  • I couldn't believe that this classic Tim Conway performance wasn't on UA-cam, so I decided to add it. Tim plays a hapless gunnery soldier who struggles to place a heavy cannonball into the barrel of his cannon. This sketch originally aired on The Carol Burnett Show in the mid-1970's.

      This originally aired in 1970 on Season 4, Episode 17 of Carol Burnett and Friends. Your comment is from 44 years later, in 2014. To have been old enough to understand and appreciate the humor deeply enough to have tears running down your face, you likely would've had to be 12 years old, minimum, making you 65 or older at the time of your comment. A senior citizen posting that comment on UA-cam seems unlikely, at best.

    Tim Conway and Harvey Korman were brilliant together. This is 100 times funnier than anything on TV today. Now comedy writing mainly consists of crude sexual jokes that have no creativity or originality. How the show 2 Broke Girls is on the air is beyond me. It just goes to show how far entertainment has fallen.
