    This was my late mother's all time favorite show. She had a rough time in her life. She was widowed at a young age and she couldn't afford to go out for entertainment so she stayed in and of all the shows on TV this is the one she watched religiously. It was her escape from the world for an hour a week. Of course since she was watching it her five children were also watching it. I was the oldest and fairly young so much of the humor was lost on me until later. Now looking back it's one of my favorites as well and every time I watch this show either in re-runs or on the internet like here I am reminded of those evenings so many years ago sitting around our little black and white TV watching this show together. Thank you Carol Burnett!

      I too was brought up by a widowed mother in this era and likewise saw this show bring her temporary escape and joy. We had true treasures back then and as life goes on and the world grows less familar, l remain grateful for these memories.

    What makes this more awesome is that this sketch includes Harvey Korman and Madeline Kahn, who are BOTH regulars in Mel Brooks films. Makes me wish that Mel himself had guest starred on the Carol Burnett show. The funny meter would have gone off the charts.

      OMGosh, I’d totally forgotten about Eunice on the Gong Show. I remember seeing it originally, not sure what year it was, mid 70s perhaps, it was later in the series because The Family” sketch had been on for awhile, and we knew all the characters really well.
      Eunice on The Gong Show was when worlds collide. I really remember so well wondering how the sketch was going to end. Another humiliation of Eunice? Eunice again being the butt of the joke? Or maybe Eunice having, until now, an undiscovered Barbra Streisand vocal quality that finally found its way out? When Eunice started singing horribly a horrible song, completely convinced she DID have a Babs thing going on, gets instantly gonged, and the camera simply closed in on her face, which was a study in total devastation, and didn’t change while the camera either irised out completely, or the spotlight dimmed out, I just remember being so sad for her, and thinking how brave Carol and her crew were to end the scene like that, no gag, no joke, just a very human moment.

    My little brother and I loved watching This show with our oldest Sister Susie. She didn't know how wonderful this show was. We practically begged to watch The Carol Burnett show when she had her Television. She never let us watch. But when we got our own Television we laughed and laughed at Carol Burnette's show, Mama and Eunice. She would walk into the room asking what are we watching cause there was nothing on television that day. We said, "The Carol Burnette show." She hurries into the living room to watch it. My brother and I looked at each other thinking that she never wanted to watch the show when she was the only one with a television acting snotty with us. A couple of times all three of us watched the show together. There was laughter all the time as we watched. After that we got along with her some-what because of the Carol Burnette show, we all had something that we had in common we all had some kind of a friendship. Those were the days.
