The Carol Burnett Show
The Carol Burnett Show was a comedy television show starring Carol Burnett, Tim Conway, Harvey Korman, Vicki Lawrence, and Lyle Wagner. The popular variety show made the stars household names with such hilarious sketches as "Went with the Wind," "Computer Date," and "Stella Toddler." With such famous guest stars as Roddy McDowell, Dinah Shore, the Jackson 5, Shirley MacLaine, Lily Tomlin (and many more) appearing weekly to bring entertainment into the livingrooms of Americans all over the country, the 11 year running show was nominated for many Emmys and won quite a few.
Miss Burnett went on to star in movies, write a Broadway play, and continues to make appearances. Conway and Korman travel to do comedy routines all of the country. Vicki Lawrence made a golden hit record in 1973 and went on to host her own shows ("Vicki" and the popular "Mama's Family") for a few years and runs around America doing comedy sketches of her own. The cast has just recently re-released their seasons, which are now available on VHS and DVD.
