Product Description
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: 6500.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. The show taped at the Paramount Theater in Madison Square Garden and winner of the 1992 CableACE Award is a perfect blend of biting social commentary and more gently-observed observational pieces.Rockets and Penises in the Persian GulfLittle Things We ShareAirline AnnouncementsGolf Courses for the HomelessThe Planet is Fine (The People are Screwed)System Requirements:Running Time 83 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY UPC: 030306763699 Manufacturer No: DVD7636

 George Carlin Jammin In New York August 9, 2008
Wasn't as good as I was expecting. I didn't find his material to be that humorous.
 disappointed August 4, 2008
I thought I would have sume laughs with this one as I read other people's reviews but no. I found George at this stage of his life coming off as a bitter old man about a lot of things. Still I love him!
 A MASTER AT WORK! GREAT SET! July 1, 2008

I've been watching some of my Carlin DVD's again after his untimely death. It's sad to say goodbye to one of my favorite and one of the greatest comedians of all time. This set is one of his best and well worth checking out.

You will be missed.

This is one of my favorite Carlin DVD! I think if you like George Carlin and think he's funny, you should buy this DVD and you'll realize he's very very funny and a pure genious! I also suggest you pick up "Life is worth losing" Carlin's next DVD soon to be released. I don't get offended about anything Carlin says but in that one i got offended with like 2 things he said. Then he explained more and i just realized how stupid i was. Carlin is always making you step back as a human being to look at yourself and people as a whole. Look at how ignorant we sometimes act but at the same time talking about all the little things that we all do but never talk about. BUY THIS DVD i have 11 george carlin HBO specials and i never will regret paying a penny for them.

This video is a perfect example as to why George Carling is known as such a great comedian. His opinions reflect your opinions you're yo scared to share. His acts are funny, as well as very intelligent. Every word he says we can relate to. When he performs, you know he is passionate in it. I'd reccomend this to evryone.
