We need more Carol Burnett’s nowadays ! Love watching the skits over and over again and laugh 😂 no matter how many times I’ve seen them ! Rewind, rewind, laugh 😂, rewind 😂 again ! My Father loved Tim and Harvey with the crack ups, it’s a childhood thing, loved watching my Father laugh out loud. 🥰 Good TV back then !
Thanks for uploading this. people who criticize this don't know that this was the style of talk shows back then. there were only 1-2 guests and the host was genuinely interested in the guest and wanted the audience to know the guest on a personal level and not ask the same old questions that get asked today. Again Thanks.
Smart, funny and beautiful lady. My childhood would not have been the same without her and the cast of her show. I still laugh just as hard as I did back in the 70's. Great comedy like hers stands the test of time.
I was lucky enough to see The Carol Burnett Show a few times live in Hollywood. She is the nicest and most gracious individual I've ever met in Show Business. I will never forget getting a kiss on the cheek during one of her shows. May God bless Carol Burnett,
So glad that the Dick Cavett shows are still here for us to watch. Today's generation needs to see what made all these performers so great. Being an entertainer was much different then. It's lovely to see what genuine and gracious people these stars were.
All too often when viewing TV shows from this era the people on the screen are gone now, so it's nice to know Carol is still working at 91 and Dick is 87 with at least one TV appearance in the 2020s.
I remember her last show when she tugged on her ear...Sad. Saturday nights were never the same. I knew it then and it never was. What a line up we had in the seventies.
@@m.e.d.7997 she came on Monday or Tuesday nights in my neck of the woods. Never failed to watch the Carol Burnett show and play or act out some of the gags at school. Right now today I still make my friends laugh and I can see the joy in their face after a dreary day that they had a laugh to remember.
I grew up watching The Carol Burnett Show. She always had the most down to earth personality. I think this is why people love her as they do. She is candid and honest whenever she is interviewed. Very genuine. Doesnt come off snobby or arrogant.
It's like stepping back in a time machine and going back to those good old days of television. Carol Burnett is a lovely woman and great decent person. That is so rare to see today in Hollywood. Carol said that her life sounds like being goodie too shoes. She is very modest. There is nothing wrong with being decent or civil.
There are plenty of nice people in Hollywood,today,you just don't hear about them. they don't make the sensational news,but,not a few are devoted to great causes. no need to be so cynical,yet,the main difference today,is that the ones that go nuts;go very nuts,and,are more covered by the media than they used to be.
I thank God for this lady. One of the greatest funniest time I spent was watch Carol Burnett. Me and my younger sister enjoyed her, buying fresh bagels a local bakery and watching this show was one of the best times I had with my sister and Ms. Burnett.
Thank you for uploading this amazing interview. They are so gorgeous together and her final response regarding what she likes about him must have been resonating with him long after the interview, before he went to sleep back at home. Those two have had an amazing electricity.
I was fortunate to grow up in a time when shows like Carol Burnett, Dick Cavett and others were on the air. The comedy was refreshing without going over the unseen boundaries of vulgarity. My heart is warmed when thinking of times when kids could actually watch shows like Carol Burnett with their parents and the parents didn't feel they needed to censor things and the whole family was entertained. Jerry Seinfeld said something like If a comedian has to rely on being vulgar, is he really a comedian? Or something like that...
@@GlennaVan because the shysh they got on TV is not even funny or entertaining, and these reality shows about all these housewives spitting and throwing drinks on themselves, we need real entertainers instead of wanna be rappers trying to act.
@@randysills4418 I hope that wasn't the interview with Oprah (or Barbara Walters) when the host kept going back to her daughter. It was both extremely rude and cruel. There was far more to Carol Burnett than her daughter's tragedy. The host didn't even want her to change the subject to her daughter's successes! It was clear Carol wanted to talk about more than a single tragedy in her life and there certainly has been far more to her life than that part.
I'm 12 and I admire Carol Burnett and I try to show my friends her show but they decline and talk bad about her and the haven't even seen her. What should I do???
I grew up watching her show, and falling in love with her. Her beauty is fascinating, because there is hardly a single physical thing about her face, figure, etc. that is beautiful, except for all of her, inspired by that spirit of hers. Then she's gorgeous. I take part of that back ... it's her eyes.
What a delight! I remember watching both Carol Burnett and Dick Cavett, nearly every week. They were both wonderful.. Mr. Cavett always had the most interesting/fascinating guests.
You kind of need to have watched Cavett in the 70s when it aired to understand his style, which was a reaction to other kinds of interviewers. It was the time of "rap sessions", of having very honest non-social talk. He brought that to the TV and was considered "hip" TV. It doesn't translate well to current times, but back then he was considered pretty cool for his original, talkative, get-personal style.
I agree. He was just about the best talk show host ever. Maybe the fact that he didn't run down a list of pre-approved questions makes him seem too egotistical nowadays. But that was what made him the best: He didn't conduct interviews, he had conversations.
Lynn Turman It's like he is talking to you at your kitchen table. Just like a natural conversation between them like no one else is there. Now that makes a great interview IMO. Dick never had a formal rehearsed feel to him. I think that placed all of his guests at great ease.
I wasn't alive in those days but I get the same feeling from his show today. All the current talk shows are very fake and also tediously political. There have been no hosts in Dick Cavett's style since the man himself and I think if a host like him came along today he would be just as refreshing and revolutionary.
@@crystalemeralddiamond9571 That's what they told me also. However, I still have an ice addition when my iron count is high so there's that. It might simply mean we like the ice! It is much better for us than candy, etc.
@@GlennaVan some women going through the change use ice to alleviate menopause, I figured it out as I'd hustle ice to my Mom. She did not leave the house without ice. RIP MOM. I always had your ice ready.
Now that Tim Conway and Carol Burnett are in their 80s, I would love to see them do the "old couple" routine. Of course they probably get around better now than the characters they played in the 1970s.
@@Setebos the funniest shysh on TV at that time, never failed to deliver laughs. And the ingenuity of a creative name for your boss, Mr Turdball, everyone thinks their boss is a turdball in them days funny as f**k.
We need some talk shows like this now where the host just sits and talks realistically with famous folks. Has real conversations, and the person interviewed is genuine, not playing up for the camera too much, and ask real questions. It is hard to deal with shows where each person gets 3 min, is asked all the same questions every time, has no time to be themselves. I also think people looked more realistic then, even though people claim HD makes folks look real and flawed now, everyone looks false now. I really think they looked more like real people back then.
I'm not an American, for which reason I'd not heard of this delightful lady - which is clearly my great loss. She seems to be the least affected, most relaxed and completely natural person I've seen on any show anywhere.... Strikes me she'd be a great neighbour to have? Which is as fully positive an opinion I've ever formed about anyone on the basis of a short bit of TV type viewing. The world would be a much, much better place if there were an awful lot more Carol Burnetts... But sadly, that ain't the way of it. And that's all I have to say about her!
She was the first female comedian that I truly found funny--and not just because of good lines, I mean when she was not prepared, and was speaking off the cuff. Just very funny person.
Dick Caveat is the finest TV personality, journalist and talk show host EVER-period. There have been hundreds over the years now.... But Dick ALWAYS delivered. Even with the awful guests (Brando comes to mind) Dick would always turn it on its head. Genuinely love and thank Dick Caveat for his contribution to entertainment and history and the enjoyment he has provided us for all these years.

I love her. A comedic genius. Met her once and she was perhaps one of the nicest people I have ever met. Down to earth and very kind.
The happiest time of my teenage years was watching The Carol Burnett Show and Mary Tyler Moore Show on television.
Was so depressed when they went off the air.
I agree.
Great entertainment, I'd say!
Yesssss, me too ! I appreciate the show more now, knowing what I know these days, so beautifully done !

+Nichet Tucker I agree. Most of today's talk shows are trashy and have pretentious hosts who make derogatory remarks.
This was indeed a true "talk show". Most late night shows are-as Johnny Carson used to say-variety shows.

"If I could have just taken care of them..." Honestly. I tried really hard not to cry. But that got me.
Where was that?
Found it. ~42:50.
Don't ever do that again!
When you mention a point, tell all it's location. I'll be keeping my 👀 on you.
I enjoyed this. To me, Carol Burnett and Lucille Ball represent the golden age of the US. Thank you so much for posting it!
We had Gracie, then Lucy, then Carol. Best is that we had Lucy and Carol together sometimes - what a pair!
@@GlennaVan Yes, they could act so hilarious together even when they tried not to break character it never stopped being funny.

I like Dick Cavett, he gives people enough time to talk about themselves without interrupting them which seems the style of chat show hosts nowadays.
My happiest years were also watching the Carol Burnett Show & MTM. Such amazing performers & so funny. Will never see their likes again.
I just find it so touching how she took her sister in and raised her during her teenage years.
What a beautiful and wonderful person. Loved her show as a kid. Me and my mother would watch and laugh. She is a National Treasure.
I could watch Carol Burnett all day and night, just such a down to earth person, never unkind, and such a multitalented person, a beautiful soul.
"After the movies, did the streets seem less real to you?" - What a great question! Cavett is so cool.
I loved that question. I thought I was the only one to whom it felt a "bit off" when leaving the movie theater.
I thank God for this lady. One of the greatest funniest time I spent was watch Carol Burnett. Me and my younger sister enjoyed her, buying fresh bagels a local bakery and watching this show was one of the best times I had with my sister and Ms. Burnett.
My birthday is February 21,1984! Ten years after this interview, to the day, I arrived on this planet by the grace of Almighty God!
Carol is so brilliant! What a cool lady. Thank you for sharing.

Carol talking about her mom and dad made me bawl my head off.

Thank you for this entertaining hour with two favorite people!
I wish I could be like Carol Burnette! She is the greatest! Also so amazing gorgeous!
I love how she brought her clutch out with her.
I think Dick had a little crush on Carol,
+Servis Smile Inc. and vice versa, I would say
Dick likes the ladies.
Who doesn't?
Totally agree and she had a bit of a crush on him.
He admitted he did when she was his guest in 1971
I can't look at the set without remembering Katharine Hepburn rearranging the furniture.
I went "oh, they put the tables back..."
Hepburn is one of my favorite interviews !
“At the right place at the right time.” The major reason most people will be “successful.”
Probably the most versatile actor in entertainment history 💕🎭👑
Carol Burnett just might be the greatest all around comedian of all time. To this day, young people who see her show totally enjoy her skits.

dave andrews you know my dad hates her I don't know why , she is soooooo damn funny, & he hated Lucielle Ball also
Your Dad was from a different generation. Back then a lot of men resented female comedians.
Dick Cavett is a great interviewer. He has a great way of drawing out his guests - the same as his mentor, Jack Paar.
YES
ONE HELL OF A WOMAN FULLLL OF LIFE!!!!!❤❤❤❤
We never missed her show at home. If we went to my grandparents' house we'd watch it there.
Every time she talks about her parents tragic meet with alcoholism i cry.
Man! What a great sport Carol was! :D
She was . Back then stars were so much more open about revealing personal issues.
