It sure looked like Vicki was thinking about fainting. Hilarious! Great moment.

No sooner does Carol get her first line of dialogue out then we hear a woman in the audience laughing like a cackling hen. And the chicken laugh just keeps recurring. Later during the sketch Carol ad-libs about "strange laughter" and you just know she means that lady in the studio audience. Too funny.

[@rosemariemann1719]

The cackling lady spoiled it, didn't it...glad I wasn't the only one to notice how much it intruded...😢. Even Carol referred to it..... Love Carol and the team : so many lovely shows, to dip into here.😊. Love from England. 😊🇬🇧💕🇺🇲💕🌎🌿

The actor in that first scene was Ross Martin who starred in the campy series Wild, Wild West. He died too young and was a very talented actor - as was Carol Burnett, Tim Conway, and Harvey Korman.

[@Ruthie29]

I had a feeling that's who it was! All I can remember is that he played Artemis Gordon in Wild Wild West. My dad loved that show, and since he controlled the TV channels when he was at home,I had to watch it also. One tv per household as it were. So what dad watched, we watched.

[@ronleight9341]

@@Ruthie29 Agreed! I was stuck watching Gunsmoke! Lol

There was nothing campy about that show; West and Gordon were ladies' men to the core.

Campy?

@@davhuf3496 It's a word that really means something that is meant to appeal to homosexuals, but which has been misused like crazy for decades to mean anything outre or kitschy, like the 1960's "Batman" T.V. series, for instance.
