Many of who who appreciated the comedy of George Carlin who passed away this week may be interested to know that HBO will be playing all of his concerts in a marathon starting Wednesday night.
Here's the schedule: http://www.hbo.com/events/george-carlin ... main_image
To me, Carlin was in the triumverate of great comedians with Bill Cosby and Richard Pryor. While I didn't care for his later "angry" stand-up it being too bitter for my taste, he always remained topical and philosophical and especially in the early years, extra silly which I enjoy quite a lot. He was a brilliant man, regardless of whether I agreed with his politics or religion and now is a good chance to acquaint yourself with his work if you have somehow missed it over the years. And if he's a favorite of yours too, now's the chance to remember exactly why.
