  • While she isn't necessarily a superstitious person, Carol Burnett did consider Jim Nabors to be her personal "good luck charm" that she would employ at the beginning of each season of her long running TV show. Why was Jim Nabors so special to her? Check out this video to learn more!

    When I was young, Mom and I had gone to the local Giant Grocery store to buy some groceries.
    It was Christmas time. They had a stand with a variety of Christmas music on cassette tapes.
    It had one in particular that featured different singers on popular songs.
    I asked Mom to get it. She agreed.
    As we were preparing dinner we played the tape.
    When it got to O Holy Night, I heard this rich, deep, and melodious voice singing. I was mesmerized.
    I asked Mom "Who is that singing?"
    Mom was suitably amazed that I did not recognize that voice. She replied "Why that's Jim Nabors, Michael!"
    It was my turn to be amazed! You mean "Golly?!"
    Since then, I have heard, and thoroughly enjoyed listening, to Jim Nabors. What a great guy!

    WE used to watch the Carol Burnett show every saturday night when I was a kid. It was clean, entertaining, and, most of all, funny. Back then entertainers weren't obsessed with telling their fans how they should vote. At the time I didn't get all the movie parodies because I had not seen the films. Now that I have seen many of the movies, those parodies are even funnier. And television doesn't get much funnier than Harvey Korman and Tim Conway together in a skit.They show the Carol Burnett show on metv, but it's the ones they chopped up into 30 minute segments. If you're a fan, get the dvd's so you can see the whole show the way it was meant to be seen.
    Jim Nabors, from everything I've read and seen about him, was just a good, decent guy. He ruined the chances of his own variety show because he refused to fire Frank Sutton when the network demanded it. Ronnie Schell (Duke Slater) referred to Nabors as one of his best friends. The two of them became close on the Gomer Pyle show and remained that way for the rest of Jim's life. Ronnie even got married at Nabor's mansion.
    Now for Gomer Pyle. I miss the days when a show could be clean and funny and not aimed at children. The whole family could watch Gomer Pyle. I miss the age when writers had to leap over the hurdle of not writing anything sexual or offensive. But they did it. People should check out old shows like Gomer Pyle, Car 54 where are you, and SGT. Bilko, not to mention Andy Griffith ( yes, even the color ones), and many more. People may like the Walking Dead, but give me some Gomer Pyle to put a little joy in my day. Jim Nabors and Frank Sutton were one of the great comedy teams of television, and it's a shame Sutton didn't live longer.

      Joe, "WE" is the perfect descriptor. The Carol Burnett show was a family event. Watching the show with mom and dad, my sister, and myself. The true humor, talent, and music were the standard for all variety shows. The pre-SNL product commercial parodies were completely original. As for Jim Nabors, his loyalty to Frank Sutton, at the expense of his own success... the siģn of a real friend. Jim, being so talented, playing the exact opposite character type - now that's acting. Oh, a legendary singing voice, too.

    Jim Nabors was a unique and exceptional talent. The Gomer character was exceptional and I will never forget the episode where Gomer had to fight the bully. Variety shows were an amazing format and sorely missed. The Carol Burnett 'Family' series was one of the most intense examples of comedy and pathos. Carol gave Jim a spot on one of the episodes..

    The Carol Burnett Show is still one of the best comedy shows ever. I was so lucky to have it on Friday nights during childhood. Carol, Vicky, all the great guest but Harvey and Tim were the guys. 40 years later those sketches are still hilarious! I'll never forget bawling when on the last episode she sang, " I'm So Glad We Had This Time Together" for the final time - I still get choked up a little. The folks on thatcshow were/are all fine people! :)

    Of course I loved The Carol Burnett Show. What an amazing ensemble of talent with flawless chemistry between them; clearly one big, happy family. If there was an ego among them, it never showed.
    Tim Conway could have done silent films; the things that he could do, the comedy he could achieve, with nothing more than facial expressions and body language was easily as good as anything Buster Keaton ever did...and Keton was _the_ master. Nobody -- and I mean _nobody_ -- could milk the lead-in to a joke like Conway could. Getting to the punchline was often the funniest part of his routines. Every pause was more hysterical than the previous one.

    Carol Burnett was and still is an amazing entertainer and person. It is so nice to hear about genuine Hollywood friendships that stand the test of time. Jim Nabors was great in everything he did and always came across as a really nice man(Shazam!", "Golly!", "Sur-prise, sur-prise, sur-prise!", "shame, shame, shame!").As far as Lyle Wagoner my favorite role of his was when he was on the Golden Girls with Sonny Bono. MY favorite Carol Burnett was the Gone With the Wind sketch-all of these years later that skit makes me laugh until I have tears in my eyes. Once again Mr. Sundstrom-thanks for the memories!

Her response to audience questions was just as we saw it on her show. Jim Nabors and Harvey Korman were gay and I admire Carol Burnett dearly for embracing these men during a time when many people who would know about their sexual preference would stay clear of them. She is a true sweetheart that I adore.

The transformation of Carol and her makeup and costuming was pretty dramatic. Some of those snippets even got a chuckle from the audience as the way fashion changed over the years to the then-current time (late-1970's). Your montage @2:34 helped remind of this.

    Watching Carol Burnett was a must in our family. Mainly because she was a crazy woman and we all wanted to be entertained by her. She had many guests on her show including Jim Nabors. I guess if they weren't as crazy as she was they weren't going to be on there. Another regular was Lucille Ball and now it was two crazy redheads. What's missing from TV viewing are the Variety Shows nothing like the good old days.

    She knew great guests help make a great show and with her own talent it worked. She was never jealous of other peoples success and talent. Johnny Carson did the same. The opposite in my opinion was Tom Arnold. When his then wife Roseanne forced the management to give him his own show he tried to do everything. No wonder it failed.

    Hey Dave! 😊 A couple of thoughts here... 'The Carol Burnett Show', and Carol herself in any roll were, as they use to say, 'Must See TV' for the younger version of myself, (I wonder what ever happened to him/me? lol) I still watch snippets of 'TCBS' right here on CZcams. It is as clean and funny now as when I was a kid! Last night, I listened to an interview with an 80 year old Jim Nabors on, 'Two Chairs No Waiting'. Jim told the story of how he was (kinda) tricked into singing, 'Back Home Again in Indiana", which he use to sing just before the running of every Indianapolis 500 race. I won't spoil it for everyone, but I will leave the link below if anyone is interested in hearing that interview. Also, there is a scene in 'Gomer Pyle USMC' where he is sitting on the stairs of America's magnificent Lincoln Memorial. In the short scene 'Gomer' is having doubts about his ability to sing in a Marine Corps singing competition, when a caretaker notices him and helps him with some sage advice. 'Gomer', of course, knocks that song right out of the park! He sang 'The Impossible Dream'. It was only one of two times I ever saw my ole Pop cry, I'll never forget that touching moment. I can see why she loved Jim so much, he was one of a kind, so talented and just a lovable guy! *Great as always, Dave!* Jim Nabors Interview: czcams.com/video/fqtFrwYAG-c/video.html And, Jim Nabors/ 'Gomer Pyle' sings 'The Impossible Dream': czcams.com/video/yJlgio-UOng/video.html

    I did see the episode with Frank Gorshin the other day on Decades tv. Dave did you ever do a segment on him? He was more than just the riddler. His impressions were funny, he was in Las Vegas shows, in movies both comedies and dramas and besides Carol Burnett was on other variety shows like Ed Sullivan Show. In fact he was on the show from February 9, 1964 the night The Beatles appeared for the first time. You can also see it on Decades
