George Carlin had a long relationship with HBO. He made 14 specials for the channel, most recently "It's Bad for Ya." So it's fitting that HBO -- well, actually, HBO2 -- is giving over two nights of programming to the comedian, who died on Sunday. Here's the HBO2 schedule:

WEDNESDAY, June 25
8 p.m.: George Carlin at USC (1977)
9 p.m.: George Carlin Again! (1978)
11 p.m.: Carlin at Carnegie (1983)
12 a.m.: Carlin on Campus (1984)
1 a.m.: Playin' With Your Head (1986)

THURSDAY, June 26
8 p.m.: What Am I Doing in New Jersey (1988)
9 p.m.: Doing It Again (1990)
10 p.m.: Jammin' in New York (1992)
11 p.m.: Back in Town (1996)
12:05 a.m.: You Are All Diseased (1999)
1 a.m.: It's Bad for Ya (2008)

Also, HBO will air "It's Bad for Ya" on Friday at 9.
