My dad was not big on t.v. no t.v. in our house til after dinner, usually only an hour a night, on an old b/w set from Rink's, but he absolutely adored Carol Burnett, said she " wasn't like the rest of Hollywood flakes, she was a good woman". I could put most everything he said aloud in 20 years on an hour long tape, minus while he was watching this show. He'd laugh, it was great. Sounds like I grew up in the 40s, but, I was born in 68. Just grew up on an old farm, with a simple family, that believed in simple life. The Carol Burnett Show was a big part of it in the evenings.

I didn't see any of her shows from the last 5 years it was on TV in North America - it was never shown in NZ - but THANK YOU KZbin!! Everything I've seen on here has been wonderfully ridiculous!! All of them had a marvellous talent!

[@clieding]

when I watched the „Carol Burnett Show“ as a boy, the „Eunice“ skits were my favorite. In time I began to see that there was a tragic undercurrent running throughout these skits. Carol Burnett said herself „that humor comes from a place of pain“. There was an episode once that I watched together with my mother and at the conclusion we both agreed the story was so real and pathetic that it was not funny anymore. They had gone over a delicate line from farce to pathos. It was pure genius, both the writing and of course Carol‘s heartfelt performance.

HERE is The Savior YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified for our sins, NOT jesus, and “HERE IS THE PROOF” From the Ancient Semitic Scroll: "Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3) Ancient Semitic Direct Translation Yad - "Behold The Hand" He - "Behold the Breath" Vav - "Behold The NAIL"

What was great about this show and others back then is it was all live, unlike shows today.

The Family was my favorite part of the show. That and the old movie take offs.

[@FlowerLady-tv3ys]

That one was funny. I was a teenager when this one came out. So long ago!! Lol!! Another legend, The Carol Burnett Show. We would watch as a family when it came on. The next generation will never know shows like this. So sad. Good tv.

[@kimkelly5512]

Thanks for the memories Carol and Co!!!

[@eduardo_corrochio]

This gem is my favorite family sketch that they made. Poor Eunice should know better than to try and get a fun game going with these people. Thanks so much for sharing this video. There's a lot of comedy TV stuff that I enjoy, but the Eunice sketches are absolutely top drawer entertainment for me. The writing, the acting, the timing-- it's impeccable stuff, and a complete original.

[@bioscorp6178]

Always come away from these skits feeling so sorry for Eunice!!

Not really mama was racist , Ed was homophobic and it's about a family of alcoholics...still funny
