If laughter is the best medicine, then this DVD fills the prescription, as it captures the genius of comedian George Carlin in performance. Culled from six HBO specials over 11 years in the 1970s and '80s, these clips chosen by Carlin himself spotlight his tremendous talent for astute, foul-mouthed, and hilarious observation of everyday life. Routines on this disc include "Hitler," "It's Not a Sport," "Earrings," "Hello-Goodbye," "We Like War," and two versions each of "Baseball and Football" and "A Placefor My Stuff."
