Sounds a little familiar but I'm not really sure. Are you really a TV buff?

Not only don't I remember the Carol Burnett Show, Ive never heard of it before! What years did it air?

******************************

Poor Drake - not only are you too young to have seen or heard of The Carol Burnett Show - I'll bet your Daddy and Mama are, too!

Some of our great friends have given you some leads on this, Drake, but here is a little additional info, for you:

*The Carol Burnett Show, which aired from 1967 to 1978, won 25 prime-time Emmy Awards.
*It was a "variety" show, featuring song and dance and monologues, but, predominantly, sketch-comedy.
*It was noted for the lead comedienne and comedians, cracking up at inopportune moments - especially during sketches featuring the incomparable Tim Conway.
*It was widely regarded as one of the greatest comedy-series of all time, and was one of the most successful.
*It featured lavish musical numbers,orchestrations, and costumes - and was particularly noted for its parodies of classic Hollywood motion-pictures.
*Its lead comedienne, Carol Burnett, is widely regarded as one of the greatest American comediennes of all time. Her career was recently profiled on PBS' "American Masters".

****************************************

All of us who grew up with Carol Burnett, have our favourite scene from the show. Here is one of mine - a parody of "Gone with the Wind."
