Published on May 15, 2007
Tim Conway destroys his castmates during a "Mama's Family" sketch on the "Carol Burnett Show" by refusing to let the scene continue until he can finish a story about a circus elephant. Unedited!
I always loved watching this show.

(12,603 posts)He had it down to a science, I think. Korman's breaking character because of something Tim Conway said or did was one of my favorite parts of the show.
I always laugh when I watch the elephant story.

(7,550 posts)even though fifty years hindsight has shown a lot of Kaye's novelty songs to be some really racist stuff, but that was true of the entertainment industry as a whole at the time. Korman's work with Mel Brooks over the years will always be among my favorites.
