Stephen Colbert suggests in the new HBO documentary GEORGE CARLIN’S AMERICAN DREAM that the legendary comedian was like the Beatles to his generation of comics. Colbert is right as not only was Carlin’s effect on standup as revolutionary as the Beatles were to rock & roll, but like the Liverpool lads, Carlin was able to reinvent himself for the changing times. The two-part, four-hour doc showcases all of the icon’s incredible career across 50 years and shows sides of him that most have never seen before including the earliest routines of the legendary comedian, as well as intimate details of his personal life. It’s one helluva story.
It may surprise most as well to realize that the upstart comic, famous for his routine ‘The Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television,” started as a suit & tie jokester imitating other standups on THE ED SULLIVAN SHOW in the mid-60s.

George Denis Patrick Carlin (born May 12, 1937) was an American comedian, actor, author and social critic.
Early Life
George Denis Patrick Carlin was born in the Manhattan borough of New York City on May 12, 1937, the son of secretary Mary (née Bearey; 1896–1984) and The Sun advertising manager Patrick John Carlin (1888–1945), who won the 1935 Mahogany Gavel Award from over 800 other public speakers at the Dale Carnegie Public Speaking Institute. Carlin had an older brother, Patrick Carlin Jr. (1931–2022), who later had a major influence on his comedy. His mother was born in New York City to Irish immigrants and his father was himself an Irish immigrant from Cloghan, a village in County Donegal in Ulster, leading Carlin to later describe himself as "fully Irish". He wrote in his posthumously-published autobiography Last Words that, when his first wife Brenda was alive, "I used to have a fantasy of Ireland, the south-eastern parts so that it would be a little warmer, and the two of us there, close enough to Dublin t
