George Carlin is so needed in this day and age.
Dave Chappell is a good replacement.
Amen to that!
Careful what you wish for. Someone might try and bring him back through AI
@@claytonwillis8474 They already have. It's on Twitch.
@@claytonwillis8474Actually someone did recently. I tried listening to it and...no.
I was a police officer in a small northwest New Jersey town. Before George Carlin would do his HBO Special he would try his material out at a local high school. His agent would call up our police station and request two officers to stand by behind the curtains in case anything happened. Before the show he walked over and shook our hands. His agent/driver said that "Once the show was over George is heading right to the car and we are following you to the highway to get back to the interstate." My partner and I got a picture with him. After the show was over, we escorted George and his driver back to the interstate, pulled over, and waved them past us. George was halfway leaning out of the passenger car window screaming, "Thanks fuckers!" And if you don't believe me, I'll send you the picture.
I miss Johnny too. One embodiment of a more civilized time in America.
George was so incredibly dryly funny. And you can see how much Johnny loved him.
Such a great selection!
Where are you when we need you George?
The endless material he would have with the country the way it is now.
A legend deeply missed.
RIP
Exactly... There is no crazier time than this. He would have plenty of materials. In the darkest nights, the moon is dearly missed.
6 feet under...I'm sure there's a Gen Z comedian out there with Carlan chops! 🤣
So true
You need MORE entertainment?? 🤭🤣
It's not so much what George sayes , it's the way he sayes it .
That voice , tonation , timing ....
......just superb !
May 13th, 1992... Carlin had celebrated his 55th birthday the day before he taped this appearance, and Carson had one more week of hosting the Tonight Show before retiring indefinitely...
Wow!! 😢
Crazy to think this era wrapped up 7 months before I was even born
I guess he didn't appear on Jay leno's era
@@chuckdieselkicksdisks2380Carson was definitely not happy with how NBC replaced him. Letterman was who Carson really wanted to follow in his footsteps. NBC brass thought better and put Leno in and Carson never forgave NBC and never appeared on the network again, even for a big network anniversary special they begged him to attend. The only time Carson appeared on TV, after retiring was on Dave’s CBS show calling in or pre- taped bits culminating in a shocking walk on where the applause was so intense, Carson was never able to get out one word. He sat at Dave’s desk and tried to calm the crowd down and just as they were starting to, Carson had second thoughts, stood up and exited stage right. The clip is on You Tube and you need to see it.
Hard to comprehend that Carson has been dead for 15 yrs.
miss both these guys so much! It was a different era folks.
Rest In Peace, Johnny and George. ❤️🙏 Sure miss you both.
Carlin was a philosopher who told jokes. 🙏🏻
He hated God and Christ and is suffering in Hell now.
@@kirkmcgee1Idiot. First of all which god? The one you believe in or one of the thousands hindus believe in? Which ones? He was before his time. He knew what idiotic ideology religion is. Just stop and think about it. You actually believe some guy built a boat with thousand of animals inside it. And that earth is 6000 years old…
Fool, he prolly brought more to god then most preachers, quiet down and pray more.@@kirkmcgee1
@@kirkmcgee1that’s so rad that you’ve already died and know with 100% certainty that an afterlife actually exists. Cool. Very neat!
@@kirkmcgee1 Rejecting the debunked nonsense of commercial religion is very different from hating god.
I wish that George Carlin was still around today. His point of view is sorely missed in this country.
100% agree! I think that to myself often.
In 1999 George Carlin in an interview with Tom Snyder on the Late Show said he lived for disasters. Two years later 9-11 must have made him very happy. Carlin was a sick jerk.
To God??!! 😁
@@kentduryea7109 So an indirect comment 2 years before a disaster and you connect Carlin to that? it's a stretch at best.
@@kentduryea7109he infamously scraped an entire 1hr special because of 9/11.
105 times, that's amazing. George was the best.
He hated God and Christ and is suffering in Hell now.
@@kirkmcgee1While true, that doesn't mean he wasn't funny.
I can't argue with that.@@larrygrebler5054
@@kirkmcgee1 No, he was against organized religion. There's a big difference.
@@artthomas8017No he was against religion. Rightfully so.
I so miss George Carlin. He' someone whose insight we could use right now.
He hated God and Christ and is suffering in Hell now.
He’
@@kirkmcgee1That's funny because there's absolutely 0 evidence that Christianity was ever moral. It's a history book you never read...
@@Rob-metoo527 A true Christian will be the first to admit they are sinners in need of a savior. Christians aren't perfect but they are forgiven through trusting in Christ. You can't be "moral" enough to enter Heaven. Eternal life is a free gift and the giver is Christ. The catch is you have to accept and receive the gift. Most people are too proud to admit they need saving.
@@kirkmcgee1 You're *really* dumb. 🤦♂
George was always subdued when he was on prime time. He was much more in tune when he was live ✌🏼❤️
He had to be more subdued on network. They couldn't air the stuff he did on stage. He could only be himself on cable, on his HBO specials.
Yeah, George had to hold back because he wasn't on cable tv. Also being on the Carson show has a way of subdueing people threw nerves@@mattbosley3531
The fact he could do both successfully is just further testament to his genius.
Saw Carlin on stage around 2003 - just about fell out of my seat I was laughing so hard. Great performer, comedian and philosopher.
Amazing Talented Wise Man, ahead of his time ♥️🕯♥️
He was always of his time. That's what made him so poignant and funny, and why he remained so across five decades.
Greatest comedian of all time! Better than all the rest!
what about bobcat:?
nah i disagree. i'd say he's one of the best though.
I remember watching this at 14 or 15 years old when it was on, at around midnight (in the spring).
Watching this again at age 46... Around midnight in the pre-spring.
George was truly one of a kind.
*Everyone* is one of a kind.
Carlin was a GENIUS!
he was an atheist which shows a lot of bitterness and lack of common sense
Perfect for a comedian...
Most ultra successful people are.
@@horaceball5418 alrighty then. God judges not you. Besides, if you ever listened to some of his epic stand ups, you would know he had his finger on society, the government and people to a T. Get past your judgment of others (like god tells you to) and give it a listen.
I love 95% of George Carlin and was enjoying him when your parents were in Kindergarten! Don't be so easily hurt.@@stateofdisorder1
The man, the myth, the legend! Mr. George Carlin❤
I saw Carlin in concert at my university in 1990. He did not disappoint. I'm so glad I had the opportunity to see him perform live, not Memorex.
Saw Carlin live many moons ago in Portland, Oregon. His observational humor was unparalleled. He is greatly missed.
Wow I really miss George Carlin! I forgot about Wonderful Wino. LOVED Hippy-Dippy Weatherman, his appearances on the Flip Wilson show.
I was blessed to have seen George Carlin twice in person with my late Dad,also named George. Beautiful memories. Love and miss you Dad and George Carlin. From Canada 🇨🇦 🙏✝️❤️
Carlin was a genius. Johnny Carson was the greatest Late Night host of all time. This interview didn't disappoint.
George Carlin's wisdom comes up a lot in my life. I'm glad it is still very relevant.
I absolutely loved George Carlin! He is not always on my mind but he was always sooo funny and creative! God Bless his Soul!❤
I was born 7 years later in 99’ two men I wish I watched live. Carlin and Carson will always be legends
“That's why they call it the American Dream, because you have to be asleep to believe it.” ~ George Carlin
My favorite line from him. So perfect!
He turned into an anti-capitalist businessman hater.
It was a dark day when Carlin passed. I remember hearing the news on the radio while in a stark dorm room at the Kansas Highway Patrol Academy (Room G26) for continuing education. Fifteen and a half years and it's like yesterday.
Just Gold!
Wow! George Carlin became a major standup legend because of Johnny Carson. Can you imagine anyone doing a bunch of standup gigs all across the country and then appearing on The Tonight Show 105 times today? Absolutely not!
He went on for thirty years; three times or more a year. He explains that he was on starting in 1960! (That's 32 years for this video!)
@@kylepodziewski3288 Yeah, but he has mostly appeared with Johnny. That's big!
Also The Ed Sullivan Show presented George to millions!
@@roberthunerberg1509 Yes, but that was a primetime show.
Carlin would have been big with or without the Tonight Show and Johnny Carson. His genius and philosophical insight was to great to go unnoticed.
This world. the USA needs George Carlin now more than ever.
I loved the glass joke & and the dog named, not Spot, but Stained...lOl!!! 🤣
Long live mr George Carlin !
Still miss Johnny and Uncle George.
One of my favorite skits of George Carlin's was when he did a weather report on Ed Sullivan show back in the late sixties. Also did weather reports in some of his live standup.
"Today's weather forecast includes a severe pressure center. Now a lot of viewers have written into the station asking what a severe pressure center is." George then points to a location on the weather map of the states. "This is a severe pressure center". 🤣
The hippy dippy weatherman
Warren Zevon sure did an incredible George Carlin impression
Salute CC, Carson and Carlin top of the mountain❤
George Carlin is my favorite Thomas and Friends narrator! 🚂
R.I.P. George Carlin (1937 - 2008) 😭
He's my favorite Thomas and Friends narrator too, along with being one of my favorite comedians!
His clip about why we need viruses is gold.
Brilliant as always.
Both of them... incredible talent and so missed!
Bulldog on angel dust 😂 omg I love it
🤣🤣🤣
So missed!!
"Hell's breakfast nook"! LOL
Laughter, a good way to start my day.
Three people who I wish were still around: Carlin, Hunter Thompson and Christopher Hitchens.
You can tell that Johnny really loved George's acerbic sense of humor
I would love to have seen Carlin 's take on Trump.
Loved his mind ❤
Two legends.
I love how he recovers weak jokes by calling them observations and getting a bigger laugh for it lol
The last joke you need a dirty mind for. The dog named Stain .... COME STAIN! (Wonders why I explained the joke)
God Bless George! Miss both him and Johnny. They’re all in a club. Andy you ain’t in it! No truer words were ever spoken.
🕯George Denis Patrick Carlin
May 12, 1937 - June 22, 2008
Johnny's last show was 9 days after this one.
I want to know how the pitch meeting went when they were trying to find the host for the PBS kids show Shiny Time Station.
After all of the comedy shows he did, that were certainly not kid friendly, ya.... ya... let's get *that* guy to narrate and play Mr. Conductor.
😛
At least he knew the seven words he couldn't say on TV.
Yet for all that, he was great in that role. His Thomas narration was terrific.
What a perfect program Sir Johnny Sir & Associates have put together for us, it’s amazing it’s priceless, always.
Angel man George Carlin….what an outstanding, & hysterically responsible Comedian, entertainer, performer, business person, & mathematician, always man! Lol.😂
This guy keeps track of how many rain drops fall on his heavenly brow, as a rule.
Carlin is a great role model for us out here, for such things, & including for valueing & appreciating thing correctly & accurately, always, a guy who values every single rain drop as priceless.
Cudos, man. ✌️😇❤️🌈📀🔒🔐
My Dad and I saw his stage show back in 1999. Much 'bluer' than his monologue here---LOL----he was hilarious. Great Memory. :)
2 of the greatest entertainers ever!!
One of the few people with an actual genius brain.
Pretty funny and he looks great in the dark blue jacket and black top.
Hi everyone, Have an interesting dusk!
He, funny man!
Iove your show more and more.
I loved Johnny Carson. My entertainment hero.
I saw Carlin live in New Orleans in 1994 .
He was great live .
I saw all of Carlin's HBO specials ,but he was fantastic live..
A modern prophet. RIP George
Genius. Tonight’s forecast? Dark!
One of his best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You shouldnt miss george. He taught us to question EVERYTHING and to enjoy the front the circus called america.
Carson, re: Carlin: "... and kept ahead of the game ..." Carlin definitely pegged the world we now are dealing with many years beforehand. Brilliant comedian.
George talks about his partnership with Jack Burns, they did put out an album, which I am fortunate to own, it's not very good, but you can hear the ideas that George worked up into good bits later on
I was 21 years old waiting tables at The Keg restaurant in Bellevue, Washington when this aired. Time flys, it's so unfair how short it is but thank God we get it.
Carlin was right.
About everything.
Late night died with Johnny!
Hilarious as usual. It’s standup!!!
The Goat
Miss him all the time.
I thought "105th appearance" was supposed to be some kinda joke .
As in "I've appeared too many times on this show ..."
But ACTUAL 105 appearances , that's crazy !
I don't have 105 WORDS in my vocabulary ffs ! 😅
Hailstones line 😅
I was fortunate to see Johnny Carson (show taping in the mid-80s) and George Carlin (comedy show in in the early 2000s). I think of those few hours from 20 to 40 years ago from time to time - legends.
The best part about 9:54 is that over 30 years later, you can actually buy daytime fireworks. No idea how well they work, but they're out there. I guess George was just ahead of his time on that one, but that's hardly unusual for him!
❤❤❤❤
Was introduced to George’s wonderful brand of humor with his album “Occupation Foole” around 1972 and he kept me in stitches for the next 35 years or so. “Hell’s Breakfast Nook” just killed me.
How about remembering a time when an Adult comedian could host a children’s show and everyone loved it. ‘‘Twas definitely a better time.
He was created, wayyyy before him time.
Funny how his political humor is SPOT ON. 🤔
You was one of a kind.
GOD bless these two funny men. May they rest in peace with you, Lord.
Thank the Lord for both of these men, God bless rest in peace
Love you Fellas 💗🧸
I won tickets on the radio to see George Carlin. I had nobody to go with and gave the tickets to my sister and my cousin. They said it was a great show.
What year?
@@ajk mid 1990's
❤
George Carlin was such an amazing gift to our collective lives
Some good comics work clean.
Some good comics work dirty.
The great ones can do both. Carlin is one of the greats.
Obviously this wasn't George's A material (he had to tone things down for network TV), but I consider this the period of peak Carlin, early to mid-90s. He was coming into his own in terms of bringing the truth bombs, and he was still hilarious. Later Carlin was just as truthful but stopped being funny. So this was my favorite period of his routines.
That new AI Carlin was HORRIBLE! I could only watch a few minutes of it. He would have hated it.
wull
Man this era was amazing.
California is horrid now and the energy has got out. Wishing the greats were still around to help guide the youth
