The rhythm of George Carlin's delivery and buildup to jokes is absolutely amazing. I have never heard anyone with such a great rhythm, absolutely amazing.

This literally caused a landmark supreme court case on profanity. George Carlin must have been proud.
@DaltonPepple
Comedians can create great jokes, but it's all about the delivery. George Carlin was the best at Delivery.
@pd417
His timing, intelligence and philosophy are truly classic. His routines need to be taught in a master class, especially this one.
@ExhaustedElox
Once again, George Carlin proving something Patton Oswalt said on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson: "A good comedian can get laughs without swearing, but a great comedian can make swearing sound like fucking poetry."

This guy was way ahead of his time

This is pure genius!

Gosh, how I do miss this man. Thank goodness he's been recorded so many times.
@trom2004
Carlin did earn the informal title of "Word Smith". He had a way with words that was truly unique.

5:40 - 6:18 This is exactly why I think Carlin was a total master over the english language. Just the way he can stride into any subject, recite with almost total perfection endless lists of data, syllable after syllable. AND he did this while going off script! He could play off the audience and keep the pace up. Incredible...
@YTonYahoo
It feels like he's singing. Everything he's saying flows so well into the brain. It's poetry.
@doughboyxl274
By far one of the greatest comedic minds to ever do it. Absolutely brilliant
@samsignorelli
You really have to admire how George structured this routine....5 and a half minute lead-in to the 7 words....and the payoff when he said them the first time was wonderful. The setup and payoff was masterful.

In 1972, George Carlin released an album of stand-up comedy entitled Class Clown. One track on the album was "Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television," a monologue in which he identified these words, expressing amazement that these particular words could not be used, regardless of context. He was arrested for disturbing the peace when he performed the routine at a show at Summerfest in Milwaukee.

George was such a clever wordsmith--to me one of the best comedians ever in my lifetime. This came out on his 1972 album Class Clown. I found it in my step-uncle's records when I was 10 (1976) and thought the album was great. I did acquire a bad potty-mouth by the next year, and George may have been part of what inspired me. Lol. He started in 1959 doing comedy routines. Born in Manhattan. I was so sad when he died in 2008 at 71 yrs-old. There's no one like him.
@torontoBluejays87
One thing that gets lost in the absolute genius that is George Carlin's comedic material is the phenomenal control he had on physical comedy. He was one of the best in both worlds, which for me, puts him as the best all time.
@Tony-g9j8r
Carlin was way ahead of his time. Loved listening to him in the early 70s
@mikebarrios4958
I was right out of high school in 1973 and traveled from Colorado to Florida on a motorcycle but never heard anything like this. But when my best friend and I bought this album by accident in 75 we made lot's of friends sharing it with others!!!!!
