If you're going to react to Carol Burnett, you MUST do "The Elephant story". 😂🐘
Absolutely they must!
That one is hilarious 🤣🤣
dentist: Tim Conway; patient: Harvey Korman
This 10000 times
Tim Conway as the Nazi interrogator is my favorite
Tim Conway who plays the dentist was known for going off script. He was always ad libbing every script they did. Harvey korman who's playing the patient can never keep character when he's in a skit with Tim Conway. That was the gold in watching the show back in the day. To see who could not laugh during the skit. Tim Conway was a master. Rest in peace
That was the real fun - seeing how long Korman would last until Conway made him break character, which was ALL THE TIME! I was noting today that we kinda have the same vibe with SNL today. For example, McKinnon would make cast members break, and Hader broke character a lot. It's the fun of the sketches!
On a late-night talk show, Tim Conway said he made Harvey Korman pee his pants because he laughed so much. Moreover, Harvey could not leave since he was stuck sitting in that dental chair. Tim was known to ad-lib, especially when he was working with Harvey. They worked well together and remained good friends for decades after "The Carol Burnett Show" ended. They even would tour the country, giving shows about their careers and redoing some sketch comedies they performed. You guys should watch the sketch called "The Elephant Story," which has Carol Burnett, Tim Conway, Vicki Lawrence, and Dick Van Dyke.
yep in this skit Tim said during rehersals that it was a pretty boring skit so he decided to liven it up and do new stuff, which is the stuff that happened when he injected his hand. At that point Korman knew what Tim was going somewhere else with the scene and everything after that Korman knew nothing about.
Very well put! Loved that show!
@@DianaPriceWriter Lorne Michaels creator/producer of SNL hates when someone breaks character. He has been known to replace an actor in a skit if they can't hold it together during rehearsal. He actually scolded David Spade when he was having trouble keeping it together. Lorne said "Get your sh*t together, this isn't the Carol Burnett Show". I think the main reason he hates the character break is that SNL is a live show and there is only so much time per skit.
Fun fact during the skit Korman actually peed himself he was laughing so hard.
Me too 😂
Yes, I heard
Korman said that.
Tim Conway’s mission was to make Harvey break character in every skit!
I watched an interview with Vicki Lawrence about the “elephant story”. She said the producer came into her dressing room before the show and said “Tim has something planned, good luck”.
When I was a kid, my family watched "The Carol Burnett Show" every Saturday night. What great memories!
Every Saturday night! After MASH, All in the Family, and the Bob Newhart Show.
Oh, and Hee HAw if I remember correctly.
@@DianaPriceWriter Back in those days, I remember huge boxing matches with legends such as Muhammad Ali and George Foreman on national TV on weekend nights for free. There was no such thing as Pay Per View yet. And then there was that magical night once per year when The Wizard of Oz was shown on national TV. It almost seemed like a holiday or something because we all looked forward to watching it so much.
@@bostonwhofan Me too. Before internet, computers, cell phones, ATMs, and when we had 3 channels: if you missed something, you missed it. Unless, of course, you could figure out how to program your VCR to record it.
The Carol Burnett Show is a gold mine of comedy! Carol, Vicki Lawrence, Lyle Waggoner, Harvey Korman, and Tim Conway, (the last two were in the sketch you just watched), made up the main cast. They would do spoofs of movies and TV commercials. Carol was known for her 'Tarzan' yell and taking questions from the audience before the main show. She was also known for a funny impersonation of Queen Elizabeth. Fun fact: Lucille Ball was one of her mentors! One of the more popular sketches was "The Family" which was spun off as a sitcom in the early 80s called "Mama's Family".
Yeah, Carol and Lucy were best friends. Lucy sent Carol flowers, every year, for her birthday. When Lucy died, a few days later, on Carol's birthday, flowers arrived---Lucy had ordered then, before she died. Carol said she just cried and cried!!
@@catwhisperer9489 what?! It really hurts to read that! Both were comedy goddesses
@@juniorcruzjr.8885
I know.... 😢
The bald guy is Tim Conway and the patient was Harvey Korman (and yes, he was in Blazing Saddles). They were extremely funny and there are lots of great skits from this show. I recommend watching “Went With the Wind” a parody of “Gone With the Wind.” It’s incredibly funny and you’ll get to see Carol Burnett as “Starlett O’Hara” and Harvey Korman as “Captain Ratt Butler” (which of course, won’t mean much to you if you’ve never seen the original movie but I suspect you’d laugh anyway). Love watching your reactions. I’ve been subscribed for several months now.
Tim was also in the movie "The Apple Dumpling Gang" with Don Knotts (Deputy Barney Fife from the Andy Griffith Show).
@@dogsoldiertoo1099 Funny, funny movie. Comic geniuses.
@@dogsoldiertoo1099I love that movie!
And of course, don't forget about the "Dorf On Sports" videos.
The bald guy is Harvey Korman get your facts straight dude
Korman was also the voice of The Great Gazoo when the Flintstones jumped the shark.
Watching younger generations digging the Carol Burnett show, especially this skit, is a glowing tribute to Carol and her entire show cast. Laughter and comedy is indeed - universal.
... and timeless!
Tim and Harvey are the best. Tim made it his mission to crack Harvey up during skits. The long clip of the elephant story is a must watch. There are two clips a long one and shorter one....make sure you get the long one. Also the firefighter sketch is so funny as well.
As someone who grew up with Carol Burnett and saw every show they did over the entire 11 year run it is shocking to realize there are young people who have no idea who she is and have never seen reruns of this comedy legend.
Saw them do this in person many years later and it still had the audience in stitches. Carol is still with us in her 90's.
Vicki Lawrence is living today too.
it's important to note that this was LIVE TV and Tim Conway was fond of ad-libbing which is evident bu watching Harvey Korman's reaction. This was not what was scripted. Genius.
It wasn't live.
@@jethro1963 yes, your right.
"The Elephant story" is an absolute MUST. One of the funniest skits I've ever seen!
The Carol Burnett show was one of the only few shows we used to watch together as a family. Lucille Ball from I Love Lucy was her idol and she took Carol Burnett under her wing in the beginning of her career. She even appeared on The Carol Burnett show and did iconic skits and musical numbers with her. I miss the good old days when there used to be shows like this.😊
You folks are just lost. You missed out on so many great shows!! I am glad that you are discovering them now, and, for those of us who grew up watching these gems, a chance to laugh all over again. This skit is from 1969. Pure gold!!
Tim Conway was very famous between the 60-80s as he was first on the tv show Mchale Navy and then the Carol Burnett Show. Tim's goal on the show was to crack up Harvey (the patient) as well as Carol and the rest. Both guys went out to make Disney flicks together that were relatively successful because they were cheap to make. Tim's son is on the radio in Los Angeles and the guy sounds like a clone of his father. To the point where on the Johnny Carson show (i think) they did a skit where Tim was creating a echo of himself when in reality it was his son doing the echo Harvey was the guy on Blazing Saddles as well as at least one other Mel Brooks film. The irony of this show was that when SNL was first created, they made a point of being the anti-Carol Burnett show in that they didn't want their actors to break and start laughing in the middle of the skit. The irony being that some of the funniest skits SNL has done resulted from actors breaking character. The Debbie Downer skits were only funny because no one could stop from laughing.
"Disney flicks together" is in error, Tim and Don Knotts.
@@niapeeplesrarities7924 yes , you are correct
The Carol Burnett Show was a variety show including skits and musical performances. Any skit involving Tim Conway and Harvey Korman are solid gold comedy. Tim never stayed on script and Harvey could never stay in character. Tim didn't just do skits with Harvey Korman though. There are also many movie spoofs, of which you most likely wouldn't understand the references, but may still enjoy the comedy. Tim started out as a recurring guest on the show before finally being made a full fledge regular.
If you ever do the elephant story skit, the background on it is that the show had rehearsals in the morning, where they would read through the skits... then they would have a rehearsal in front of the audience that evening... then the final skit for tv...and word got around that tim Conway, in usual form, was going to change the story in the skit to try and make everyone laugh. Carol Burnette ran around telling everyone, and was like "ok, we have to remain strong, and not laugh"... well, at show time he did, in front of the live audience, and they had to do a retake, neither of which ever aired on tv. The video is of the two takes.. dick van Dyke was the star that night, and he's sitting on the arm of the chair. You have to see it. It's awesome. Great reaction. Thank you. 😊 make sure you choose the video that is almost 5 minutes... not the shorter one.
Vicky Lawrence (playing Mama) stole the skit away from Tim with just one sentence.
The whole cast and cameos was a riot. Lots of people barely holding it together during some sketches. So funny. Sketches like the elephant story, gone with the wind, So good.
So many great episodes. The Elephant Story, Went with the Wind, As the Stomach Turns: Close Encounters (has Betty White in it); Norma Desmond, The Oldest Man: Galley Slaves, The Family: Sorry!, Tudball and Wiggins. Catch some clips of her just talking with the audience. She did it before/after each show. She's a true treasure. Tim Conway, Vicki Lawrence, and Harvey Korman were her most regular regulars, and Tim always cracked Harvey up. Fun fact: Vicki Lawrence is a singer, and had a great hit with That's The Night The Lights Went Out in Georgia.
Carol was also a fantastic singer and her singing and also doing duets with other guest star singers, and other musical and dance numbers were part of the show, not just the comedy skits. It was a Musical and Variety Show . We NEVER missed one during its long run.
Harvey Korman, the patient, laughed so hard that he actually peed his pants in this scenes. I grew up with this show, and it was part of a now classic lineup of Saturday Prime Time shows.
That Bald Guy was Tim Conway, a very famous Comedian made very fpopular by this show. He was also my Client back in the 2000s when I worked at Bevery Hills Luggage in California . I grew up watching these shows with my parents and he and his wire were really nice and I was so happy to meet him. Carol Burnett is still alive in her 90s and was a World Famous Comedian and Actress.. She also did a lot of stuff with her friend Lucille Ball.. Lucy.
Tim Conway almost always deviated from the script. As was said below check out, "The Elephant Story".
It's my understanding that Harvey Korman laughed so had in this skit that he peed his pants!
Great reaction y'all.
As we say in Texas; y'all be safe.
It was great fun watching this every week to see who would crack up laughing while trying to keep a straight face. Tim Conway (the dentist) was notorious for ad-libbing and making everyone else laugh. Another good episode is the "Sorry" episode where the family plays Sorry! and Viki Lawrence made Carol Burnett lose it.
Incredibly, The Carol Burnett Show was ALWAYS filmed before a live studio audience. There was so much talent with just the regular cast of people, Carol Burnett, Vicky Laurence, Harvey Korman, Tim Conway and Lyle Wagoner. There were stars (movie, T.V., singers, comedians, etc) at the time who couldn't wait to be on the show!! Harvey Korman was in Blazing Saddles" the second Flintstones movie "Viva Rock Vegas" Harvey did many movies with Mel Brooks another very funny writer, director, actor, comedian, Mel Brooks is a legend also. Harvey Korman was the patient and Tim Conway was the Dentist in this skit. The Carol Burnett Show is one of, if not THE best comedy skit Television shows EVER!!! The amount of talented legendary stars who came on to be guests was incredible!!! Carol Burnett is a beloved part of our childhood!!! Those of us blessed to be alive during this time, hold Carol's gold standards of quality to EVERYONE that comes after her. She is one tough act to follow!!! We cherish her, her regular castmates, and everyone involved in the making of this show!!! 💖
I absolutely love watching people react this for the first time! These two are hilarious along with Carol!😂😂😂
The bald guy was Tim Conway, in his later years, he did the DWARF-GOLF shows and he also starred on Disney's "The Apple Dumpling Gang," with Don Knotts. Harvey Korman was in quite a few of Mel Brooks' movies including Blazing Saddles. He was the voice of Gazoo on the Flintstones. Tim Conway was known for NOT going by the script on the show. It was a hilarious challenge for the cast not to break character when Tim Conway was involved. His ad lib on the sketches were comedy gold.
U should check out the skit where carol Burnett walks down the big staircase and her dress is made out of her curtains i think shes playing scarlet
"Went With the Wind"
Elephant story is a total must and it has them all in it
I wish Tim and Harvey were here to watch young folks enjoy this sketch today. It’s a classic.
The Elephant Story has Tim Conway (the bald guy), Carol Burnett as Eunice, Vicki Lawrence as Mama, and Dick Van Dyke as a guest star. It's also hilarious.
Carol Burnett let other members of the cast shine in the skits. She also had musical guests. It was a variety show. At the start of every show she would take and answer questions from the audience. All her shows were in front of a live audience.
Any skit where Tim Conway (bald) plays the Old Man is hilarious. 1 where he plays a shoe salesman and Carol Burnett plays an Old Woman and the sparks fly. A classic.
What was great about the Carol Burnett was the cast had a ball working together, they were always laughing at each other! They couldn't help it and that would make you laugh even more! Another great show from the past...
OMG - Here "Went With The Wind" sketch was HILARIOUS!! Used to watch this show: every week and LOOKED FORWARD TO IT!! Ya'll will enjoy her comedy!! Also: "Once Upon A Mattress" sketch from the show (she also played in this show on Broadway, I believe) was SO FUNNY!! HUGS, YA'LL!!
I remember the line “pinchy picky pully” stuck in my head for a long time
I can remember back in the 1970s, when this aired on television. I have friends, currently, who still die laughing when they see this skit.
$20 was a lot in the 1970s.
Tim Conway (dentist) always left me crying.
It’s so great that you’re watching all of these old shows. I was born in1964 so I grew up work all of these shows you’re watching. So much better than todays tv
Anything Carol Burnet as Eunice, and a Vickie Lawrence as Momma.😂
They made ig a game to see how they could crack each other up on camera, breaking character, laughing. Everyone waited to see if it would happen.
The 🐘 story is a MUST!😂😂😂❤
YES!!!! "The Elephant Story" is a MUST....... Also "The Family: Sorry" & also "Best Cast BUST UP'S" & part 2
Fantastic job guys! As a Gen Xer it’s great to see you are discovering the things that made me laugh growing up 😊
If you’d like to see a really funny skit from that show with Carol Burnett you need to see her and Tim Conway play the Boss and secretary role…FUNNY 😂😂
One ringy dingy
A great sketch to highlight Carol Burnett herself would be one she did with a guest on the show for that episode. The guest was Robin Williams and the sketch is “The Funeral”.
These were live stage shows, the laughter is real. Also, those two used to try and make each other lose it on stage.
In an interview Harvey Korman said that Tim Conway had him laughing so hard that he literally peed his pants!
Gone with the wind sketch is hilarious. The best Scarlett O'Hara ever
Carol Burnett was in every show, her variety show ran from 1966 Till 1977. She wasn't in every sketch, but was in a lot of them. She is an amazing comedic actress. This was so fun seeing this sketch again, thanks.
This show was filmed live in front of a studio audience.
You have to watch the sorry game...and the elephant story.
It was the best!
They usually did each scene twice, with unscripted ADD LIBS allowed in the 2nd one and if it was better they would put that in the show. Tim could usually crack the others up with his plots. Tim was in a lot of Disney movies, Apple Dumpling Gang, The Shaggy DA amidst other movies and shows/cartoon's, played Barnacle Boy in Sponge Bob for a long time. Yes, the other guy was in Blazzin Saddles.
This is my childhood..Look up the old man skits with Tim Conway on this show. Its hysterical
Tim Conway a comedy genius and ad lib all the time to deliberately make whoever was in the skit with him, crack up. No one could hold it together when he went for it.
How do you get to be almost 40 years of age and never have heard of Carol Burnett? I understand how a Millennial or younger may not have seen her show -- but to not even have heard of her? Crazy.
"Went with the Wind" (a spoof of "Gone with the Wnd") has Carol Burnett in it, along with Harvey Kornan (the guy with the toothache, here), Tim Conway (dentist, here), Vicki Lawrence (Mama on "Mama's Family"), and the late great Dinah Shore---SOOOOO funny!!
I'm so glad y'all liked this skit!! I've seen it, a million times, and it still puts me in sritches!!
Went With the Wind is Carol at her funniest!!!
@@anitac.751 : Yeah, absolutely hysterical !!! 😂
So happy to see you enjoy the work of these late great comedians. I remember watching this when it first aired. One of the reasons Tim Conway and Harvey Korman were paired up with each other for skits on the Carol Burnett Show was because Harvey always broke up when working with Tim. It became part of the fun and they always made for the most memorable skits.
The Dentist was played by comedy genius Tim Conway. The patient was played by actor Harvey Korman. Korman played Hedley Lamarr in Blazing Saddles. Both of these talented actors have many movies in their careers. Tim Conway was a very well known actor. They both were regulars on the Carol Burnett Show. Thanks for the reaction video. Its nice to see you all enjoying a scene that i remember as a child having been born in 1971. Brings back nostalgic memories🙋🏻♀️👍💜✌🏻
This was when comedians were at their best. They were a master of their craft. Comedians like Tim Conway was so talented. They don't make'em like they use to. I miss Tim he sure knew how to make the world laugh. God Bless Tim Conway!!!
In dental school, they showed this to us before our first day in clinic seeing our first patients
Poor Harvey Korman, he wanted to bust out laughing😅
Love the reaction!! ♥ also.... When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them because they were confused and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.
Matthew 9:36
Time used to get Harvey laughing by saying the word " koala" The way he said it always made Harvey lose it! LOL
Carol Burnett was hysterical. There were a million skits on that show. You guys should watch a lot of the skits. You guys will be in stitches 😂
“Gone With the Wind”. Hands down one of the funniest skits of all time!
I grew up with Carol Burnett and this brings back so many memories. As recommended you have to watch the elephant story.
The cast on her shows were incredible, every week! They also need to do the "As the stomach turns" episodes!! BTW, 🌟 Fun fact: Vicky Lawrence sang the first version of "The night the lights went out in Georgia." Not many folks realize that. Reba remade it, and did a fantastic job, but it's Vicky's song. ❤
Welcome to television as it was meant to be. Carol Burnett was a classic.
Yes! If you react to Carol there are many great ones but when she plays Eunice she’s at her best, they are usually called “The Family” skits, Tim Conway plays the dentist in this sketch he also played a doofus named Mickey who was bff of Harvey Kormans (the patient) character Ed who was married to Eunice. Tim was famous for trying to make the actors break character and laugh and he really does it in the sketch called “The elephant story “, it’s hysterical! Other great ones are “Sorry!” Where Vicki Lawrence (Mama) is the one to ad lib and noticeably throws Carol who tries not to laugh. As a whole the Family sketches were the best and every one is a gem, leading to the Mama’s Family series in the eighties. Enjoy!
Tim Conway was hilarious. Poor Harvey Korman trying to stay in character lmao. When I was a kid in the 70s, Carol Burnettes uncle lived behind us. He got us tickets to the show. We sat in the front and she talked to us. She's an amazing woman.
Tim Conway was one of the funniest performers who ever lived. His improv skills were legendary and always made other people in skits break character and laugh.
You're correct about Blazing Saddles. That's one of my favorite skits ever.
Truly one of the funniest of all their skits, Timeless as you can see.
Tim Conway and Harvey Corman - two of the funniest people who ever lived. Both of them are gone now, but you need to watch more. They almost always end up cracking up in these sketches.
Any of your favorite comedians today would bow to Miss Burnett
Carol Burnett as Scarlet O’Hara in their “Gone With The Wind” sketch…one of her best!
"Went With the Wind." It's a take-off on a classic movie, and it's one of my favorite Carol Burnett skits.
What the elephant sketch. Carol and Tim are in it.
Tim making others break character always makes me laughing in tears.
Tim Conway was in McHale's Navy. He did make movies. Harvey Korman did the voice of the Great Gazoo on the Flinstones.
Carol Burnett is still alive at 90. It was on for 11 seasons from 1967-1978. It was a variety show... with musical guests and very talented ensemble cast.... It's treasure trove of great comedy. Her movie spoofs are the best! Also The Jackson Five were on many times as musical guests. The the recurring sketch "mamas house" with characters that were long lasting, and even one of the sketches turned into a TV series with Carol Burnett is this crazy, southern woman, name Eunice, her cantankerous mother "Mama" and many guests playing relatives, including Eunice's older wealthy sister Ellen, played by Betty White!
The actor who plays the patient , was in a Mell Brooks called " Blazing Saddles ". Which is a MUST watch!!!!
“Went With the Wind” is a GREAT one from the Carol Burnett show 😊😂
Tim Conway would always make everyone laugh their ass off,and it was live. It's fun to watch the other people try not to laugh during the seen.
I remember watching this skit when it originally aired on TV way back when, and I was laughing as hard as Harvey Korman. This is comedy gold. The Carol Burnett Show was one of the top variety shows on TV.
Carol Burnett sketch "Went with the Wind" is a must-see.
Tim Conway and Harvey Korman, were so funny together. Loved the Carol Burnett Show.
LOVE how Tim Conway ["the bald guy"] and Harvey Korman always cracked each other up so badly on stage. Those skits were done live. You also must see their "Elephant" skit, and "Gone with the Wind" skit.
Yes, Harvey Korman did play "Hedley Lamarr" in Blazing Saddles. He also did 3 other Mel Brooks movies.
Tim Conway (the bald guy) also voiced Barnacle Boy from _Spongebob_ .
For The Carol Burnett Show, I highly recommend any of "Mrs. Wiggins" sketches.
Fun fact: I read Tim Conway's memoir, What's So Funny, My Hilarious Life, and he got the idea of injecting his hand from when he was in the army. He had to see an army dentist and the dentist accidentally poked himself in the thumb. Tim made it his mission in life to "get Harvey" and it seemed to have worked every time.
Wish all dentists would let us negotiate the price - LOL!
Another great sketch from the Carol Burnett show is called a Dog's Life. Carol just let Tim do whatever he wanted and the Carol Burnett Show won a lot of Emmys.
Tim Conway, the dentist, was a regular guest on the Carol Burnett show. In fact he was so regular, most people just thought he was part of the cast but, IIRC, he didn't officially join the cast until the last season. He made it his mission in life to try to get other characters in skits to break character laughing. He would go rogue and deviate from the official script and the result was usually much better than what was originally planned. Harvey Korman, the patient (and AG in Blazing Saddles) what the one who most had trouble keeping it together so, naturally, he was Tim's prime target.
You should check out a skit called "the Elephant Story". He managed to get the entire cast busting up so hard that one of them called him an a-hole while the cameras were rolling.
Watching Harvey try not to break is worth it all on its own. Hysterical
Tim Conway was a great comedian. The Elephant skit from the Caol burnett show was one of his best. Tim also did a lot of movies with Don Knotts for disney. One of my favorite non-disney movies from his is the Private eyes. Hilarious.
I read this was based on a true story, this happened to Tim Conway when he was in the Army; the Dentist shot thru Conway's mouth into his own hand.
Most familiar Carol Burnette skits usually involved "Mama's Family," which was spun off into a TV series.
Carol Burnett is a comedian. She had her own sitcom show weekly call the care of it. It shows where they did several different short sets of comic situation very popular. She used to tug her ear to say good night to her grandma, or something she’s also been in movies.
Tim Conway is the Bald Guy and the Elephant and Circus Story Sketch is a MUST SEE
The dentist never gets old. No matter how many times you've heard and seen it.
If y'all want to react to Carol Burnett and the bald guy (Tim Conway) you MUST do "The Elephant story". It's a classic! Tim Conway had everyone breaking character with laughter.
Another good sketch is one of their "Family" ones called "Sorry". It's a classic! 🤣
The reason Harvey Korman (the patient) was losing it is that he had never seen most of this before because Tim Conway was ad libbing. Freaking hilarious
