- Eunice, Ed, and Ellen help Mama clean out the attic causing old family secrets to be exposed. Guest starring Betty White. Unedited as it originally aired on December 11, 1976.
RIP Betty White thank you very much for the memories
Amen!!!
Just sad
I'm going to miss Betty White.
Betty: You were a true ICON!!!
I always loved it when betty would play the part of Ellen. She is truly going to be missed. 😭
Always loved this skit. I remember when my great-grandmother died in 1972. My relatives fought in the attic just like this over a cuckoo clock, an old quilt, and other stuff. Every family has a Eunice, Ed, Ellen, and Momma. 😅
I am the Eunice, my ex husband definitely was the Ed...my mom wasn't southern but a tiny Italian, miss bickering with my mom so much.
My older sister cruel perfect Ellen. Came around to visit my mom maybe twice a year. I took my mom everywhere with me and she bitch about anything and everything God bless her soul.
My mom and I would laugh so hard watching this show.
Wow I bet seeing this skit hit really close to home.
“I cAnt take 3 of you DAMN DRAAAGONS!” Lol … Harvey was absolutely hysterical.
I understand why Carl was always hiding in the bathroom
Whoever cast Betty White in the role of Ellen should get an Academy Award. She does catty like nobody's business 😄
Yep lol
Betty was such a versatile actress.
@The mysterious Miss X you're wanting to start an argument. I'm not interested go find somebody else.
@The mysterious Miss X you didn't watch Lake Placid, where she played a murderer. or the movie, where she played the widow of a war veteran, nor her role in The bold & the beautiful.
and her first role in Life with Elizabeth.
It would be an Emmy.
These skits were so masterfully written and acted out, they almost serve as a kind of collective family therapy for millions of people out there watching. They simply nailed the nuances and struggles of family life in mid-century America, and watching them 50+ years later, they appear every bit as relevant now as they did then.
Still funny after all these years. A true classic never gets old.
Shoot! I still watch I Love Lucy and Bewitched
Me too all great
Eunice's facial expressions were EVERYTHING!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
She's a human emoji
Fuck yeah. 😂😂😂
The wonderful Betty White! Almost 100 years of laughter and positivity. Rest in peace.
Loved this comment 😁
@The mysterious Miss X you are the most negative person on this thread of that's what God dues then that's not good.
@The mysterious Miss X what an ignorant comment. If you would learn to read comprehensively, you would understand my comment was about Betty White. As a Christian, I find your comment to be blasphemous against God's world and the good that is here.
@The mysterious Miss X LOL you d*mb f*ck trolls love spewing your utter stupidity
These shows never get old, always good for a laugh 😂😂😂😂😂
YES NEED ALL THE LAUGH
ALWAYS!!💯💯💯
When I was a kid, every Saturday night, we got to stay up to watch Carol Burnett. I remember this one well. Betty White just died yesterday. A Hollywood legend. RIP.
Betty’s “Ellen” is the QUEEN of passive-aggressive jabs! 💛👑😂
"I don't know why when I see you I always think of septic tanks..."
"That'70's Show" even made that the point of an episode. "I can't stand her." "Did she do that thing where she pretends to be nice to you, but really she's insulting you?" "Yes!" "Frigid witch!"
Ellen can throw shade like no other!
😎🌴🌴
@@AccessoriesAddict5528 "There you go telling me how to live my life again!"
The most accurate depiction ever! -- of a dysfunctional, American, southern, family. Perfect!
Thanks for reminding me families aren't always perfect 😂
My best friends family is just like them… it’s kinda funny when they start just talking into a fight
Yes I have always loved momma's family. As a child and adult
Sad thing is it distracted me growing up from my own. This familywas nice compared to mine.
it goes on many families Des kind of fights😂😂😂
All of eunices siblings became successful but poor Eunice stayed behind with Mama and never followed her dream
I loved The Family skits when I was a child. Eunice seemed so far fetched and unreal that I would laugh my ass off. When I finally watched The Family skits as an adult years later, I finally realized that she wasn't so far fetched after all.
@Arikm7 And I hope you felt loved.
@@swtv1754 And I hope that the beloved pet wasn't that evening's main course.
I feel the same way.
If you think about it it's really quite sad. Mama really was a rotten mama
@@merricat3025 The worst. And Eunice ended up being her caretaker. I would have shoved that old with into Ye Olde Witch's Home and never looked back.
I love carol burnett.I have seen the family skits a zillion times..and never gets old or boring..it's classic tv..well written and well performed.
Stevi Starfyre,
Me too. Her show was one of the best ones ever in the history of primetime television. She was and always will be one of the best comediennes ever. Today's comedic entertainers aren't quite as good, sad to say.
Comedy writers are not funny anymore. They write stale cliches and stale caricatures of people. These skits are timeless.
Up there with some of the best snl skits
💯!!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
"I don't know why it is whenever I see you I always think of septic tanks!" Epic burn! And the look on his face was priceless! 😆😆😆
🤣🤣🤣🤣
This was one of the best skits in The Carol Burnett Show history RIP Betty white .
Yes, I have to agree- the best!
Brilliant!!!! I met Carol 6 years ago she is such a humble gentle woman!!! Thank you for sharing and God bless you!!!!
And the Emmy goes to this episode, and the entire Mama's Family, for script, acting, makeup, producers, grips, lighting, and of I have forgotten anyone, please excuse me because I'm laughing so hard. The entire cast and crew are priceless, never to be duplicated in our lifetimes. 🤟
This and the "Sorry" episode are my favorite!
Yes! Plus the restaurant sketch.
It was a seeevn.
@@rodneyspeaks2975 YES!
Me too! I love the "Sorry" episode best, followed by this one.
I saw it in the window...I just HAD to have it ! (From her Gone with the Wind skit) my favorite
These 4 are absolutely the masters of comedic performance. True artists and the best in their craft by FAR. Betty White…rest with Allen…99 years wasn’t enough time.
My favorite " family" skit!!!! BETTY WHITE can play savage real well!!!!
This is four great comedians together! They were hilarious! Rest In Peace, Betty. You are truly loved and missed. ❤️🌹❤️
People say it as a joke but it really felt like Betty White was in every tv show imaginable. She was great in every role she ever had. Her leaving us is such a huge loss for all of us. RIP Betty
Not to mention during Ms. White’s appearance on this show, she was also doing the Mary Tyler Moore Show, + her countless appearances on “Match Game” & “Password” in which her late Hubby Alan Ludden hosted. & that was just in the 1970’s!!!! What a Legend she was!!!!
She left us with many laughs and feel good vibes, just like Lucy.
She was awesome on Match Game!
VICKI LAWRENCE WAS LIKE 30 SOMETHING YET SHE PLAYED A CANTANKEROUS OLD WOMAN PERFECTLY
She was a wonderful actress playing like she was an old lady!
I think she was 27 or 28 here
Yeah, she'd probably type in caps too
@@SUGAR_XYLER people who type in caps are cool
She was in her 20s during the Carol Burnett Show then her 30s when they did Mama's Family
We’re so blessed that these talented ladies are still with us as of May 2020
And as of November 2021! Betty White turns 100 in a matter of weeks!! I can't wait to see what celebrations her birthday bring. Carol said in her latest book 4-5 years ago that she planned to honor Betty when she turns 100. In what way I don't know though.
@@BenjiOrthopedic wow, she is a beast she never stopped working her entire life.
Almost 2022!
My favorite actors! 💕 Never failed to make me laugh no matter how many times I watch!
@@BenjiOrthopedic just heard she had died. RIP
There’s no comedy as fantastic as this today!😮 These were the days of comedic genius!!!!❤❤
Still funny after all these years! Loved the Carol Burnette show! RIP our beloved Betty White!
The writers for this show were pure geniuses as were the actresses and actors. Poor fluffy.
@@Jack_Russell_Brown Don't be depressed. It happened a long time ago. We've all had our Fluffies. And you have a little dog now.
😆 🤣 😂.
@@Jack_Russell_Brown
Yes. We all have memories of those days. Nobody's family is perfect.
Carol said the writers hated their mother
OmGod you can type that again lol!
Omg they are all pros. These are one act plays. Not skits. Fabulous
I remember watching this with my grandparents :-) ... great memories
!!

Who hurt you?

@CaramelDlux2013 How unpleasant.
This is too good. The writing, the acting, the comedic timing, the facial expressions... We need to ensure this is protected and preserved in the National Archives of American Television.
Brilliant comedians. All 4 of them. Carol and Betty playing off each other is priceless.
I love them all Eunice was so funny , Carol crack me up when she played Sacrlett O’Hara and Queen Elizabeth she was so incredible 😂🤣😂🤣 Fly High Harvey, Tim , Betty, so happy we still have all theses videos and memories 🥰😂🤣
"I don't know why it is, but every time I see you I think of septic tanks." 🤣
Carol’s facial expression when she told mama “ Shut up you Rabbit Killer”. Had me dying laughing uncontrollably. That woman faces and her eyes look so serious like she wanna choke
Mama out. Eunice is the sister that will go from Zero to 100 if provoked, and Betty White was the provoker.RIP Betty . Carol you are a legend and so is Vikki.
VICKIE, CAROL, BETTY AND WHERE'S RUE, THESE GALS ARE SO HILARIOUS!!!!
Painfully true. I was the left behind of The Green Girls
I like that line, too! The way Carole delivers it and the look in her eyes is just totally great!
I don't know if Ellen was the provoker. Ellen would just get the ugliest during the arguments.
@@torridd lol yes!
Goodness! 🤣 I never saw this skit, but I think it’s one of their best
I love TV attics. You can stand up and walk around in them. Lots of furniture, never any dust, nothing gets mouse-eaten and cool treasures to find.
Who ever wrote these 'The Family' was a genius
Bryant yes it was carol reliving her childhood only more alcohol was responsible for this behavior
Dick Clair and Jenna McMahon wrote The Family.
youtube gold
I thought it was crass and immature. On purpose?
paul ducharme it was meant to be. Represented a part of American life. The comment about the writing of these was about the dialogue and the way they tell a story that’s realistic, often using pathos
BETTY WHITE SLAYED!!!!!!
One of my favorite skits!
RIP Betty White.
RIP Betty White. This skit is as old as dirt but it was always my favorite. I am laughing so hard right now that I'm crying.
Even though it's "dirt old", with today's filming/recasting technology this sketch could have been filmed as late as the mid 2000's before everything went digital, the image is that clear.
Betty White was an American Icon who brought laughter and many years of entertainment on television and the big screen She truly was a wonderful actress and a huge access to Hollywood. She left so much love behind
Rest in peace Betty White! I loved her appearances on Carol Burnett's TV show.
What's remarkable as I'm watching this played out is each player had to memorize a book full of dialogue without any intermission, not miss a beat and be damn funny all the way till the end.
It's like being in a Broadway play. You show your true colors and what you're made of.
Carol's eyes when she blows them out wide on her close-ups, nothing conveys hysteria better than those eyes.
Whatta hoot !
and to think they had under a week to memorize these dialogues, not including the other skits in that weeks show.
This may be the ONLY time Eunice came out on top against her relatives! Ellen had it coming.
She also did when her friend played by Joanne Woodward came to town for the afternoon.
I LOVE Harvey so much! All the actors on this show. Carol, Vicki, Betty, all the boys, all the dancers etc..
NEVER GETS OLD
"shut up you rabbit killer!"
I always used to LOL at that!
Rest In Heavenly Peace Betty White, Sidney Poitier and Bob Saget. You all will be missed. You all have indeed earned your wings
Bob, the pedophile won't be.
Bob Saget died? Didn’t know
I just watched this last night and thought about Betty White before I heard the ineffable news. She always made me laugh and smile. I couldn’t stop watching this again. I loved her in Golden Girls and she will never be forgotten. Thank you for being a friend Betty! 😘🙏🏻💖
Lmfao!! "But, I can't take THREE of you damn dragons!" I never saw this episode, and that part had me laughing and snorting. 🤣🤣
That is one of the best lines. Harvey was such a gem
I was about 8 or 9 when my mom introduced me to Carol. I loved her then and even now 30+ years later.
sxm76
My oldest sister introduced me and still 💜 these. So many Great 👍🏾 comedians in one ☝🏿 program.
Has never and never will happen again.
I always loved Eunice. Her fluttery dress with the fluttery sleeves and white sandals. Always wanting to be somebody and everyone putting her down. I can so relate. I have a sister. I was the dark haired one, she was blonde. She was smarter, prettier, went to college, had a career married well and moved out of state. I graduated HS, was a waitress, stayed in th same city, and married blue collar. But boy can I ever laugh at these situations!! The writers were RIGHT ON!!
Can you believe Mama & Eunice's dresses are Bob Mackie originals?
@@TheLuckyjoenga What does that have to do with Lucy's post, idiot?
@@TheLuckyjoenga I know, right?! He was an amazing designer.
Lucy Loo, your post made me smile. We all are so much more alike than we know. 🤗
You sure the dresses from this skit are Mackey?
@@bunnicula38 wow...mean.
I like how Betty White can play spiteful and vicious.
Oh, she's a master at it, playing Ellen.
j
she is such a breath of fresh air!
Yep reminds me of my aunte a bit
I think Ellen's husband is gay.
This is priceless this is one of my favorite Family skits, though I really love them all. I cracked up on Harvey opening the box and Carol dealing with the dishes and lamp at the end!!!
"....we all know we live in a dump" - this is the 2nd best Family skit behind "Sorry". Simply BRILLIANT! I think the one where Eunice, Ed, and Mama visit Bubba's teacher is 3rd, Eunice and Mama go to the Hardware Store is 4th, the one where Aunt May dies is 5th, the one where Mama has a broken ankle is 6th, the one where Eunice, Ed, and Mama go to visit Mickey's apartment is 7th, then the one with the flashback as to why Eunice had to marry Ed is 8th, the one with Alan Alda visiting as Christmas is 9th, the one where Eunice, Ed and Mama go to a fancy restaurant and the one where Joanne Woodward plays Eunice's best friend are a tie to round out the top 10. As someone mentioned in the comments below, these were 1 act plays. The writing and acting and story lines are timeless and as good as anything ever put on TV or the stage.
I love the one where The Family goes to visit Phillip in Hollywood. It was on youtube but was removed years ago. I miss that one so much. And the full uncut Fancy Restaurant has never been on here, or anywhere. The edited version cuts out half of it. I miss that one a lot.
Most of these skits are classics, to a greater or lesser degree, but the Joanne Woodward one is one of my favorites. Woodward, as usual, was very good, playing the kind of character she didn't usually play. But Eunice had the last word in that skit, as well, which was unusual.
I would say Mama's Birthday ranks higher than the hardware store.
That one is hilarious.
"Fluffy, Fluffy, Fluffy!" LMBO That whole end bit had me in tears of laughter!
Eunice said "Shut up rabbit killer"🤣🤣🤣
Betty White ...ICON .
Americas sweethe💓rt .
She lived a long and wonderful life...the way _she_ chose to live it.
She is loved and will be missed by many❗⚘🍃
RIP Beautiful Betty White
One of the best roles Betty White played... hilarious...why do they remind me of my own family 🤔
The ensemble acting is sheer brilliance! Kudos to the writers for giving these actors great lines and situation to work with!
Still watching these funny shows December 2021. Carol is my favorite comedian
Impeccable delivery! Such talent.
Betty died today at 99. I just wanted to visit The Family to celebrate the genius of her work and of course this group of fine actors.
Excellent writers and talented actors. You cab’t get this kind of comedy anymore. And no bad language ., either. 🤓👍😘
Well, this here does have bad language, but it’s kept to a minimum and not going so far as to say like the f word.
9:37 Carol's faces in this were absolutely genius... Acting is all about reacting and she was reacting to the hilt in this.
Lol that LOOK would scare the crap outta me
@@bo2720 Carol was just that good an actress...she could play just about any kind of character. Eunice was a mental case from the wrong side of the tracks and Carol knew exactly how to play her. Absolutely incredible.
The level of dysfunction is over the top, but probably applies to at least 75% of families in real life. I know it does mine.
James R
DAMN RIGHT!
I get so sick 🤕 of the assholes that say their families aren’t dysfunctional!
You know that theirs put the ‘FUN’ in dysfunctional.
I can’t name one ☝🏿 family that isn’t fucked up.
My family would be like this if we were talking. But I like peace so I choose to stay away. Funny on screen but not real life.
Beverly Boo
TRUTH!
Beware of cousins.

ALWAYS!
“I can’t take 3 of you damned dragons!” 😂😂
grapplergirl10
Absolutely brilliant for Ed to finally be able to grow a pair especially amongst 3 to 1!
😺😹😸
Poor Ed, Just your typical working stiff trying to keep a roof over his wife and kids heads and all he ever got for it was constant ridicule.
It would be hard to take even 1 of them!!!
delivered perfectly
Logically progressive
In no way did he want to endure further castration.
Oh man! I was only 5 years old when this was broadcasted!. I miss Betty White!
'don't look a gift-horse in the mouth old lady!'
my God when Mama gave Eunice that ugly lamp to replace that Tiffany one, I thought I'd bust a kidney laughing so hard!🤣
when people knew what COMEDY WAS...won't have these anymore
Heartbreaking as much as it is fun! ☺️
They can’t make productions like this anymore. Something is lost. Spirit. People were simple. Walked and talked differently. The whole body language was different.
Something is lost...spirit. I can fully appreciate your comment. We can't relive these days, once the innocence is lost, it can't be recaptured.
Sad they don't make shows like this anymore....
There still are good shows, if people like you were able to get over your constant nostalgia and live in the present. 🙄
@@Neville60001 Just curious wha kind of shows you like from this era?
@@Neville60001 You mean like forced laugh tracks at things that aren't funny? LOL
The Office is classic. And get Netflix so u can watch these shows.
BROTHA Jeff You’re right, they don’t. This is classic!
3 Legendary women in one room. 👍🏻⭐️
I LOVE all the Family skits, but this one made my cheeks hurt, I laughed so hard!!!!
I love how Eunice, the scapegoat, gets the best out of everyone here.
Carol Burnett is truly a priceless gem!
This show never gets old when I watch the joy and laughter of The Family sketch. Betty was such a beautiful lady so sad that she passed on. Thank you so much for sharing this video, I can watch it all over again.
Happy Birthday Betty White. You were one special lady, and I’m sure you had a wonderful birthday in heaven with the love of your life 💖
Can you imagine how much they were cracking up in outtakes ?
Oh Fluffy ! Fluffy !
I cracked up so loud at this point when she said that then she said shut up murderer to mama...funniest moment
The show was filmed live. There are lots of times you can see the actors barely holding it together. Tim Conway would go off script just to get the rest of the cast to lose it.
I just read Carol’s latest memoir. It doesn’t sound like they laughed at all during the family sketches. Carol said they were ultimately very sad. They once did a rehearsal without the southern accents and over the top acting, and she said they were very sad and shaken up. She added that they could’ve been played as straight drama, without the comedy.
I love all of the old shows those were the best actors and actresses
Aw, I've had rabbits for pets since I was 9. That would devastate me too. Love Eunice's anger at the end though, haha
Omg, when Ellen told mama to shut up and that she was always “deliriously happy” when someone else was miserable, that was so my mother! That woman didn’t want anyone happy, especially me!!!
Betty White is such a talent!! She had a beehive here. She was in so many succesful shows. I hope she lives to be 120!! She has always been beautiful and funny. I love her on Mama's Family playing Ellen Harper Jackson. I wish she, Vicki, Carol, Dorothy Lyman, Alan Kayser, Beverly Archer would maybe do a reunion skit. Imagine them all today!! Unfortunatly we lost Harvey and Ken.
I doubt she wants to live that long. 😂
She certainly doesn't look as old as she actually is. She looks maybe 85 or 86 instead of 100.
@@jamesamick2945 She was the oldest cast member on The Golden Girls and she outlived the rest of them.
I've been watching Betty since I was a little girl and she never disappoints me. She's always classy and classicaly beautiful.
James Amick she’s 98
I have been watching these episodes every day with the way the world is today we all need some laughs
🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 BRILLIANT... ALL THE WAY AROUND... JUST A BRILLIANT PIECE OF COMEDY/DRAMA... EVERYONE WAS A-LIST... WRITING WAS ON TARGET...
This is the best episode as many times as I see it I all ways laugh
Man, watching this is like going to the playhouse! Fantastic!
"Shuddup, you rabbit killer!" I laughed so hard at her delivery of that line. Classic!
Thanks for being a friend to all. Love you forever!
The lashes on Carol Burnett look awesome!!!!
IKR?!👀
This is my favorite skit in the family series, it's so funny because it's so true
my daddy loved all these I miss him
Watching January 2024 this is still my favorite show, Carol Burnett is the funniest comedian ever
This is all new to me and it's so funny. Clever. Haven't laughed so much in ages. Feels good.
I remember sitting in the living room with the whole family in front of my dad’s console tv which sat on the floor, watching the hilarity of the farce of life portrayed in Mama’s Family sketches on the Carol Burnett Show and in the spin-off series - such fond memories of the good old days!
This sketch was one of the best ones they did in the 11 years of the show.
So long for now, sweet Betty. See you on the other side. 12-31-21. 😭💔🕊
January 30, 2021 - RIP Betty. You'll be missed.
I’m so use to seeing Betty white as rose nylund so it’s kinda fun to see her as eunice’s snobby sister!
Jacob Farmer I know! Right?? What a phenomenal actress!
Betty is also fantastic as Sue Ann Niven on The Mary Tyler Moore show. I call her the Queen of Shade!! 👑😎
She was actually known for playing these types of characters. That is why she was originally offered the role of Blanche. Rue, who had made a name for herself playing simple minded characters, was originally going to play Rose.
Black-Nerdist that’s interesting. I think they turned out playing the right characters in the end.
True, Betty White usually played snarky, bitchy and unlikable characters.
This one makes my personal top 3 greatest "The Family" sketches of all-time.
This one's right up there with the Gone with the Wind parody.
