Carol Burnett Show: TV Guide News

carol Burnett
Great skits (especially the movie parodies), music and celebrity guests add up to a classic series with the gifted, versatile Burnett and her talented regulars. The variety show debuted in 1967 on CBS, and was a Saturday-night staple for much of its 11-season run on the network before it was `time to say goodbye' with a brief stint on ABC in 1978. Lesser, retooled incarnations aired on NBC (1990-91) and again on CBS in 1991.
  • Emmy-winning Comedian Harvey Korman Dead at 81 | Today's News: Our Take | 5/30/2008
    Multiple Emmy-winner Harvey Korman, known for his work on The Carol Burnett Show and Blazing Saddles, died on Thursday in Los Angeles. He was 81. In a statement, Korman's family said his death was related to complications from a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm that occurred four months ago. Korman got his start on TV in 1964 with The Danny Kaye Show. When it was canceled three years later, he joined Carol Burnett. Korman went on to have his own, eponymous series — which did not last long — and eventually began working in film, too.

    Question: It seems a given, in the many questions about network scheduling that you receive, that Saturday night is where TV shows go to die, so no one schedules a potential keeper on Saturday. Yet within living memory (mine, at least), CBS had a killer Saturday lineup that would put any recent "must-see" night to shame (All in the Family, M*A*S*H, Mary Tyler Moore, Bob Newhart, Carol Burnett). I know we went out on Saturday night in the '70s (and with no TiVo, or even VCRs). It can't just be due to the fracturing of cable — if the audience is really too small on Saturday, then it's too small whether your share is 15 percent or 35 percent. I've been looking back trying to find the tipping point, but I can't see when the landscape changed. What in the business has caused this change in perception? On a completely unrelated note: I have fallen in love with Slings & Arrows. Has there been, or is there going to be, a third season? I need more of New Burbage!
