Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
Alicia I love this movie so much
Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
O2D I don't understand how anyone could ever enjoy this show.I watched eleven episodes and only laughed once.It's hard to know for sure but it seems like they parody a lot of very old movies that no one under fifty would have ever seen.Maybe if I was sixty or seventy years old I would get more of the references.It blows my mind to hear that people consider this a great show.I guess half a century ago people would laugh at anything.This is definitely a show that you should avoid.
amexspam This is a show that I remember as a 10, but when reviewed 30 years later is a 7 with occasional eights. If you erase the nostalgia and purely focus on the writing it is a 6, but the brilliance of the performers raises it to a 7 and sometimes an 8 - Tim Conway and Carol are always at a nine level. I watched it every Saturday, but it was the best of what was on and not an 8.8 by itself. If you are rating by memory and not by today, get copies of back programs and see if your opinions hold, If you've never seen it, it is definitely worth watching to see some extraordinary characters, but it is not an 8.8. Apparently the line police needs more. How about...Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could to where it bent in the undergrowth;
DKosty123 Carol Burnett was a staple on CBS from 1967 until it left a significant mark upon all those fans who watched it. This show was always funny, very imaginative, and did some of the wildest things that could be done in the variety format but at a pace that was not as frantic as Rowan & Martins Laugh-In. This is a good thing.Carol has a great talent which really showed when she would often come out & take questions from her live studio audience. While the show was taped, it was done at CBS studios in front of a live audience much the same as Red Skelton did for many years in California. While Carol was always the star, she never minded sharing the air with some fantastic support.The now late Harvey Korman, one of the great second bananas in comedy history whose memory now has a spot for all of us. Tim Conway whose antics made Korman laugh, and who is one of the last of a line of great physical comedians with an off-beat sense of humor & timing. Vicki Lawrence, Carols alter ego on this show and often the seemingly straight female while Lyle Waggoner seems to be the male that fit this role.As the show went along, Vicki learned more about doing comedy. Lyle went on to play opposite Wonder Woman. In a way, while Gleason created one sketch with this format which became "The Honeymooners", Carols crew did the same with "Mamas Family" which still runs a lot in syndication. I am hoping the DVD folks can get some of these seasons of Carol intact on DVD's soon as there were some great shows. Shows like this one, may never come this way to pass again.We just have share a laugh or two, because the more you know it, this show has had to end too soon.
sneezewhiz The Carol Burnette Show was the last in a long line of variety shows that stretched back into radio and even vaudeville days. The focus was on skit comedy, but if the guest was a singer or musician, they would usually get a chance to show their chops doing what they were good at. I was 23 when Carol Burnette went off the air in 1978 and I was conscious that this was the sunset of a genre of entertainment that had been in my awareness from earliest memory. When Carol Burnette premiered in the fall of 1967, she shared the prime-time network schedule with programs such as Hollywood Palace, The Danny Thomas Hour, Red Skelton, Jerry Lewis, The Kraft Music Hall, Dean Martin, Lawrence Welk, Jackie Gleason, The Ed Sullivan Show and the Smothers Brothers. Some of these shows dated back to the earliest days of television with hosts and performers some of whom dated back to radio and even vaudeville days. When Carol Burnette ended in 1978, it was over. Prime-time entertainment was skewed to an 18-35 demographic (which was me!) and the schedule was dominated by vapid sitcoms and prime-time soaps. You can count the shows worth remembering on one hand. The thing thing about variety and skit comedy shows was that you did not need a long attention span. You could tune into the program at any point and something fresh would start within moments. NBC's Saturday Night Live is one such show that still survives, but it's on at late-night. It would be history if it were aired at any other time, and a short history at that. It's too bad, because variety TV was fun TV and everyone in the family could enjoy it.
