Excellent, a Must See
... View MoreAlthough I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

... View MoreThere is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
... View MoreI love this show and was very sorry to see it canceled. It was like a low-brow Seinfeld. Instead of clean-cut, comedian like Jerry, George Carlin's character is a rather sloppy, unbathen cab driver. He's a single guy with his circle of wacky friends. Action usually takes place in his apartment or in a local bar that his friend's gather at (which is sort of like Monk's as a hang-out spot in Seinfeld). I enjoy Carlin's Stand-up comedy, but he's always pretty funny when he takes on an acting job (he out-shines Bette Midler and Shelley Long in Outrageous Fortune).It would have been nice if the show lasted longer. I have one episode that I taped off the TV that I drag out to show friends. It always yields laughs. I just wish I could fine a place to buy or watch the other episodes.The comedy isn't for everyone. I wouldn't recommend it for people who like shows such as Friends or Mad About You.Edit: I found a place on AOL to watch it, but you can see where Fox dubbed in other words (apparently they found the show too offensive). You also need to watch commercials, but at least it's available somewhere. I'd enter the link, but I don't think it's allowed here.
... View Moreand it was damn funny. I only wish that it would come back in reruns just like they used to when I woke up on Sunday Mornings at 8 pm. I love George Carlin, and i wish his show would be on DVD or on VHS for me to see.Another funny show from FOX that didn't deserve to be in the crapper.
... View MoreI've seen the list of shows that have already been released on DVD and I'm just wondering what's taking so long with "The George Carlin Show"? The show was short lived and to me that alone makes it a big seller, especially for the 1000's of george carlin fans out here! ONE season! Let's go!
... View MoreFortunately I taped the first episode of the series and still have it in my collection. This show was not given a very good chance to make it in today's "get ratings NOW" attitude among television executives. Carlin is one of the funniest and most intelligent comedians of all time and I would like to see him get another shot with this show. Perhaps on cable where it isn't ratings or nothing right out of the gate. I also liked Paige French who played the waitress at the bar where George's character hung out. Strangely enough, I haven't seen her in anything else since the show went off the air.
