Dir. Rocco Urbisci · Starring George Carlin

“Some look at life on the bright side. He prefers the grave side.”

ComedyTV MovieDocumentary

Carlin returns to the stage in his 13th live comedy stand-up special, performed at the Beacon Theatre in New York City for HBO®. His spot-on observations on the deterioration of human behavior include Americans’ obsession with their two favorite addictions - shopping and eating; his creative idea for The All-Suicide Channel, a new reality TV network; and the glorious rebirth of the planet to its original pristine condition - once the fires and floods destroy life as we know it.

VIBE

A no-holds-barred, darkly funny dissection of the human condition. Expect sharp, cynical observations on society, death, and everything in between, delivered with Carlin's signature biting wit. It's a provocative, thought-provoking, and often uncomfortable ride.
