    If Carlin was alive today he'd have endless material and packed audiences.

    "Selfish, ignorant citizens elect selfish, ignorant politicians." He nailed it
  • The only entertainer who could tell his audience off and criticize them for an hour and receive applause and a standing ovation.

    Still spot on after 27 years. The man was a genius.
  • Carlin wasn't a comedian; he was a philosopher with a sense of humour.
  • Carlin literally joked about things that would happen in the future and he was right. That's extreme intelligence that can't be considered luck. The most intelligent comedian that ever stepped on a stage
  • I still have a couple of George Carlin's LP's in my collection from the early 1970's; I saw his first appearance on the Ed Sullivan show. Over the end of the 20th and beginning of the 21st centuries, we have seen some very gifted humorists. But I've yet to see anybody as fast, intelligent, creative, thought-provoking and consistently educational as this gentleman. Absolutely one of a kind!

    Jesus... imagine if he saw America today. The comedy would be gold.

    Carlin’s anti-motivated attitude toward motivation books is motivating.
  • @Zainab-jb7lr
    He never gets boring.. watched his stuff multiple times
  • He is one of the greatest comedian. But I haven’t seen him laugh while doing the comedy. This guy talks his heart
  • @timhicks2154
    My goodness, he would have no shortage of material if he was around in 2020.

    Carlin made a living from telling a theatre full of people how stupid they are, while the audience laughed and cheered!

    If Carlin was alive today he'd have endless material and packed audiences.. Imagine George Carlin in 2022. He’d have an absolute field day..
  • He was a genius. Whatever profession had he chosen he would have been the master of that field. The greatest of all time.
  • "How can you possibly be nostalgic about something that happened an hour ago" This guy predicted social media. You are missed George.
