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

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.

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. ❤

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!

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.

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!

Carol was/is a brilliant performer and while her show originally aired, I was doing things other than watch TV, but years later on KZfaq, 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.

@nongthip Жыл бұрын

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.
