Carol Burnett (90) Immediately Fired Harvey Korman After This Happened

[@patriciamurfitt4590]

Carol Burnett is an American treasure 🥰 Every Saturday evening the place to be was watching the Carol Burnett show 😂

This was at least twice as long as it needed to be! Like reading an essay with a required number of words and the student keeps saying the same thing in a different way…

I know, right? "This is why Harvey Korman was fired from Carol Burnett's show. Speaking of Carol Burnett, she was born in..."

@MaskedMan66 That is so true.

[@legion7478]

Harvey came to work either hung over or drunk still. Had a bad attitude and went off on Tim. Got fired and dropped the tude and came back. This helped Carol gain a spine and be a better leader. The rest we saw

Why in the world do they DO that!?

I got that in a skit with Petula Clark which also involved Korean, Korean’s behavior toward Clark was unprofessional. Carol Burnett didn’t tolerate it and fired Korean…temporarily.

She told Harvey if he was unhappy he was free to go. But he changed his attitude after that and put a sign on his door that said "Mr. Happy Go Lucky". She didn't fire him.

This video, like so many others, can't get to the reason of the title until they give a biography of the person in the video. No way they needed to give the background on Carol's life.

[@johnmcclearen]

Left out Burnett's time on the Gary Moore Show. Korman did not come back to finish out the last season. He was replaced first by Dick Van Dyke and then Steve Lawrence and Ken Berry.. Overall, poorly researched and presented.

[@janinifarris4414]

Carol and Harvey reconciled and they along with Tim had a beautiful reunion special where they highlighted Carol favorite skits on the show.

[@OKEYDAYLJ]

Carol had already decided to end the show. The 11th season was going to be the last, regardless of Harvey. Carol wanted to explore other parts of her career (Friendly Fire with Ned Beatty). Harvey had been offered his own show, but I don't think it even lasted one season. The chemistry between all the actors on her show have never been seen since. Harvey and Tim went on to travel the country with their two man show. Seems like that wouldn't have happened if there were hard feelings about him leaving the show.

[@MaskedMan66]

It has been seen since; they did a number of reunion specials.

[@jaytitus902]

WoW! So many words for such little content.

[@thebigt42]

BS Truth "That night after the show I went into his dressing room," Burnett said on TODAY, to ask Korman why he was acting the way he was. "He said, 'well you know I'm just not happy here.' I said 'OK, don't come back.'" After Burnett said, on a Friday, that he was welcome to leave and not return, Korman backtracked. Burnett ultimately gave him another chance, but there was an ultimatum; he needed to be more positive at work. Naturally, Burnett had something in mind. She told him, "'When I see you Monday morning I want you to whistle and skip down the hallway at CBS,'" Burnett explained with a laugh. "That Monday, I'm walking towards the elevator... It opened and Harvey came out, we kind of looked at each other and he started whistling and skipping down the hall. I howled. Finally, I had a plaque made that I put on his dressing"

[@99Hudson]

I have all of Petchoola Clark’s records. 😂😂😂😂

[@sharonallison9922]

[@lowbridge7070]

In a biography of Carol, a behind the camera crew member remarked on the replacement of Harvey Korman with Dick Van Dyke which in a roundabout way is a compliment about Harvey's comedic talent: "When Harvey put on a wig, he became a character. When Dick Van Dyke put on a wig, he became Dick Van Dyke in a wig."

[@domingofernandez789]

The Carol Burnett show can be seen in Arizona Mondays thru Fridays at 10PM and Sundays at 9:30 PM in MeTV Channel 93 (Cox).

[@christianmckenzie1327]

That's because they never fired him. Also, he never had any issues with Tim Conway. They were always in competition pulling pranks on each other

[@maryrosekent8223]

Petchula Clark? Pe-too-lah Clark. YIKES!

my moms best friend looked alot like carol i loved my moms friend so much and ithink thats why i always loved carol

[@michauxbours]

To be fair to Korman, Carol was way too indulgent of Conway & his improv's: that was a live show, so time would've been an issue (commercial breaks), but no, Conway was just too hilarious to ever be stopped. Conway was a very talented comedian, but he & Carol should've known: "less is more".

[@Kilmerlz]

Read the disclaimer BEFORE watching video.

Having read the disclaimer, I'm not going to bother.

[@HoseaMatavao]

Damn they I feel were the (BEST) cast this a good show 👍👍👍👍

[@franktorres2718]

He was back the next day, skipping and whistling ‼️

[@susanengland3919]

This video contradicts itself. First it says that Harvey Korman quit, then it says that he was fired. Which was true? It has to be one or the other.

[@jeffreybarker4193]

I believe Harvey was fired because he was Jealous of Carols success. Everything about the show was about carol. Harvey tried to ruin things for Carol by being rude to the guest and messing things up. After Carol fired Harvey he tried his hand at a show of his own which flopped. Carol was popular and famous not to mention household name. Once Harvey was gone he never amounted to anything and was never successful. Truthfully Carol never really needed Harvey her show was still popular after he was fired.

[@kenday7942]

This presentation would be a great example of how to stretch a six-minute subject out to over 26 minutes!

[@Cornbread-gi6kt]

Show went downhill after Korman left. And he complained about his lines, more acting participation, and drank to often, and salary. What about her role in the television series the ‘Twilight Zone’?🤷🏼

Yes it did. He had gotten too difficult to work with.

[@davidmezainis7814]

First they say he left the show then they say she fired him, which is it?

[@lisaherrick2610]

I wish they would had played the skit.

[@lisaherrick2610]

The curtain rod dress was an improv. She couldn't get the material down so she just took the whole rod.

[@snickpickle]

You’re partly right. The costume designer, Bob Mackie, came up with the idea, somewhat on-the-spot. I cite her autobiography as the source.

[@daemetheus]

holy crap, what is all this preamble?

[@MaskedMan66]

That's the trouble: it's all preamble (and an ambling preamble at that), no payoff.

[@Liz-cmc313]

This could of been shortened.

[@jasonwolkow566]

This could have been 20 minutes shorter. The narrator just kept repeating the same thing over and over in different wording. Abd we didn't need the history of Carol's childhood.

[@superstrangevideo]

16 minutes to get to the answer dude? Translation: Korman was re-hired after Burnett's rating went down the tubes!

[@lisaherrick2610]

So who did she help after she became successful?

[@sandralazaridis64]
