Tim Conway was a comedic genius! I remember watching these at my grandparent's house and of course I didn't understand them, but as an adult I realize you have to be in on the joke. They are constantly trying to make each other laugh. Absolutely hilarious!
Yes. Only Tim could manage to extend the same gag far longer than intended, keep the audience laughing, and then have a punch line not in the script to top it off. Ad libbed physical and verbal comedy at the same time. Apparently, even the carpet shtick was not scripted because Petula lost it.
Absolute truth, my friend! I grew up watching The Carol Burnett Show with my parents! The show was funny then as it is still today! It will be a truly sad day when Carol dies! She's a legend, icon, and truly one of the great talents/comedians.....EVER!!
The most incredible thing about Tim Conway is his athletic prowess, like sitting down in a chair slowly with one leg crossed over the other, and falling over in that chair, on his wrist, holding a phone, and twisting that chair around and up and over the couch. It would be hard for the limberest of kids to do all that without getting hurt! Say nothing of making it look easy and natural.👏🏆
My family looked forward to this show every week! Love it. ♥ I wish I could find a complete collection of The Carol Burnett Show in stores. It's about time that they release them to the public. That is Petula Clark I think guest starring. Love her too.
The genius part of Conway is that he would do something funny... and continue doing it until it becomes unfunny... then he would continue with it until it goes beyond funny, and becomes hilarious.
You nailed that right on the head. He was fearless...a comedic genius. The very fact that the producers, directors, Carol and company and studio executives gave him free rein with very little knowledge of his plans. More than anything I would
I think the people who wrote this are good. I mean if you look at it, really, the people on soap operas live like the kind of people that walk through life causing problems for themselves.
Recently found Carol's book entitled memoirs. Carol seems to have had a very odd life when compared to those of us who had the traditional all American home life. I am very appreciative of the fact that Carol came to be as she is today and in her day. I do not know any dirt and I wonder if there was ever any. She seems to be clean and wholesome as you can be for the acting industry.
Yeah. Back in the day being gay was kinda frowned upon. So to keep their moral standards for the public eye one often got married and had kids even just to make themselves seem heterosexual. Rock Hudson and Errol Flynn come to mind as a couple examples. If it was nowadays they would all be flouncing around like they should have been back then.
Aw, I loved this! I recall watching the Carol Burnett Show as a young kid. The Show's, "As The Stomach Turns" skits were especially funny! I am sure that I saw this when it first aired, but I was happily surprised (now re-watching decades later) to see the lovely singer-actress Petula Clark suddenly pop in. "Pet Clark" made the 1960's ("British Invasion") music scene what it was. (It wasn't fully about the Beatles). Cheers to all! P.S. As an added thought, for those who may be younger, look up (here on RUclips), Petula Clark on a live television broadcast from 1966 - appearing on the "Ed Sullivan Show," singing "Sign of the Times." A fun clip with great classic sport-cars as a back-drop. (Petula was lovely and in great voice!) One of the dancers (during the number) even loses his hat - well such was live-TV back in the day. (You'll not see something like this today).
And just five years ago, Ms. Clark was playing the Bird Woman in the London production of the stage musical of Mary Poppins...at age 87. Last year, she took part in a Sondheim tribute. 85 years in show business.
I absolutely love this sketch!!! Thank you so much for uploading it, do you have any other As the Stomach Turns sketches? They are some of my favorites!
you can hear tim conway click the seat belt that was attached to the chair before he does his routine which was hilarious. You can actually see the belt at his waist when he ends up against the wall
"The music had gone out of her life" ... "The MUSIC had GONE OUT of her LIFE" *baseball ending* Of the three 'As the Stomach Turns' sketches available on RUclips, this is the best one.
Tim Conway was a hilarious, funniest comedian ever on the Carol Burnett Show. He's terrible but everyone loves him so much, RIP Tim Conway. Your fans will say that you are making poor Harvey Korman laugh hysterically in the comedy in the sky.
Petula 'Pet' Clark....age 9 in in 1942, during a bombing raid in London, she was asked by the BBC to sing to a jittery audience; she sang Mighty Lak' a Rose....and never looked back. She's still around and, I would guess, still singing! Check out her 1955 version on You Tube, with Edmundo Ros. Good health Pet!
This is one of my favorite series of Carol Burnett Show sketches! I only wish they were all uploaded on to RUclips ~ does anyone know where to find the full collection?
Do you realize the amount of physical control needed to perform that roll across the stage in the chair? I have considered that as the other funniest skit with The Dentist.
Hahahaha! I love it when Carol loses it and walks out of the shot because of Tim... Her reactions are just as funny as the gag itself!
RIP Tim, Harvey & others! Entire cast & crew = comedy gold! TY for these beloved classics mraudio!
Haha I've heard Carol talking about this one.... I just love the resigned look she gets when she realises Tim is going to go on and on with the laugh!
Carol exists right with laughter classic CBS!
And then her reaction when he said "don't you get it."

Why don’t they make this kind of comedy today!! It’s the absolute best!!
Because everything offends somebody. So all they can do now is be vicious.
You should look up Studio C. Its similar and hilarious!

They do...
If only the real soap operas were this good.
Almost a minute of laughing and then..."Don't ya get it?"
SO HILARIOUS!!!!!
You know he's a comedic genious when he can keep someone laughing for three minutes just by laughing.
I love how they hide their faces when they're laughing at each other's antics
The frightening part is that this makes
More sense than most soap operas
True!😂

@@patriciamariemitchel Or him falling down the stairs in slow motion!! One of my favs! 🤣

That line was smooth!

"Don't you get it?" + Carol's reaction = The true definition of comic timing.
Jerry Lewis once said of Carol that she had impeccable comedic timing 👍
@@lindaeasley4336 absolutely! Who would know better then the brilliant comedian Jerry Lewis!
9:08 This is perfection.
@@therealmeemawmallen9493 than
I wish they would put the reruns back on tv then I would watch it. This was pure comedy. Gotta love Tim Conway !
Love this video! Love both carol burnett and petula Clark since the 1960s!
I think they're equally amazing. They're both amazing actresses and performers.
Miss Burnett’s timing and facial expressions are unbelievable.. so funny!!
Love seeing Petula Clark in this skit!
You can tell by her reaction on her face,Carol knew it was coming and it did!!!lol!!!best ever!!!
+jmferrer1 Just Eat Your PopCorn.
“My problem is....I don’t have a problem!” *bites finger* “ow...now I do!” Lmao 😂
I can't believe Carol let Harvey get away with saying her uncle had "posthumously died" 😆

Well said…read my mind..
🎉vfs
❤😂🎉 Yep!
There's nobody like Tim Conway God love him!
He is the second Stan Laurel.
This has always been my favorite sketch from the show 💕
I think the people who wrote this are good. I mean if you look at it, really, the people on soap operas live like the kind of people that walk through life causing problems for themselves.
Oh Lord, his delayed laugh😂😂 It's me!! 😂
Tim rolling around with that chair, up on the couch. I've never seen that before in any other show.
I loved watching this in the 1970s with my mom! It was a lot of fun!! 😆
Once Tim gets started on the phone, you can just see the point where Carol is probably thinking in her head, "It begins." LOL!
When last we left Kenoga Falls, the amnesia epidemic had been completely forgotten
Wasn't it Canoga?

This was SICK!!! Harvey could play gay very well for a straight man.
Hate to break it to ya, but be was gay in real life.
@@jerryleroy9187 Really? I wouldn't think a gay man would willingly have 4 kids with 2 different women.
Yeah. Back in the day being gay was kinda frowned upon. So to keep their moral standards for the public eye one often got married and had kids even just to make themselves seem heterosexual. Rock Hudson and Errol Flynn come to mind as a couple examples. If it was nowadays they would all be flouncing around like they should have been back then.
@@faeriebility Some guys are/were prev
Some times life's circumstances and our own denial prevent guy's from coming out until much later in life...
Tim & that chair OMG he's too much
Conway was humming "When I'm Calling You" as he entered.
Carol was the perfect ringleader of this remarkable comedy troop
“But now!” *SLAM* “Ow!” Lmao 😂 that was my favorite part lmao 😂
I've seen every Carol show, but I'm enjoying reliving my teens.
I was just a little girl when i watched the show. Tim conway had me rolling on the floor with laughter!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
If I'm not mistaken, that's Petula Clark in this skit with Carol & Tim
One of the best! Love you forever Carol!
That funny Part is when Carol turns around and Tries not to laugh and when she comes back Tim Conway says Get it Carol Laughs then walks away funny
And I can't believe how lucky I was to have watched, loved & appreciate this kind of comedy. Violence has changed us
thank you for uploading. luv this show and watching this brightened up and many others' day.

Funny to see Vicki Lawrence play Carol's daughter.
I absolutely love this sketch!!! Thank you so much for uploading it, do you have any other As the Stomach Turns sketches? They are some of my favorites!
That fall with the chair !!! 😂😂😂
Wonderful upload... Tim in fine form as usual!
you can hear tim conway click the seat belt that was attached to the chair before he does his routine which was hilarious. You can actually see the belt at his waist when he ends up against the wall
Too great! One can only hope that the Dark Shadows of humanities past Dynasty are finally gone like J.R. on Dallas! 😉
"Who killed J.R.?"
I read Tim Conway's autobiography. He said when he was a young man, he injured his back and had to walk like the old man for a month. He remembered it
That's one of my favorite books- I read it for school this year and it's now on my bookshelf to stay
If you listen closely when Tim is on the phone, you can hear Harvey laughing off stage.
8:20 the single laugh at the end him?
You sure can 😆
And the lady is Petula Clark. Known for her hit: Downtown
I thought that was her. Thank you for posting that!
RIP Tim and Harvey
Two comedy geniuses!❤🥰🙌
"The music had gone out of her life"
...
"The MUSIC had GONE OUT of her LIFE"
*baseball ending*
Of the three 'As the Stomach Turns' sketches available on RUclips, this is the best one.
No, anything with Harvey Korman as Mother Marcus was HILARIOUS!!!!😅😎
There are more now. Even a controversial one with Nancy Wilson and Lucille Ball. Loved it.
X) Love the way Harvey talks
"what have you been doing for a month? Dialing"
Give the organist a raise
❤😂🎉 Still now 2024 .
Is it just me, or does it sound like Harvey is laughing when Tim is going on and on with the laugh?
she had to run offstage to keep from laughing like crazy and frankly, i don't blame her!

Carol Burnett is Lucille Ball's successor.
I think she was funnier than Lucille Ball!!!🤔🙌👍
Apparently Lucy seemed to think so too. I read they were very good friends
Wow Tim Conway was in great shape to make it seem like such a cash rol 👍😲👍
Tim Conway introduced the early age of cell phone technology on a cord!
Laugh out loud funny! Tim Conway is too funny.😂
Corruption, indecency, adultery and bigamy and infidelity. Ah those were the days.
my favorite soap opera
she had to run offstage to keep from laughing like crazy
I think Carol looks great in this scene.
😅 ah Carol just walks out of frame for a breather then comes back and he hits her with “you don’t get it” 😅😅😅😅
1:50 I use this line ALL THE TIME now!
A hermit crab came to mind with Tim in the chair.

If soap operas were more like this i'd have started watching them a long time ago
I miss those days of obscene phone calls - darn that caller ID!
"but now" *slams hands on table* "awouh"
Love tim Conway also! He is hilarious!
Pure Genius !!!
So nice getting to see Petula Clark in her heyday.
I still love them. I bet Tim went home with some nasty bruises sometimes.
Freelance bellhop? Why wasn't that in an actual soap opera?
Oh I’m afraid I’m the bearer of good tidings 😂😂😂
This is one of my favorite series of Carol Burnett Show sketches! I only wish they were all uploaded on to RUclips ~ does anyone know where to find the full collection?
"Even my obscene phone calls have stopped...mine too."
remembered are the beginning when there was a true real connection...as years passed the filth infiltrated in and they all still laughed.
could you imagine the day with tim conway AND carol burnett? that would be insanely awesome.
Do you realize the amount of physical control needed to perform that roll across the stage in the chair? I have considered that as the other funniest skit with The Dentist.
Petula Clark!
"Don't you get it?"
*DEAD*
"Phase Four?"
Political reference! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incomes_policy
So it's like Mama's Family at the end.
Conway is CRAY!!!
I love petula and carol together
They were the best. Comedy died after this era
0:07 The Gospel According to Charles Darwin How we suffer from good Health!
"what does she look like?" "well, she's alive.." hehehe
There will never be another Tim Conway. Fred Armisen and Bill Hader from SNL have a similar charm but there could only be one of his kind.
