Changed for the better

Carlin comes back to New York in this 1992 comedy special and I actually liked it. This time, anger comes into him like never before and it fuels his comedy as he rants about the Persian Gulf War/Penises, Universal moments we share, The planet and environment, flying on the airplanes and the best part, Golf Courses for the homeless. Terrific entertainment with a added incentive: comes to Madison Square Garden to perform and makes the crowd rolling. Excellent, for Carlin fans. Best line: "What about those passengers traveling with large children? Suppose you have a 2 year old with a pertuitary disorder, you know a 6ft infant with an oversized head?" A++

he kicks ass

George Carlin has been talking about the way Americans act, talk, what should be taken out, and why are we sensitive. In Jammin in New York, he goes all out in a way I had never seen him. I had seen his special on HBO in January of 2002, which I got to say made me laugh more than anybody on the planet. Some of the lines like: somebody got f*ck in the ass! BLTPT! BLTPT! made me laugh my ass off. I only wish Sam Kinison were alive to see it

From the specials i have seen George Carlin in, Jammin in New York is the best one

This is my favorite george carlin special thus far. This feels cohesive in a way none of his other specials gave felt. I wonder if his idea of converting golf courses into affordable housing for the homeless can be done for real. If not then i can't see why.

When George Carlin is asked which HBO concert is his favorite, his answer is always, "Jammin' In New York." The reasons are several: It was his first HBO show done live; it was the first he had done in his hometown, New York City; and it was the largest audience he had ever worked before: 6,500. But Carlin says it also represented a newfound sophistication in his writing. "It was the first time I had done truly extended pieces consisting of separate sections all flowing together. It was a big leap for me."

Nasty Miserable Guy

This guy spends an hour complaining about everything in his sarcastic tone. Just like Andy Rooney on 60 minutes, nothing is good enough for this nasty little dwarf. Complain, complain, complain.

Thirty plus years later, the stuff he complains about is dated and pathetic. It is hard to believe that this guy was ever popular, taking his whining from town to town and making HBO specials.

Just amazing to see what utter crud passed as entertainment back in 1992. Kudos to the nasty little guy for passing off his miserable life as comedy, and for making millions of dollars off of people who paid for it.

Radicalism?

A successful comedian has good determinations, but I think he exaggerates some topics.

Carlin dedicated the special to Sam Kinison, who died two weeks before airing. Carlin was inspired by Kinison's loud voice to raise his own vocal level.

George Carlin: [on airline announcements] Here's one they just made up: "near miss". When two planes almost collide, they call it a near miss. It's a near hit! A collision is a near miss! BOOM! Look, they nearly missed. Yes, but not quite!
