Goodnights
…..George Carlin
George Carlin: Just wanna thank you all for havingsome live fun with us — you at home andeverybody here. And wanna thank all the guests, ofcourse: Janis Ian, Billy Preston, Albert Brooks, theMuppets, Valri Bromfield, Andy Kaufman, the Not quiteReady for Prime Time Players and everyone who tookpart in this. And I would not be sensible and sane ifI didn’t tell ya [holds up a copy of hisGrammy-nominated comedy album “An Evening with WallyLondo, Featuring Bill Slazso”] I got a brand new albumthis week. I hope you’ll see it. Bye-bye.
[Applause. The SNL Band plays the closing theme forthe first time. Carlin waves goodnight, interacts withthe crowd and, at one point, mimes falling asleep aswe see the following credits:]
