Post Description
it"s Bad for Ya is the 14th and final HBO stand-up comedy special by stand-up comedian George Carlin. It was televised live on March 1, 2008 on HBO, less than four months before he died of heart failure.
It is the follow-up to the 2005 HBO special Life is Worth Losing. Carlin worked on this material since ending his "Life is Worth Losing" Tour. The working title for this show was The Parade of Useless Bullshit. Filmed in the Wells Fargo Center for the Arts in Santa Rosa, California, the show"s stage behind Carlin is designed to represent a cozy living room theme. As one of the room props, the audience can see a picture of Richard Pryor on a shelf, perhaps an homage to Carlin"s friend.[citation needed] The CD was released July 29, and the DVD and Blu-ray Disc were released on November 25.
It"s Bad For Ya received the Grammy Award for Best Comedy Album, awarded posthumously.
