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

Overview

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.

George Carlin

A cunning jewel thief has been giving Scotland Yard Inspector Grey a hard time for a long time. Nobody suspects that the man keeping the police on their toes is the likeable Roger Edgeston, the son of the Duke of the same name. When the shrewd crook meets the enchanting Jennifer Lindsey on a cozy summer night, fate takes its course, as the charming young lady also engages in criminal activities in her spare time and acts as a blackmailer. In the course of the evening, the duke's son is forced to realize that love is not only blind, but also careless when it comes to his illegal activities.
