This show was an amazing hit due to the fine comedic talents of Carol Burnett and a terrific supporting cast of Tim Conway, Vicki Lawrence, Harvey Korman and Lyle Waggoner.
Those sketches of Burnett will be forever etched in the minds of television viewers. Who can forget Mrs. Wiggins or Nora Desmond, the latter a take off on the brilliant performance of Gloria Swanson as Norma Desmond in 1950's "Sunset Boulevard?" Swanson, at one time, guest starred on the Burnett show and stated that she never realized that Norma Desmond was such a comical rather than tragic figure.
I'm so glad we had this time together.
