Ok, this is now officially getting to me. Celebrity deaths happen all the time ... but rarely has there been such a spate of celeb passings of those I really admire and who's talents I've enjoyed for a lifetime.


George Carlin - - omfrelling G. Sigh. Rare comic genius.

For the time being, George's final HBO special, It's Bad For Ya, can be seen here on YouTube. His comments on getting old and on things people say after someone dies are now especially poignant (and still trenchantly funny). This was first broadcast only months ago. As swan songs go, this is good stuff, and precious now that there will be no more.

Edited to add: I will wait a lot more than six weeks before I scratch you out of my book, George!

Another great one lost to us. I'm thankful that I have been able to catch his show a few times. He was great live and I will cherish my cd collection too!

It's going to be a bad year for losing great people.

I don't know about you, but watching that made me feel a whole lot better about him dying.

This Saturday, Saturday Night Live will be playing the very first episode of SNL featuring George Carlin as the Guest Host (with Billy Preston and Janice Ian musical guests).

This weekend, HBO will be playing most or all (I've heard conflicting stories) of the 14 George Carlin HBO specials.

Various HBO Channels have been playing those virtually around the clock. I was perturbed to find one I was watching the other night was, omg, not at all funny. But, whew, another one was one a different HBO channel and, to my relief, it was hysterical.

And it was quite different than how we've come to view guest hosts since. Some many years ago I went to the Museum of Radio & Television and pulled up the first SNL episode (along with a few other choice shows), and watched it for the first time. I'd love to see it again, so it's a part of our Saturday night plan.
