decision will be a rotating panel of "experts" comprised of top celebrities, comedians and sports stars who will weigh in and offer their own wit, wisdom and unique opinions.
