Tim Conway makes Harvey Korman laugh for twelve hilarious minutes.

Remember those Saturday nights? We’d settle in front of the TV, the living room aglow with anticipation, for another episode of “The Carol Burnett Show.” Oh, those were the days, weren’t they? The air was filled with the aroma of freshly popped popcorn, and the family gathered together, a rarity now, it seems. At the heart of our laughter were Tim Conway and Harvey Korman, a duo unmatched in their comedic genius. This collection of skits below are going to crack you up!

Who could forget “The Oldest Safecracker” skit? I recall how we’d lean in closer, chuckling even before the joke landed, knowing Tim, with that stocking clumsily pulled over his head, was about to send Harvey—and us—into uncontrollable fits of laughter. It was a simpler time, where the anticipation of laughter was as joyous as the laughter itself.

Then there was “The Oldest Sheriff,” with Tim’s agonizingly slow antics, a cigarette rolling saga that turned into an epic sneeze. Harvey’s attempt to maintain composure was futile, and our living room erupted in laughter, echoing the joy on the screen. It was as if Tim and Harvey were right there with us, sharing a joke among friends.

“The Island Soldiers” skit brought the absurdity of the 71st battalion into our homes. Tim and Harvey, in their military mishaps, reminded us of the lighter side of life. Their laughter was contagious, spreading from our television speakers to our hearts, leaving us in stitches.

And who could overlook “The Oldest Surgeon”? Tim holding up that X-ray, delivering a line so perfectly timed it seemed to pause the world outside. Harvey’s inevitable breakdown was a moment we awaited eagerly, a shared delight that connected us to millions of others watching.

Then came the “New Angel” skit, a piece of comedic heaven. Harvey, trying to guide Tim’s clumsy newcomer angel, was a sight to behold. We watched, knowing the laughter was coming, feeling for a moment that all was right in the world.

These skits were more than mere comedy; they were Saturday night rituals, moments of shared joy that stitched the fabric of our memories. They reminded us of a time when laughter was a communal experience, when television had the power to bring families together in joy and anticipation.

So, to those who remember, let’s raise a glass to Tim Conway and Harvey Korman, to “The Carol Burnett Show,” and to those magical Saturday nights. Why not take a moment to relive those times, to feel once more the anticipation, the joy, and the laughter that filled our homes?
