Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Heavy Influence.
I used to watch George Carlin a lot when I was a kid. We regarded him as being quite risqué (lol) but today, I must admit, his brand of humor seems rather dated. What we have to remember with Carlin is that he was a forerunner, and this DVD really makes you realize the type of influence he had on the great comedians of our day--particularly Jerry Seinfeld. He was a giant of the observational method, and laid the ground upon which many a great career has traversed. Carlin's delivery is also magnificent. ... Read More
Rating:  - George's Best Stuff
A Readers Digest collection of mostly ancient bits of his youthful beginnings--much of the routines is dated, maybe funny then but our new youth may not relate. Still George, but he has certainly improved with age.
Rating: - This is comedy like Robin Williams
Some of this stuff is from the 70's when George Carlin was young and in 1990, he looked a little bit older like in Scary Movie 3 where he looks like Santa Claus as "the architect". George Carlin is my personal favorite comedian and it's as good as Robin Williams-Live on Broadway.Recently, I heard that nowadays he wants to be taken more seriously.I think he would be very good in something serious. That's just me.
Rating: - The emperor is naked!
This is my 2nd bunch of comments on this DVD, my first has not been posted, maybe it never will be. I hope not. I've thought the matter over. I've read a lot of reviews of Carlin since I discovered him the other day, and I've noticed that the people who worship him seem as a general rule to like violence in their "music" and their movies. (I've been reading other reviews by Carlin devotees.) I've also noticed that many if not most of the rave reviews (particularly one that praised his intelligence) ... Read More
Rating: - It's a Start, but it Could've Been So Much More
It is almost IMPOSSIBLE to successfully put together a "Best of Carlin" on CD or DVD. Why? Because it'd take up too much time. Carlin has done NUMEROUS bits that are now deemed classic, and personally I think almost everything the man does, is great. And yet, here is this DVD, "George's Best Stuff." Well, it is a start, but only covers SOME of the great things this very funny and unique man has said and done.
It's not a complete disappointment though. The bits and segments included are indeed funny. And, ... Read More
