I love these old shows. They are way funnier than the shows that are out now.
By far!
Yes indeed
Truly
It depends!
Way funnier
Vicky Lawrence is the only actress who can never age out of her most famous role.
Oh, I don't know. Irene Ryan did pretty well at that, too. 🙂
That’s cause she married her make up artist.

@@stephenwoehr6500 So has Carol Channing, and she's dead.
Eunice's face when Mama said she wasn't a nun when she met her father was priceless. 😂😂😂
Eunice is a human emoji
@@ericrivera8410 lol true love Eunice 😂
Greasy hairspray!! lmao
Carol Burnett as Eunice is one of the funniest characters in the history of tv.
Don’t forget the part where Eunice slams her head on the icebox at 9:37! 😂😂😂
Such an accurate portrayal of a dysfunctional family. Everyone is unhappy with each other but also stops each other from leaving.
Lol misery loves company right... Even 40 years ago 🤣🤷
Very accurate portrayal. And if you really watch and listen, there is nothing funny about these videos. They are very sad, very lifelike.
@@tcpirish52 families were happier back then so dysfunction was "funny" now it's just the new normal for a lot more people.
A lot of people identified with this.
@@lorettajarrell500 ...How sad, if true...
Only Carol and Vicki can bring these two characters to life! Amazing.
Eunice hitting her head on the Refrigerator 😂😂💀This show is priceless!🏆
This show is a mess (smile)
that set me into convulsions.
I've slapped myself in the face I've been so upset...I've had family remember who have banged their heads against the wall
Eunice was so jealous that Mama had a rich boyfriend and a chance to go to NYC. Loved the way Ed spells failure, LOL.
I just love Eunice's facial expressions when she's angry!
She's a human emoji.
Carol Burnette is amazing!!!!!
@@ericrivera8410 lmao!
William Conrad was trying not to laugh
I actually thought I would be the only one here in 2020😂😂😂
Never! Great shows like this will always have huge fans.
@@jay1hi547 😉😊
Nope
I’m here , too !
One of my favorite shows.
“Eunice, for crying out loud. Wake up and smell the coffee!” 😂😂😂😂😂
Never knew that MAMA HARPER ever dated CANNON!! Children of the 70s such as myself will get it. LOL!!
Yes! Born in 1960 and remember William Conrad as Cannon.😄
Yep. Born in '74 here.
We thought it was "MOTHER HARPER"!!
@@atranfanatic l
@@suzannewetzel8561 I take it you were born in '74 as well?
This show never gets old!!! Love Carol Burnett!! 😘
I remember when her show first started, can't tell you the year but I recall My Mom and I sitting in front of the TV watching every week.
Agree
I used to enjoy watching this show with my mom. Way back in the days when families used to watch TV together...❤️
Same here, my mother said if she had a daughter like Eunice she'd drowned her.
Actually I miss shows like this, none of the so called comedies are really funny these days, if they are they are very few.
Agree
@@conniecarroll7222 exactly
It is a shame.
William Conrad another underrated actor. Loved him on Cannon and many movies!
Me and my mom used to watch cannon ❤❤
Vickie Lawrence began on this show as a teen. She must have known she was made for acting. She is majorly talented and a real study in how to perform... She is able to go from aging "Mama" to one of the dancers in heels and seductive costumes. She can play such a variety of characters. She has cut records and ended up in the top 10 with great singing talent as well. Her one woman show has been performed around the country as well. She is amazing.
Those expressions of Eunice are priceless!! 💜💜💜
Eunice is the only woman who can say Set Down with that skill. Ed knew to hit that chair !
Mama was a hoot. William Conrad was a terrific actor. I did not know he did comedy. This show was priceless.
He was pretty much the straight man, Carol and Vicki were so great at this sketch
Cannon
CANNON 😆
@@ericrivera8410And the original Marshal Dillon on radio.
I think famous actors wanted to be on this show.
Carol Burnett is a national treasure. These ‘family’ segments are some of the funniest, most brilliantly acted and timeless comedies ever done. At times they also have a definite undercurrent of pathos.
I imagine they hit home with a lot of people.
That dress should be in the Smithsonian
They originally tried it without the hillbilly accent and it was too sad
Sadly they’ll never be shows like this again . Brilliant❤️
Agree
I know 😢

Eunice cracks me up when she be looking at Ed when he laughs and when mama Beau smacks mama in the behind lol her look is priceless 😂 and then Everytime Ed get up she sit him down lol her look are priceless
When she barked sit down!..I knew it was gonna get real
Eunice and Mama seemed to switch roles here lol usually it's Mama criticizing Eunice's romance choices
Forty five years later and Vicki Lawrence can still play Mama and would still look like someone impersonating an old woman and she’s actually now older than Mama. Lol
And Carol can still do Eunice. Brings a smile to my face.
Can't wait to see Vicki in June!!!
Wow
@Little Bit HI, wouldn't that be a joy to see? Now that you mentioned it, I NEED to see that LOL LOL. Now I depend on Mike and Molly for laughter.
It really is too bad Carol wouldnt stay on Mama's Family after the second year. Eunice was such a great part of these sketches.
My grandmother and I used to love this show and laugh at it, because it reminded us of our own family ❤️😅
Same me and my grandma and the whole family would gather Friday nights around the TV set to watch the Carol Burnet show. Brings back such beautiful memories ❤❤❤
Who else is watching for relief from coronavirus hysteria?
Me, sort of.
This is great for laughs.
Me.....
Of course
Thomas Simmons 🖐
I love that Vicki Lawrence is in her EARLY 20s here... the talent that was brought out of her at such a tender age... Amazing. I applaud Carol for SEEING that spark in her at 17 yrs old!!! They're both simply genius! ❤❤
18yrs old to be exact. That was when they first met face to face at the miss fireball event and Carol Burnett was 14 months pregnant.
@@wilykat that's just amazing! Thank u for the info, I knew she was very young. I didn't know Carol was preg at the time, how funny! It was destined to be.... 🥀🌹❤️
@@ColleenDaumen2 Indeed it was. Out of Carol's own mouth she said that when she saw the newspaper clipping of Vicki, it was like looking at a younger version of herself.
@@wilykat14 months pregnant?
I thought she was 30???
The color and clarity of this tape is incredible!!
I didn’t realise until I read your comment. The color is amazing!
@@Nadia..J Maybe because of the lighting or the cameras.
manofmanyinterests Definitely not a DVD. The ones on tape hold up much better.
@@maryelizabeth6797 I agree. So many seem fuzzy, but this one looks like an oil painting come to life.
They offered The Carol Burnett Show on DVD a few years ago and I ordered it. I got a DVD set which they claimed was every episode it wasn't but at least I have a lot of them.
For the price I paid I didn't complain since it wasn't that bad compared to other sets I have.
Lmao 🤣😂🤣 the smack on the butt though!! Eunice's facial expressions!!😭😭😭
"This is a black day; a black day; I wish I'd never seen this day." I was in the floor!
What was Mama thinking? She should have gotten rid of Eunice and Ed before Willy showed up!
Cuz of the point of the show/premise. Their reactions are half the laughs. Besides, Eunice was right, Mama wasn't being her true self. And that can feel like a fuck you from a loved one, (for those who can relate know what I mean). Plus, what end result do you expect from "Mama's Family". Which is kind of the first thing I said.
Exactly. This one Eunice reslly made a fool out of hetself. She was jealous of Mama
Exactly Eunice was being totally unreasonable and selfish.
What was Eunice thinking? If Thelma and Willie got married, and Eunice was more nice to him he would've helped her out with her "show-biz career", maybe she would write her own play ( with herself starring in it) for that Pepperpot Playhouse!
Ikr ~ she should’ve known Eunice would throw a jealous fit 😂 ~ these crack me up so much but omg Eunice in real life would not have any friends ~ I saw one where her husband left her and it was kinda sad but I was like it’s about time cuz she treats him like crap 😂
Dang ! She said “ I wish I never brought you home from the hospital ! “ Only this show can make me laugh at that. Oh yeah and Eunice was just too jealous. 🤣
My mom didn't....she had a friend of hers bring me home😕😕😕
Hugs to you.@@slikster4life
Eunice started the whole thing!🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😅
Eunice ain't quite right
Seems like Eunicece was jeolous mama found a man with money and she's stuck with Ed wearing the same old dress
These people are wonderfully fabulous. The opposite of today's comedic actors and writers.
R J bullshit-but you’re correct about how good they are.
Amen. Hollyweird is on the decline from their sexual behaviour to the reality crap they call entertainment. Let's not forget their self congratulatory awards shows which are downright ridiculous and embarrassing.
I’d love to have a DVD set with all the Family sketch comedy routines from The Carol Burnett Show. They’re my favorites 👍
Perfect idea
Or a streaming service
You can find them
Eunice in the same dress, every episode.
Old funky looking dress.
Glad momma got a new one ... Guess Eunice would have to get a new man too in order to get a new dress 🤣🤣🤣
That's the beauty of Eunice
I think the only episode she wore something else in was the one where they were all getting ready to go to Aunt Mae's funeral. Eunice wore black in that one.
warp9p65 no, and the gong show she wore a really nice green sequence dress. She also bought herself a new swimsuit lol
I've never seen this one. Not sure where these are coming from but keep 'em coming please.
A lot of long lost sketches from The Family I bet this person just found them and decided to upload them to share. Most of these lost sketches are the first time my generation gets to see them!
This was one of the regular sketches from the Carol Burnett show that was airing back in the late 60's and 70's. I remember this one in particular with Eunice banging her head into the refrigerator screaming "Oh, this is a BLACK DAY, a BLACK DAY..."
"Did you know my dear, dead, daddy, Mr Foster." Ya gotta love the alliteration.
"My she's a...kinna a high-strung girl, innit she?" *understatement of the century* 💣
"Cant imagine who the hell she takes after."
It must be so hard not to come out of character especially during the refrigerator head banging scene 😂😂
That was hilarious
This is some of the funniest stuff that ever hit the TV screen! Vickie, Carol, Harvey and Tim made magic with this “family” theme. Hilarious!!! It’s not a wonder this became a sit-com. They don’t come funnier than Vickie Lawrence-Shultz. Wish Carol, Harvey and Tim would have permanently joined the cast on the TV series “Mama’s Family” when it first aired. The show would have ruled the airwaves into eternity!
OMG I just howled through this Family skit - they are all perfect for the characters they're playing, and they must have had the greatest writers alive!! How I wish the Carol Burnett Show was still on, we'd all have something to actually enjoy on tv!!
ME TV ITS STILL ON
Pretty sure Carol Burnett is the writer.
Poor Ed, he just wanted to watch his western. XD
"quit get'n that greasy hairspray all over my icebox!" 😆😂
Vicki Lawrence was pretty convincing as an old lady considering that she didn't have a line on her face. She was only about 25 here.
Genius
Oil of Olay and avoiding the sun. Some old ladies got it like that.
Yeah Vicki was hot....no doubt....
My pre teens actually love Mama's Family
Eunice makes me laugh so hard I fall out of the chair. The writing here is brilliant. Great acting. Classic gold.
"Imogene passed away, God bless her soul - I guess" - How I love Vicki and Carol in these roles! I actually watched "Mama's Family" for years when I was younger and never knew it all originated on Carol Burnett's show, why wasn't IT on reruns back then?
J is Scoobysmom same!
Now that would be great to have some of the old variety shows like The Carol Burnett Show on re-runs.
I have a list of several of my favorites I used to watch.
Hey Cablevision people, this is a great idea for a new channel.
Same here.
This show was on reruns at one time.
These skits and the Mrs. Wiggins skits are the best of the show. I wish they would put out a dvd set of just these. So much of the show was just so-so. These are the Honeymooners of this variety show.
I love Carol Burnett, Mamma's Family, Happy Days, 3's Company & Lavern & Shirley plus many many more.
Nothing beats the 70's for me. Best of everything.
Eunice’s headbanging 😂🤣😂
Bcerrty
"THIS IS A BLACK DAY, I WISH I NEVER SAW THIS DA--....."
"....QUIT gettin' that GREASY hairspray all over my icebox!"
Real comedy.
Did you notice that the sound effect was slightly off que on the last time Eunice struck her head against the fridge? It's noticeable if you watch it a few times.
@@warp9p659 I did
@@user-xr8co4oi8h Me too. I was watching carefully as I couldn't believe she would really bash her head hard enough to make that much noise! 😄
Too funny.
Mama and Eunice are essential the same person, each sketch shows a different side of it.
Eunice is Carol Burnett and Mama is Vicky Lawrence
That's Vickie Lawrence
Yeah, even that prostitute in "Cellmates" said it. She said that she thought they were the same person: "I won't love you unless you love me!" She also added, "Now don't you think it's about time you two grew up?"
Mama's Beau was played by William Conrad, who was one of the top radio actors ever. He starred in Gunsmoke for years and was on every show in the golden age of radio. Such a dynamic voice!
I first became familiar with him as Frank Cannon when I first started watching his other TV show "Cannon". Funny that I have been watching "Gunsmoke" from time to time and never noticed him. I just do not remember who he played on that show. I will be looking that up.
Eunice seemed jealous of mama in this one
CrazySexyCoolmeisha Oh she definitely was ! 🤣
I don't know why. Dude was big enough to break little Eunice in half without trying hard. But that's just Eunice I guess.
Ues she is very jealous
CrazySexyCoolmeisha funny I always thought she was jealous of having mama taken away from her. Like if mama left town or something Eunice would be all alone.
@@greenlee7smythe it's a shame people are not happy for other people. Just because she cannot go she doesn't want her either. She is miserable
Vicki and Carol are just so amazing. The chemistry off the charts. I loved watching this show as a kid on reruns…Still love it today.
It was the BEST when it was on Carol Burnett Show....lost all its "grit and realness" when it went to the sitcom Mama's Family. NOTHING like this awesome ensemble cast!!! Nothing can touch this greatness right here!!!!
Yes, Mama's Family was not up to the standard of these sketches, and I noticed right away in the first episode that Mama's voice was different in the series from what it was in these sketches. In Mama's Family she sounded more like a caricature than a character.
@@karlakor yeah her voice changed and her character changed....she became nice. I didnt stay with it.
The character was purposefully toned down at the suggestion of Korman to make mama less one-dimensional and more likeable since she was carrying the show.
And I’m guessing the voice change may have had to do with Lawrence herself. That screaming tone is one thing to do for 10 minutes once a week on a live show, but to use it for the amount of hours it took to shoot a weekly sitcoms? Just guessing, but I bet it hurt!
The skits on Carol Burnett were the best.
OMG 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I laughed so hard my jawline ache lol 🤦
Love Carol and the gang ❣️❤️ grew up on this laughed..
Laughter is good for the Soul 💖☺️
Too wonderfully funny!! Don't recall this one!!!
I don't either...thought i saw all the family sketches, but I missed this one!
No other show could make me laugh as much as carol Burnette could…. Or ever will 😂
Thank you for these great episodes! It is the middle of the Coronavirus / COVID-19 Pandemic. Watching these videos brings much needed brightness and laughter. I love this show!
I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at this! Hilarious but seriously TRUE! Families can be so dangerous!
I sure miss these family sketches. I often wonder who on the Carol Burnett show came up with the concept for these family sketches. The writers were pure genius.
Carol was raised by her grandmother and I think some of The Family dynamics are based on her mother and other relatives.
So priceless....watched this when i was 8 years old in 1964 i am 66 now.....it never gets old!😄
Show didn't start until 1967.
Thanks for sharing the o'l classics with us!!!!!👍
This is one of the wildest Eunice sketches ever!
I Love Carol Burnett and I Love Mommas Family it seems like every family has some relatives like this
Hello Laura, How are you doing?
I love every skit!There really is an underdog in every episode ya feel sorry for and it changes between Eunice, Ed, or Mama :)
Right. There is also a rotating antagonist. Many times it is mama or Ellen.
@@andos2923 I think this was one of the few times I sided with Mama lol Mama was in the role Eunice is usually in in this sketch and Eunice was acting more like Mama usually acts
Who ever thought of these characters was genius Eunice, momma, and Ed are very well played bravo 👏 so funny. Their voices, facial expressions, the ward robe all good 👍, love to watch them!! 😂
My mom and I used to watch the Carol Burnett show every Saturday night. Mama's family skits were our favorite. The talent was unreal. Those were the days. I miss those days and I miss my mother. What a masterpiece of down home Americana.....
Thank you!! Keep 'em coming. Eunice bashing her head against the fridge, what a funny moment.
Mama: "Quit getting that greasy hairspray on my icebox".
@@AstralPixie 😄
I said to myself, "Oh, Eunice is a crazy bI*H#!" LOL
When I first saw this sketch I felt sorry for Mama when Willie walked out on her, but when she was counting the cash and smirking, I thought, "nah, she'll be totally fine".
She doesn't like it taking things too seriously. 😅
Hilarious and yet painful.
The Carol Burnett Show and The Family skits never get old, always laugh out loud funny, Mama's Family TV shows, too!! :-)
They don’t make these great shows any more. Can’t get enough of this show
One of my favorite episodes - makes you wonder how it would have gone had the beau become a regular in Mama's life. Entertaining and FUNNY.
They make me laugh! 😀
It was so well written and performed. I saw Carol on Broadway in "Moon Over Buffalo". I saw her at Carnegie Hall for a tribute to her. Vicki, Tim and Lyle were all there! She did her Tarzan yell and it echoed throughout the Hall. Other stars were there too.
I saw Maggie on Broadway in "Lettice and Loveage". It was quite funny and well enacted.
Such happy memories of seeing them all and watched them with my Mom on television! 😀😁😁🌟
I love being able to enjoy both the dark edge of the sketches and the comfort-tv of the tv series. I love them both
Eunice face priceless
Hello Penny, How are you doing?
Carol, Harvey and Vicky are also amazing actors, as usual! It's good to see special guest star, William Conrad (Cannon, Gunsmoke - TV Shows), doing this small bit. Great actor as well! Thank you for sharing!
I wasn’t a nun! Wake up and smell the coffee!
I'm only 41, so, this was before my time, but, 2 of THE FUNNIEST WOMEN ON TV EVER, WAS CAROL BURNETT & VICKI LAWRENCE. THE SKIT WHEN THEY'RE PLAYING SORRY IS MY FAVORITE. LOL. WHEN CAROL MAKES THE FACE & HER VOICE GETS LOWER ALWAYS CRACKS ME UP!!
I don't think Eunice owns any other Dresses
ME EITHER.
THAT'S ALL SHE EVERY WEAR.
MAYBE SHE BOUGHT MORE THAN ONE DRESS.
AT LEAST ED DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT BUYING HER CLOTHES.
LOL.
Ed seemed to wear that same tan double breasted suit everyday too. He even had it on when he was on Mama's Family.
Yeah. It's a costume. Like Charlie Brown's striped shirt.
she got a black one for funerals..lol
Lol I noticed that too she only has different dresses ever year that passes 😂
William Conrad was great , love this one
No smut, no foul language, just good old humor! they don’t make them like they used to!
" Well I should have never brought you home from the hospital." LOL!!
I absolutely LOVE Eunice!! She is just hilariously funny!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Carol Burnett, the best comedy of all time!!!
I LOVE Cannon. William Conrad was extremely talented very good video glad to watch good clean funny shows
"Wake up and SMELL the coffee!" Best tv one-liner ever!
I'll never forget carol Burnett's show's I love everyone one of them much ❤️
I always loved these family skits that they would do. Looked forward to them.
I’ve been binge watching a bunch of these. They’re hilarious!!
One of the hardest lessons to learn is that your mom never loved you. I feel Eunice's pain 1000%.
It is very hard to know your mother never ever said she loved you….
It also depends on your definition of love. I was raised carefully out of a sense of duty; every box was checked and double checked. As for love....
@@jonwiley5549 I don’t know how to reply because I think having kids and doing your duty doesn’t equate to wanting them and letting them know how important they are to you. Kids know emotion even though you think they don’t. They sense things. So i just told my kids “I love you”. Do you tell your kids “I love you”. My kids weren’t a duty to me.
Same.
someone has to, even if just for an afternoon, so you will know what it's like for you to even survive. I was so touch-deprived I used to go to the Greyhound bus station to watch people hug and wonder what it felt like. Used to love a bad sunburn cuz it was warm.
@@romachabot2078
They remade this in season 1 of Mama's Family lol. So funny! William Conrad was the actor in that private detective show "Cannon" I believe.
He was also Matt Dillon on the radio version of Gun Smoke and the announcer on The Rocky And Bullwinkle Show where he's credited as Bill Conrad
Boop boop dittem dattem wattem choo! Don’t you know any other song??? Lololol
I watched cannon as a kid. He also voiced the opening of Buck Rogers.
he also was in Jake and the Fatman
@@PunkRockDiva1979 that's who i was thinking of.
Thanks so much for posting this!! Favorite part for me was when Ed spelled F-A-Y-L-U-R on his forehead, hahaha!!
YES 😂😭
William Conrad had that great voice. Was great in Cannon. Shows a big man can make a great impression.
Never saw this episode before. Thought I'd seen all of them. This is Great!
One thing is certain, they got their moneys worth out of the dress Eunice wears.
A total $13.75
And her wig, too
Donna Brasher - probably several dresses exactly the same- lol
First time I ever saw Mama in a different dress. I love her purple outfit.
And shoes! lol
My dad loved these shows, he was without his kids while they were growing up. It gave him a look at the future of a dysfunctional family(i think) of yet to come. .... It gave him a laugh (Thank God) Clever people saw this coming, that is all I can say! I can definitely laugh now! People really think that all families are not dysfunctional, sorry dad we are all dysfunctional in one way or another. Love you dad!!! I always did and always will!!! Just knowing my dad just watching these shows could give me a laugh from the grave now! Wow!! To all of our fathers who could really makes us laugh!😂❤
I just love these shows much better than anything on these days 😂
I always love Mama's Family what's a great show👍👍🤘🤩🥰🧡💛💝💖
love MAMA'S FAMILY. watch reruns of it on ME TV in NY. it was on 6 years and I never get tired of seeing it. it brightens my day. TY for posting The Family from the Carol Burnett Show. She is on ME TV too every nite.
