Broadcast November 25, 1981 -- Veteran dancer Gregory Hines (1946-2003) dances a duet with "beginner" Steve Martin (born 1945), who says he has just completed his "first MGM musical," "Pennies from Heaven." This was a bright spot in an era of few TV variety shows. Greg Hines was already beloved in the worldwide dance communities, and Martin was carving a niche for himself in traditional Terpsichore, which was insignificant to most entertainers in 1981. This was, after all, four years before the MGM film "That's Dancin'" validated the work of many old song and dance artists. The song "Fit As A Fiddle" was written in 1932 by Arthur Freed (lyrics) and Al Goodhart & Al Hoffman (music). This little bit of show biz gave Martin another well-deserved feather in his cap, one that set him apart from any other stand up or sketch comedian. Gregory Hines & Steve Martin T |

George Carlin: 40 Years of Comedy was comedian George Carlin's tenth HBO special. It aired live from the Wheeler Theater in Aspen, Colorado as part of the US Comedy Arts Festival. Unlike Carlin's other stand-up specials, this special contains only 27 minutes of stand-up performance. The rest of the special is a retrospective celebrating Carlin's 40th anniversary in entertainment featuring clips of his television appearances and an interview with host Jon Stewart. Some of Carlin's material was repeated in his next special You Are All Diseased.
George Denis Patrick Carlin (May 12, 1937 - June 22, 2008) was an American stand-up comedian, actor and author who won four Grammy Awards for his comedy albums.
Carlin was noted for his political insights, black humor, language observations, psychology, religion and various taboo subjects. Carlin and his "Seven Dirty Words" comedy routine were central to the 1978 U.S. Supreme Court case F.C.C. v. Pacifica Foundation, in which a narrow 5-4 decision by the justices affirmed the government's power to regulate indecent material on the public airwaves.
In the 1990s and 2000s, Carlin's stand-up routines focused on the flaws in modern-day America. He often took on contemporary political issues in the United States and satirized the excesses of American culture.
He was placed second on the Comedy Central cable television network list of the 100 greatest stand-up comedians, ahead of Lenny Bruce and behind Richard Pryor. He was a frequent performer and guest host on The Tonight Show during the three-decade Johnny Carson era, and was also the first person to host Saturday Night Live. George Carlin: 40 Years of Com |
