I liked the first reunion special they did in the mid-90s and the funniest sketch that had me dying was Harvey and Tim at the dentist's office. The latter is a new dentist and keeps accidentally injecting novocaine into himself as poor Harvey is strapped to the chair and at the mercy of Tim. <<jasmine7: Hehe, yep, those are great moments, 5BR. BTW, one little trivia item: Raisinets are Mel Brooks' favorite treat.>> See, that's the problem with all these escaped convicts and other naughty people...if they would just take the time to buy some Raisinets as they're being chased by the police...I'm sure OJ would have benefitted if he had AC to stop at 7-11 and grab a Big Gulp and a few Slim Jims... High Anxiety is one that I haven't seen from beginning to end, but it was funny how Harvey was Cloris Leachman's little boytoy, and at the end he says "I never liked her...she never bathed!" lol!

Even though Harvey did appear on the first season of The Muppet Show, I think he would have benefitted if he was a co-guest with Tim. He was only in one good sketch...

Just the absolute funniest moment is when he asks Bart, who's disguised as a Klansman, what his qualifications are: Bart: Stampeeding cattle. Hedley: That's not much of a crime. B: Through the Vatican? H: . . . Kinky! Sign here.

WoW.>> It's The Best of the Carol Burnett Show; Carol has hand-picked two of her favorite episodes from each season (so 22 eps in all I guess). According to the infomercial, all the shows are uncut and shown in their original broadcast form. The "Went With the Wind" sketch is featured in the collection; Carol also remarks that it's nice to finally have the entire sketch, as opposed to it being cut down when shown in syndication. It also showed some of the outtakes where Tim would be "normal" in front of Harvey for the rehearsals and then completely do a 180 for the live audience to, as Carol said, "destroy Harvey".

Count de Money: Don't get saucy with me, Bernaise! The Boy: Oui, oui monsieur? Count de Money: Yes, a lot!
