His comedy has a way of letting people interpret it how they want to, and it's these people he's making fun of; often without them realising. Generally he's drawing attention to something awful about society and the people who let it happen. Very clever satirist.
"piss is now ok on television, if your pissed off. But not if your pissed on. Its alright for me to say to you, why are you pissed off at me? But you cant say because you pissed on me."
I would assume that maybe his closest idea of God was energy. The continuous process of creation and desegregation. In one of his performances he refers to God as a giant orb of energy that does not judge, just sits there and pulses. He also mentions worshiping the sun, but I think he said it to make a statement, more that stating a fact.
@ykaiilah Very good. He denounced the Christian "God" but was a bit more tolerant to spiritual aspects of the subject. "Atheist" really doesn't describe George Carlin as many people think it does.
Middle of this looks like a scene from the "Cain Mutiny" with Humphrey Bogart. The "it was the strawberries scene". Vegas must have really hurt poor George, rest his soul... :(
Besides, it's hard to get people whose mother tongue isn't English to listen to English material. Sadly, as I'd have loved to share the awesome experience of watching Carlin perform. I can't wait for his reincarnation. It'll be awesome.
No dude George is belongs to world now:)i am from Turkey in minor asia,i am big fan of him i read his books,i watch his every piece of work avaliable and distribute among my friends everyone loved him,and i think i will inherit his works to my children.
if i become president i put his statue in the frikking capitol.
I'm from Mexico and he has been one of my idols for quite a while now. There are no words to explain how much this man has meant to me, perhaps, to put it bluntly, I could say that he has been my values changing drug as he showed me to question and think. I admire him so much, there are some parts of this long interview in which I'm literally moved into tears. I feel grateful to acknowledge who my hero exactly was and I only hope that I'll never be so disrespectful as to worship him.
Great interview indeed! Especially interesting to hear the microminimal odds for Georgie even being born (R.I.P) and the story of how he started his breakthrough. Thanks for uploading.
I, after devouring this man's genius for seven years, got to see this man in February of last year, about 4 months before he died. God damn, what a fuckin' show, I'll never forget it. Goodbye George, you may be "Fuckin' dead!", but we're never gonna forget ya.
"Remember, it takes two fingers to make the peace sign, just like it takes two people to fuck; when you give someone the finger, you're jerking off. Good night."
George Carlin was truly free! To be able to express your thoughts in such a tragi-comical way, just blows you away! Pure GENIUS right down to his marrow! I'll miss him greatly! I still can't believe I won't be able to soak up any new material from him.
So many restrictions, but censorship defeats itself every time.
I've always wondered though..if it's called the Federal Communications Commission, shouldn't it be trying to make things known instead of dumbing it down and censoring it?
George Carlin, Bill Hicks = kings of comedy, genuine and revolutionary promoters of free speech, free thinking, and general consciousness, and everything that is good! Your voice is heard after your death, you continue to influence anyone who is open to change and to anyone who is willing to seek the truth, now that will ensure you immortality!!!! RIP geniuses!!!
Your religion shouldn't even have to be brought up in regards to sense of humor though. I mean, that is good for you but I think everyone should be able to laugh at jokes about everything. it's all jokes ;)
if the first comandment was thou shall not kill, then what the fuck was up with the great crusade, killing people... for god? What the fuck?? He specifically asked you NOT to kill anyone!
do a lot of people do these archive interviews? because ive never seen one like this before and if there is others i would like to watch them because you can learn so much from other peoples lives.
From Red Foxx to Lennie Bruce to George Carlin! Profanity as an art form! Like he said, "Piss" and "Tits" are officially taken off the list because they CAN be said on Prime Time. Pissed has to be equated with either "angry" or "drunk" but not "urinated" unless it's on cable TV, but Tits was said on popular network shows like "LA Law" a couple of decades ago by a lady who had breast implants! The evolution of language courtesy of a brilliant 9th grade dropout! Bravo George!
Please read my comment again before you decide to insult me. I was praising the Genius that is Carlin The Media Visionary! along with other comedic geniuses that preceded him like Red & Lennie! My pointing out that he was a 9th Grade Dropout wasn't a slam against HIM but THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM!!!! My comment on Piss & Tits was my humble attempt to add a footnote to his update on how they currently don't qualify as words you can't say on TV! In the future, READ before you FLAME!!!
I own all of his albums and they are still just as funny today as they were in the 70's and 80's
