RIP Tim--what a comic genius. The dentist skit was one of the funniest things to be seen.

O my goodness. I'm black but I clearly remember Barbara Mandrell in her hey day singing country and I thought she has the most beautiful blue eyes and I loved her music as well.I also enjoyed her show what a talented lady with her equally beautiful sisters ❤️

Wow, thank you for posting this. I somehow missed this back in 1987 and just saw it for the first time. I had seen Barbara Mandrell twice in concert before then; don't know how I never saw this!

I love Carol Burnett! She is a phenomenon and will turn 90 in April! I just finished reading her autobiography "One More Time " and it shows how amazing she is and moreover, how kind she is, too!

Love seeing Steve Lawrence. I think this might have been the first appearance since the death of their son Michael. He died in Feb. 1986. They took a year off. Both took it hard but I think Eydie took it harder.

[@ellengutknecht4994]

Steve just passed away on March 7, 2024. I wish Steve had a This is your Life episode. He had a great life being married to Eydie Gorme.

I was looking forward to seeing Don Knotts since he and Tim did 5 movies together.

Ernest Borgnine and Tim Conway, aka Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy.

Do you have anymore please

The tape editor got a workout here. Great to see the Conway segment, but somehow, it all felt awkward.

[@kianaiannarelli7498]

Could you explain that about in 1999 when he voiced 2 characters besides more than one in spongebob?

[@jnadle1]

This special should've been co-produced with Ralph's partner in crime, Stu Billett.

[@MichaelBoyce-tm2vw]

Both now gone...RIP to both and God bless.

[@haveyouseenthis516]

Barbara Mandrell is still alive.

[@kianaiannarelli7498]

No, not really. Because two people remember their lives!!!!!

Steve Allen is not funny ,he lived off other people's talent 😮
