Carol, of course, was hilarious spoofing Esther Williams here (loved how the unseen chorus suffered with her when she bumped her head and burbled- LOL)- and she seems to have been quite an acrobatic swimmer herself at the time! Wonder whose pool+ house they used to film this? I hope Miss Williams liked this salute(and, no doubt herself DID suffer from head bumps, rotten floating plants, etc while filming her bits).

love CAROL BURNETT forever

I grew up watching this show with my grandma and we used to laugh ourselves silly. As I got older I realized how much ground breaking Carol did on tv as a comedienne. AND as a dramatic actress, she got a Golden Globe nomination as best actress for the film "The Life of the Party", a true story. I'm posting for other fans in L.A. who might want a chance to see her in person, she's hosting and will do a Q&A after.

Go to Friendly House LA (dot) o r g to see an invite.

True. When I was 10, the biggest punishment my mom could levy on me was I couldn't stay up on Saturday night to watch Carol--and on those nights I didn't get to watch, it *was* torture--I'd sooner get a spanking than miss it. I used to sneak and watch through the keyhole in the hall door--then I'd get in *more* trouble!
