... it wasn't "A Comedy riot!... Fun for the whole family!"

"The Arisocrats" gave me insight into comedy as an improvised art form. Although I found the constant "potty talk" tedious, there were some wonderful moments. This was comedy with Jazz mentality.
As usual Carlin's reading was head and shoulders over everyone else, but there were other funny bits and pieces. Pollacks routine as Christopher Walken was hilarious, and the presentation of old comedians with kinder, gentler readings, verses the new comedian more vile and relentless version of the same joke was interesting and telling. It wasn't a film to be easily discounted just because it wasn't "a comedy riot-fun for the whole family!"

I just wish I could have seen Bill Hicks tell that joke.
