his estate doesn't have much of a sense of humor.

I will sue them for insulting my intelligence for assuming I'd think this is real.

Watch the entire hour-long comedy special 'George Carlin: I'm Glad I'm Dead' on YouTube: https://youtu.be/2kONMe7YnO8

Did you read the article? It's Canadian has-been comedian Will Sasso, who used to be on Mad TV decades ago. I think it's a slam dunk. It's a theft of identity and intellectual property. Worst of all, it just wasn't funny, at all.

Guilty as charged! 30 days probation and reading ALL of @paul_neri 's old posts.

LOL, I see you ordered the "Paul Neri school of charm subliminal tape-cassette course". Good luck with that. Though I will say, He is a damn charming individual.

Came with complimentary Castor oil and hands-free Hemorrhoid applicator (one half ethically sourced Bamboo rolling pin).

He was funny when he had MadTV writers providing material; much like most of the folks from that show, it seems.

Sad.

Meh, they just have to retitle it - 'A night-out with NOT-George Carlin or A night-in with George Carlin AI'.

Curious how animations/ cartoon shows get away with doing 'celebrity representations' and trolling literal dead people all the time. ?/

I think they'd be well within their rights to do that, especially if they present it as "homage". I personally don't care. George Carlin was a despicable person, and his daughter Kelly Carlin is a narcissistic, self-entitled little shit who begged for a free first class flight on an airplane when her father died, claiming she was traumatized and begging for unwarranted sympathy. Fuck her.

Yea fck her.
IKR, He was funny up to a point - but iirc he also seemed to endorse the anti-White narrative.
Plus i couldn't really give a shit essentially about the family missing out on royalties, so fck them too.

I mean can i not also my own half assed impersonation of him on my (non existent) ytube channel? without asking them for permission

The robo-lawyers will settle this case WITH MAXIMUM PREJUDICE!
