On the Mount Rushmore of comedy specials. As enlightening as it is funny. Which is a lot.
Somewhat aged, but remembered and influential for a reason. That is, good but not necessarily constant laughs out loud for today's viewers.
If u want to laugh and think in same time watch this
1996 was a much simpler time. I graduated high school and had my whole life ahead of me. Carlin always grounded me. I miss him.
Funny, but at this point his cynicism was getting unbearable
Good one.
He's a legend in his prime.
8/10
More classic Carlin.
Long live George Carlin!
