- A Friend of mine from Belgrade sent me this video (thank you serbian ptt) and asked me to upload it, since his account is limited to 15 minutes length only. Carol Burnett is not hard to describe- a career of 60 years, incredible talent, voice, diverse acting skills - made her one of the icons of theatre, Broadway, musicals, TV , movies STAR!!! We wish her long life and may she entertain us more! Matija, Zrenjanin,SER
Carol Burnett is a national treasure.
Miss her!
@@annetteedel8110 she's still here. Tomorrow is actually her birthday. 89.
She is the absolute best! I know that if she doesn't outlive me that I will cry so much. Besides being so talented, she is such a great lady, too!
Amen to that.
Qyour the best carol
I grew up with my grandma and mother and sister. I was the boy the youngest. The grandson, son, brother. And it was the sixties/seventies. And the four of us would sit at my grandmas house every Saturday night and hang out with Carol and eat snacks, leftovers, etc. and just laugh and forget how poor we were and the war she was just a friend that would help us enjoy ourselves together. I love what she meant to our families, our country our lives. She was meant to do this. Thank You, thank you, thank you! Love always, Always love, forever.❤💃❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥😉👼
I have been very fortunate enough to be able to say I have not only met Carol Burnett but to be able to have a couple of minutes just to talk with her. I lived in an apartment building in Vancouver where they were shooting some production there. I walked out of my flat and literally ran into her. Just her and I. Not only was she so nice whilst I was star struct fumbling my words but she put me at ease by thanking me for letting them film there(had 0 input). She was so lovely and nice. I will always cherish and appreciate my two minutes getting to talk to her in that hallway. ❤
Carol Burnett is an icon..comedian, actress, lady! Mrs-uh Wiggins, the Gone With the Wind sketch “I saw it in the window and just had to have it”, As the stomach turns”, her Tarzan imitation..These were the good ole days I remember watching her variety show! Nothing ever like it again (sigh)
….
I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL...WATCHING CAROL BURNETT WAS MY RELIGION!! THE CURTAIN ROD SKETCH!! 50 YEARS LATER...I STILL LAUGH MY ASS OFF!!
I feel sorry for all the people who never were blessed to watch her shows...What a wonderful woman!
I never tire of re-watching. Wonderful stuff!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I grew up watching her with my parents. Amazing lady!
Full episodes available for free on CZcams
I agree❤
The "Gone With the Wind" sketch was absolute genius. No matter how many times I see it, I still laugh.
well lets face it, if you were going to make a dress out of curtians, it would look more like Carol's version then the one from the movie.
I heard Bob Mackie, their incredibly creative costume designer, thought of leaving the rod in. He made Mrs. Wiggins' skirt in a way that she could only walk that way. He's the one who made all the costumes especially great.

My favorite
The Carol Burnett Show is one of the fondest memories I have from my childhood. My parents never missed an episode and it was a show that the entire family loved. Thanks, Carol.
Us too
My Sister and I would fall on the floor laughing watching The Eunice Skits and then when she did a Parody of The Bette Davis Movies where she plays Twins.
Mandy patinkin take me out to the ballgame

I'm a 29 year old crazy carol burnett show addict. The shows comedy is timeless.
absolutely
I realize you commented 2 years ago about Carol Burnett, but have you seen Tracy Ullman? I think she's cut from the same cloth.
They need to bring her show back on TV like at 8 o’clock in the evening or even 7 o’clock on one of the nationals channels. She is wonderful.
I grew up on The Carol Burnett Show love this lady. I think she's underappreciated and underrated.
I got to see the Gone With the Wind/curtain rod skit when it first aired. I have never ever laughed so hard in my life. That was pure magic and such a wonderful memory; Thank you Carol!
K ok Kiki see id dad dear happy dear to my family dd
One of my all time favorites! I had just been thinking about it when I came across this video!
Went with the Wind. I bought a Barbie made of that character.
I laugh just thinking about the curtain rod.
Looking back I missed the comedy of the curtain dress other than she looked like a samauri soldier. I had shirts and quilts made of old curtains and flour sacks so that passed as normal to me. cloth sacks were washed and taken apart and patterns pinned and cut out for smaller projects. dish rags and napkins. we recycled tin cans for replacement of water glasses broken by two towheaded boys. Tin cans did survive our growing up years. Carol could relate.
This elderly gentleman lives in the same condo as myself. He was a limo driver some years back and he said Carol was the nicest person he had ever met. She also tipped him twice. He also drove the limo for other famous people and I will not mention how they behaved.
Carol Burnett is a gift to humanity.
well said
She is truly a MASTER.
+Rosario Cardona I do not believe there's another Gal with the gift she gave all of America.
How grateful I am to have experienced her particular wit, charm and character.
Carol-WHAT A GAL!

What an inspiration to human kindness and fortitude. Many memories watching with the family that are not here now. Happy times.
She is an angel! There will never be another Carol
and she is absolutely gorgeous.
If you read Julie Andrew's autobiography you realise both she and Carol grew up in the same circumstances. Julie's mother became an alcholic because her step-father was, and eventually her mother followed. The man she grew up calling Daddy she found out was not her father. Singing as a teenager at some private party a man talked to her and later on Julie found out from her mother he was her father. While doing "My Fair Lady" in London this man appeared and made it known a relationship could be established. Julie felt this guy was trying to take away what was due her Daddy and nothing else happened. In no way did Julie Andrews' come from a high class background. I think this brought both of them together!
I have nothing but love and respect for this woman. She always made me laugh when I needed to.
glad i was an 80s baby to catch these reruns 🥰🥰🥰
When she had the girl come up and sing “Shy” with her - 😭🥰😭🥰😭😍
So gorgeous.. and classy.. and real. A national treasure.
Though I was a kid in the '80s, I had very good parents. They raised me on Carol Burnett, the Muppet Show, The Smothers Brothers, and all that wonderful comedy we used to make in America. So this excellence, though I missed 30 years of it before I was born, is very meaningful to me.
If only everyone was as classy, generous, kind hearted as this beautiful woman. What a wonderful world it would be 💞
Great cast too, who all had as good a time as Carol. Harvey Korman, Tim Conway, Vicki Lawrence and Lyle Wagoner had a ball and Carol kept them guessing, and improvising like Gary Moore did to her. They were all comedic gold.
She is a gift to us. Carol we need your humor, your kindness today. Blessings to you.
what a respectable human being. kind. generous. LEGEND.
The one thing I can say about Carol Burnett is she was visibly kind and human in a time when the world needed to see that. Without her show and her contagious nature unknowingly schooling the viewer and showing us the world would be a better place by wearing your heart on your sleeve and showing your feelings, letting them bleed through the mask you wear. She performs in such a way you see the character she wants you to see but you also somehow see in her eyes how she truly feels about the created person and what they are doing. If she is portraying someone mean spirated there is a regret underlying it somehow. She's Amazing! I just loved her in Annie!
Comment well stated. You have alot of insight. Thank-you
Carol worked with Lucy, that's where she go a lot of her timing. Lucy also died on Carol's birthday, but not before she ordered flowers for Carol
The note said “Happy birthday, kid. Love, Lucy”
My family has always LOVED Carol Burnett! She could make the kids laugh, the parents laugh, the grandparents laugh, as well as all the aunts, uncles, and cousins! Thank you Carol for all of the good times, laughs, and memories you have given to us all! My family have gone now but I still get to see you on Hallmark's Signed, Sealed, and Delivered popular show! THANK YOU!!!
Hello Lynda
How are you doing today?
Carol Burnett - the funniest female comedian of all time and yes, funnier than the other redhead
Hello Linda
How are you doing today?
I'm surprised 'the other redhead' didn't seem to make the cut in 1 hour,, 23 minutes, and 55 seconds of Carol's Story ?
They so beautifully covered SO MUCH that I was unaware of . . .
would this have become too deep a rabbit hole to venture the mention of ?
Seeing Harvey, Lyle, Tim honestly almost had me in tears I love carol Burnett she’s ballsy but humble ah carol and Harvey were the best on screen couple
Ms. Burnett's saving me in the quarantine. I am totally in love with her. Thanks, CZcams. Glad to know she will entertain people forever. Ms. Burnett, u r the greatest! I thank you with all my heart.
Dear
YOU MADE ❤ MILLIONS OF PEOPLE BELLY LAUGH 😃 😀 😄 AND HAVE A GREAT TIME. YOU LIBERATED ❤ WOMEN WITH YOUR HUMOR.
YOU WERE BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT MS. BARNETT.
THANK YOU. SO MANY GENERATIONS LAUGH.
we need more shows like that!!
Saturday nights as a kid was family night watching The Carol Burnett Show. Mom would treat us to either Jeno's pizza or popcorn and soda as part of the once in a lifetime experience. I am so glad we had those times together.
...just to have a laugh or sing a song.
Harvey Korman was in the jewelry shop I worked in at the old Sheraton in Ka'anapali, circa 1986 -87. He said something very funny to me about how he was relieved we had closed for an hour for lunch, because of his wife wanting to shop, or something. The manner in which he said it was naturally silly and I just laughed... when he left I realized who he was.
I JUST FOUND THIS...ONE OF THE BEST TRIBUTES TO A WONDERFUL PERFORMER AND A WONDERFUL PERSON...HARD TO FIND TODAY...I AM 82 AND REMEMBER NEVER MISSING HER SHOW ON SATURDAY NIGHTS...WE WILL NEVER SEE ANYTHING LIKE THAT WEEKLY SHOW AGAIN...SAD...SAD....SAD...GOD BLESS CAROL BURNETT....
Carol has a beautiful voice just like her heart
I gifted myself tonight with Carol Burnett❤️
She & Danny Kaye are my all time favorites.
A genius entertainer!~ One of America's greatest assets.
She was one of us!
Goddam. She has gifted mankind more than any President, Prime Minister or Pontiff than the world has ever seen. Thank you.
Always a Class Act, always funny. Carol Burnett was born funny and later, so far beyond funny.
American Royalty
Philippines here. My mom and I, love Carol Burnette Show.
SHE WAS A GENIUS
She IS a genius♥️🧸🎶⚘
I was little and I remember waiting with baited breath every week for the Carol Burnett Show. My family stopped everything we were doing and hung on every laugh. It's cool then next day we would talk about everything we saw on The Carol Burnett Show and our favorite characters.
Very attractive, funny, a genuine heart of gold.....a real star is born. She always makes me smile.
I forgot how well she can sing! Such a natural talent!
Carol Burnett is the best
Carol is one of the most talented comidians. I love her . Thank you for sharing your talent and entertaining us so beautifully .
Hello Hannah
How are you doing today?
God! I love Carol Burnett! One of a kind!
I still watch a lot of re runs!!❤
My family LOVED her! I wanted to BE her and I channeled her in my most significant character in our High School's play! What a gift she is!
Hello Lynda
How are you doing today?
So sad that this generation is passing. Our beautiful Betty's has died a wonderful friend of Carrol Burnett. Each so Great In their own Right. There's nothing else to say Thanks You for your talents and cry as we have cried for Betty White departure 😭.
The absolute best!!!!
she IS the funniest lady ever
That show was absolutely one of a kind, that captured lightning in a bottle.
It would be nigh impossible to recreate the chemistry, and shear brilliance of Tim and Carol. As much as I liked Harvey, Vicky, and Lyle. Had it not been for the brilliance of Carol ...
[her show obviously]
and Tim Conways improvisational skills, the other 3 actors wouldn't be as recognizable as they are/were
Heart of gold
I love you Carol! Thank you doesn’t even begin to cover it. 💗
REAL beauty and talent and charm....don't see that anywhere anymore...Love You Carol
One of the most memorable elements of the Carol Burnett show and it's comedy sketches was how many times the actors (especially Harvey Korman) tried, often failed, to suppress their laughter. Carol often had to bite her nails or chew her lip to keep from cracking, but the audience felt it. So it became obvious they were really having fun, which made it all the more honest and endearing. It's raw talent and heartfelt delivery of entertainment, which is pretty rare these days. Thank you Carol and your troupe for all that sheer joy.
Well said!
Carol has à human connection. She shared her heart and soul one hundred percent. This was before the age of the cell phone. There are hood and bad with the cell phones. My family watched Carol bring love and humor into her home. She was the best and gracious and down to earth. Tim and allhsrvey were great. She always you laugh.
Hello Eileen
How are you doing today?
She made my childhood!
Hello Dear
How are you doing today?
Much appreciation for these stories of realness from great actors; great people.
There will never be another show like The Carol Burnett Show, my all time favorite #1 Show
One of my most important role models
She is a thoroughly decent, kind, generous, down-to-earth human being. She embodies the best of America.
@@williamsstephens Sadly, forgotten America. Us “boomers” had something that will never come back.
I love her 🥰
Hello Kathleen
How are you doing today?
27.57 :
"Went With the Wind"
was SO funny.
Being in England,
I hadn't seen any
of Carol's shows,
and found it by chance
here on CZcams,
only a few years
ago.
"Went With The Wind"
is still one of
her best.
The curtains
as a dress !
"I saw it in the
window and
couldn't resist it!"
Genius idea by the
costume designer.
Wonderful shows.
🇬🇧💕🇺🇲⭐😊💕
The genius of the one and only Bob Mackie♥️🧸🎶⚘
I spent a lot of time with my grandparents. I was so lucky. My grandma was an Angel, thanks god. Grandpa was so fun and so good to me.
We have no entertainment now like Carol!
Hello Sharon
How are you doing today?
I cried when in 1978!she gave her last show then go sit and sing her song in earnest when she sang her theme song. I"I m So Glad We HD This Time Together" best of all I still cry when I hear her sing that song. It hit me very hard...She is an Icon to be remembered for her kindness,gentleness and beauty. I admired her for her versatility in acting Eunice then the mop lady then further her joy in presenting her show guests honor and true wonderful character . She shined like an angel in the dark. When I was asked to play on stage I had watched her so closely on the floor in my folk s house how she portrayed the cleaning lady, I grabbed my mom s pail and mop and acted like her. My mom cracked up and hysterically began to laugh. I was asked then to act in those kind of parts on stage by my directors. In eighth grade because of her acting skills she showed me was given a standing ovation and this carried me to act on stage on the Paramount Theater by my High school Drama teacher who was our Playwright and produced for the first year of "The Ziegfeld Follies". We had 3 ovations given us by our generous audiences.There was curtain call and as the stage manager had just closed it there was a thunder of whistles and loud noises coming from my three children plus my husband. We actors thought we were done ,but more clapping and hooping and hollering came over our stage one more curtain call then followed by another and they were still standing when the curtain descended to the front stage door We had people surprising us back stage.I ll never forget that my teachers plus WMT Radio that were in the audience and cast were all over our production. I found they filmed us as the stars.Ehat an honor they bestowed upon us! 😭😂😘😀❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank to you UTUBE I was able to relive my childhood days!
@@shirleyfunte3063 so glad I had the foresight not to have kids. The world sure has changed for the worst since that last show in 1978 which I recall that final episode
Carol Burnett is the best n top comedy lady there is
I found CB Show in lockdown. I have never laughed so much, ever, in 70 years. True Comic Genius.
I love you Carol Burnett❤️
For eleven years the Carol Burnett Show was required viewing in our household. From day one, to it's final airing, Ms Burnett's variety show was NEVER a wasted hour! We followed it from Mondays, to Wednesdays, to Saturdays, to Friday. There's a reason Carol Burnett is a legend---She was BRILLIANT!
We never tire of this special lady. 30 years of her career has been looking back. Very unique
I really enjoyed watching this. Carol Burnett has always been, and still is, one of my favorite people. Her television shows were great. Great entertainment!
Carol Bernet is great, she and I Love Lucy are TWO Crazy RED HEAD'S I've Watched Them For Years and The Reruns are to Die For, With Shows You Laugh Outloud At.
Absolutely
Love that lady!!!! She keeps me in stitches.
Well always love and remember Carol!♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I remember watching her first show with my passerby. We never missed an episode from that moment to the last. Amazing woman!
I never heard anyone say a bad word about Carol and that's saying something.
Yay!!!! finally the full show Thanks
thank you
You're welcome it's going to be shown again on February 23rd on PBS
Besides being a supremely talented woman in so many areas,she seems like a really cool likeable lady. True class act.
Didn't know it, just found out it's Carol's birthday today. Happy Birthday Carol! Thank You for all the laughs!
Carol was/is a brilliant performer and while her show originally aired, I was doing things other than watch TV, but years later on CZcams, I discovered just how varied and unique her humor was. Speaking of myself, my own familial background reassembled hers, except mine was even sadder. It has been a long journey for me and a worthwhile one, mostly centered around forgiveness and forgiving myself, along with a dollop of gratitude.
I LOVED her take on Maude. BROAD was HILARIOUS!!!!
She IS A National Treasure & Will Always Be Remembered As Such, So Dear
if you couldn't already see how amazing she is, it's apparent in how fondly everyone around her speaks of her, in such high regards
Carol is a comedic genius.
Love the Carol Burnett show!
I need to send her a personal message about how she changed my life and acceptance of who I am as a person. I've never accepted what I see in the mirror however she did change that. So much love for her and Lucy
Yes Lucy and Carol are the BEST. They were best friends, too.
We love Carol Burnett!! Our son gave us a full set of her DVD VIDS.
Her gowns were the most stunning I’ve seen on any show. Bob Mackie is brilliant. But he had Carol with the perfect body to dress. Classy lady.
I do believe that humor is our sixth sense and is for Our good. We all love and need more of Carol Burnett. Wouldn't it be great to have more great, clean, respectful, family comedy like that again? More so now than ever before. ❤ Love always, Always love, forever.❤ 💃👼❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥😉
Carol Burnett, and I have the same birthday how cool in that.
Lucille Ball always called Carol "kid" and sent her flowers on every birthday. Lucille died on the day of Carol's birthday and she still received flowers.
I remember watching the broom and bucket with my Great Grand Parents
No one like her, and never will be. She is the best of he best!
what a huge part of my life this woman was... golden. brilliant. everything.
Very funny and really talented!
Hello Mary
How are you doing today?
I pray i can be like Carol. Acting is my dream
An American treasure and the funniest comedian of all time. Kind, generous, wholesome humor that will never go out of fashion.
I always wanted Carol Burnett to be my sister! My family never did ! And never will have sense of humor ! The older I get the funnnier people are to me !!!! Especially my 9 brothers and sisters !!
