* The guy sitting next to George: Earlier in the show, Dave had instructed a live camera into the apartment building next to the Ed. After no responses to two apartments, the third yielded a tenant named Steve. After chatting remotely with Dave, Steve was invited into the Ed for some cake and coffee. He then remained at home base during George’s two segments and then in the following segment when Dave read the Top Ten list.

  • In 1988 I was doing a public access show in Los Angeles...The Late Mr Pete Show. One night after a show, George Carlin called me at home and told me he didn't know what the F I was doing, but not to stop...George invited me to his home for Christmas dinner, and to Vegas to see him doing his act. 3 yrs later I had my own show on KTLA 5 in L.A. and won an emmy for best host. He saw something in me, and showed me nothing but kindness... Truly a nice, decent man...

    I love how he kept getting better with age right up to the end. He never stopped getting better and never gave up or gave in.
  • 😂I loved his unapologinic style of expressing the truth. I truly loved this man. There will never be another quite like him. Thank you so much Mr Carlin. You are so missed
  • The greatest comic to ever live, and one of the smartest and wittiest man to ever grace the planet
  • I'd just say George was simply telling the truth of the world and people. He did it in comic way, but it was and it still is, all truth. Only a lot of people don't have the guts to say it out loud and with class as he did. For that he will always be remembered and loved. Thank you George for speaking for all of us.
  • He’s the GOAT. Undeniable. Irrefutable. The greatest of all time. I’m never one to sit here and miss dead people I didn’t personally know. But Man I truly miss his presence in the world.
  • @amiedeecomedy
    I love how much people love him. He is sorely missed by so many. So happy I knew of him.
  • @russ7868
    Thank you for putting this together!!! I love Carlin!
  • I simply love his mind. Truly unique and refreshing. I have been re-watching his specials for 15 years every year and never get tired of them.
  • HB George! You'd be 85 today. Thank you for sharing your comedic genius.
  • @DBEdwards
    The greatest comedy sports sketch in the history of the world. George Carlin NAILED IT!
  • @MorsOktober
    George is everyone's grandpa. He is the grandpa we wish we all had growing up. Rest In Peace LEGEND 🙏🙏🙏🙏
  • The man had to have one of the most incredible memories of any comic. I saw him do an hour plus without taking a break at three different concerts.
  • @terristorms7496
    I loved his ways of looking at the absurdity of life ,his wit and wisdom.
  • @ajn465
    Since the 1970s, there's never been any doubt that George was the grand Master of standup
  • @kevinmurphy3464
    God, he was great! From electrical engineer major to writer, comedian and 2 of the best television shows ever. We were lucky to have had him.
  • @erichaynes7502
    A George Carlin only comes around once every 150 years. So smart and sharp and very loyal to his principles.
  • An absolute wordsmith! Truly the master! Love this guy saw him live twice he was the best
