Carol Burnett is one of the funniest people I have ever had the privilege to watch on television. Carol, along with Tim Conway, Vicki Lawrence and Harvey Korman, gave me some of my hardest laughs and I still to this day love to watch the re-runs of the show whenever I have the opportunity. Here are ten times Carol, Vicki, Harvey and Tim proved to be four of the funniest people on the earth.
1. Mama's smart remarks to Eunice.
Mama made me laugh until my sides hurt in every single episode. She always had something smart to say to Eunice.
2. "Went with the Wind."
When Carol came around the corner and descended the stairs with that curtain rod across her shoulders, there is not anyone I know that would have been able to keep a straight face.
3. The conjoined elephant story.
"Well you see, one time I was at this freak show one time. And there were these two conjoined elephants. Oh, and there was this little monkey that went out there and danced the meringue. I felt so sorry for those elephants. They couldn't make normal elephants sounds all they could do was say Fnork."
4. When Carol flashed "Peeping Tim" with fake props.
5. Harvey Korman in drag.
6. Harvey Korman and Tim Conway's constant battle to get each other to crack up.
7. The Wiggins' Walk.
If you've watched the show, you have attempted the Wiggins' walk.
8. When Tim used that ridiculous accent on Harvey.
9. The Dentist Episode.
10. The Tarzan yell.
Carol, I would give anything to do this. Trust me, I've tried countless times.
Thank you Vicki, Carol, Harvey and Tim for making me laugh no matter what. You are the four funniest people on the planet and it was an honor to watch your for all those years. We love you all.
