@zamusicza Most of this stuff DID make it on TV. This cast could improvise & would often break script, which is why you often see the other person trying not to crack up like here. And, as long as it was funny, it would usually air.
I used to watch this show with my mom. She was usually a very serious person but this was one of the only shows that made her laugh out loud. Those lines Vicki dropped on Carol are good clean bust a gut humour, nothing like it anymore today. Thanks YouTube for allowing these oldies but goodies to be played!
When I was little in the 1970s, I thought that Carol Burnett and Vicki Lawrence were twins or at least sisters, they were so much alike. Wild that they were put on this earth at the same time!
Loved the line, "You've got splinters in the windmills of your mind"!! To set it up, earlier in the show, Carol had to quote a line from the song "Windmills of Your Mind", and could not do it, so Vicki is having fun with it, as did a few others during the show in other sketches.
I know it get's said quite often, but the 70's were just "The Shit"! I was only a little kid watching this show or All In The Family with my folks, but looking back at the talent and dedication in music, movies, and sports. American patriotism and "UNITY", kid's playing outside all day long with barely and fear of abduction, neighbors truly caring for one another. What went wrong?
Vicki Lawrence Fans - Don't miss her upcoming appearance, Sat, Jan. 22, 2011 on the Dave's Gone By radio show! She'll talk about her career, her one-woman show and the controversy over her new viral video. Listen live - Sat, 10am-1pm(MT) on UNCRadio. c0m or hear the audio in the free archives at: davesgoneby. c0m.
@ThePaddyjoejr1 nobody today comes even close to being this funny. actors today sell themselves out to the highest bidder with no consideration to integrity. they will say or do whatever the producers tellthem to do withought any thought whatsoever they will do so because they havev no talent to leverage themselves with. that or daddies money buys them a way into a marketplace they could never tap on their own. it's called paying your dues & daddies money can never buy that.
@ThePaddyjoejr1 wow gues that's why I play 4 muscial instruements they don't even play one. miley is about as talented as justim beeber. they are just a pretty face. talent does not depend on looks.
oh man,we used to love this show in our house.It must be 35 years ago.The best part was watching the cast members visibly laughing at each others lines,lol
Carol Burnett and her zany cast provided some of the best entertainment ever seen on television. She had one of the longest running variety shows ever, and it was the last of it's kind. Unfortunately, they don't them like this anymore.
I bet there's not another show where the cast broke each other up so much that they had to keep it in the version that was broadcast. I know I have laughed so hard I cried watching some of these sketches.
Then there's the part where Carol Burnett is trying so hard no to laugh that she pees right in her dress!! Vicki as Mama then says 'Now you went and got your dingy all wet. "
Vicki Lawrence is the shit!! She was totally spitting fire, and even Carol couldn't contain herslef... If I was alive back then I woulda passed out from watching that.
@treefittyforall this is one of my fav shows when I was asked in interpersonal relationships class in HS I answered this and recalled a clip of Bubba running up and down the stair and mama asking what he was doing are you going up or down and he says he was building his leg strength and then she replys I'm gonna be building my leg strength by kicking you in the behind
@treefittyforall Us who were old enough to remember this, like I do (I was about 11 or 12 years old when this aired) did pass out from laughter at this and many other skits on this show. That or we'd wet our pants.
Hysterically funny, and no one said or did anything disgusting, off color or gross.
