I always preferred George's lower-key act from the 70s, but I still liked his cranky-old-guy stuff to. Love him or hate him, he was an influence on modern comics.

He'll be missed.

Definitely an important comic.

"Seven words you can't say on television". Genius (even if you can say most of 'em on tv these days.. I think Deadwood uses all seven every ten minutes or so!)
