He Says It Like It Is!.......2007-08-05

I've been a fan of George Carlin since the mid-70's. I love this dvd and of course George being George. He says it like it is.....and he will forget more than most will ever come to know. There isn't a day in my life that when some little thought or scenario takes place, I think of him and his awesome sense of humor towards life itself.

A Little Strong On The Cuss........2007-02-09

In the tradition of Lenny Bruce & Richard Pryor, George Carlin spews out a spam of swearing interspersed with his usual outstanding social diatribe (rather, included w/in his diatribe). In my middle years now (I'm 47), my tendency is to rent/buy/watch Pixar & Disney films, Bill Cosby & Jon Stewart ("Daily Show"). I've a few DVDs (and "leftover" VHS)in my library of Mr. Carlin's genius (and he IS a genius). This selection of his, ".. Diseased" will be "it" for a while, though. Basically, George is the last of his breed, the last of the angry young men of his generation of comic teachers. He's the best that's left. With the good cop/bad cop scenario in mind, George was/is the bad cop, and Cosby was/is the good cop. Meanwhile, there's Carlos Mencia, e.g., the newest "Diatribe Man". There are others, but I really like Carlos -- if I want cussing from a younger example of comic genius.

Carlin Rules!.......2007-01-23

In my opinion this is some of the best of George Carlin. The meaner he gets the more I like him, and in this show he's on the attack. He makes some jokes about political humor, but Carlin is no politician and he has no agenda, its just pure standup and a look at things through the eyes of George.

George Carlin You're All Diseased HBO Special Review.......2007-01-03

As a huge George Carlin fan, this is one of my favorites! If you live under a rock and don't know George Carlin, be prepared for some naughty words! This special was taped in NYC in 1999 and Mr. Carlin is at his "pre-detox" peak! He totally rips on airport security, businessmen, customer "service" (sorry, Amazon!) and few sacred cows of society. While I'm not big on stand up comedy DVD's, this is good one to toss in at the end of a bad day. Very funny!

Free Speech wins again!!.......2006-07-07

Simply the same ol George I have always known... edgy, spot on topic & controversial. LOVED the observatons on religion especially NOW! Anyone who does not laugh at this should get your funny bone re-adjusted. (or take the stick out of your rear)
