One Child, No grandchildren


Sad that his legacy ended that way.

Edit:
Looked into it. While raising a child he and his wife partied a lot: weed, cocaine, LSD etc, alcoholic (wife).... Not a healthy environment for a successful family tree.

I think he would disagree. "No one gives a shit about your kids but you."

How would they carry on his legacy? If a grandchild went into comedy everyone would just scream nepotism. I think Carlin lives on regardless of any offspring.

From an evolutionary point of view, a complete failure.

Oh JFC, Carlin's legacy is a cultural one. It has nothing to do with passing along DNA. As if his grandchild would have been a comedian like him?

reply

However, Joe Piscopo has been much more successful when it comes to the gene pool.

Is that guy still kickin'?

reply

George Carlin has had way more of an impact & influence than Piscopo ever did.

joe isn't to hot when it comes to standup...but in skits he is great.
