Lucy and Carol are two of the funniest women in history.

To anyone in the future who, like me, was perplexed by the sketch that starts at 12:16, it's riffing on old tv commercials. The hand punching her out of the washing machine is referencing "Colgate Punch Detergent", the crown out of the fridge is "Imperial Margarine" (it 'puts a crown on your head'), the pigeons are "Dove Dish Washing Detergent" where the Dove brand soap bottle kept turning into a bird and flying to the kitchen from the bathroom (because it can be dish and hand soap), and finally she's impaled by a knight's lance from the "Ajax Laundry Detergent" commercial (the knight rides by some oil workers wearing dirty clothes and his lance magically cleans them).

Harvey flippin Korman.... Dude.... GENIUS! He was Carols favorite comedian... She has said so for decades. Pure brilliance ✨✨✨

To see both of these comedic female geniuses on stage at the same time is extradentary. Thank you for posting this. They both stand shoulder to shoulder in their own right.

I really liked watching Vicki dance the way they did back then. This is an episode I've never seen before. What a treat!

Thank you Carol and the rest. 55 years later and you gave me a smile.

Carol just turned 90. I wish her many many more. Wish Lucy was still around.

I'm up to the car rental sketch and now I know the answer to the question, what happens when three of the greatest comedic minds on earth go onstage together. Pure, unadulterated genius!

If this was in 1967 I wasn't even born yet. I was born in 1968. But I grew up watching the Carol Barnett show. I loved it and I still love watching the reruns. ❤

Belly Up to the Bar Boys is one of my favorite songs! It’s from the Unsinkable Molly Brown play/film! Awesome show!

I start smiling when the show starts...and I grin all through it!😊

Thank you so very much for this great episode!

Wow Gloria was so young she played Liz on Dool from 80-86

Wow-wee!!! "Heaven, I'm in Heaven and my 💜 beats so that I can hardly 🙊" Loved it so very much! Even better than the episode with Barbara Eden, though that one was great 👍too! But nothing beats Lucille Ball performing with Carol Burnett👏👏 I'm watching this in Australia 🦘 on Saturday night the 17th of June, 2023. Also enjoyed seeing a very young Gloria Loring sing two songs. Gloria went on to play Liz Chandler, in "Days of Our Lives", in the 1980's. Gloria also scored a No 2 Hit Song on the Billboard Music 🎶🎵 Charts in 1986, with the song "Friends and Lovers", performed with Carl Anderson, Patch and Kayla's theme song on "Days of Our Lives." Also recorded by Carl Anderson alone. Love from Australia 🦘 💕💞💗💖

TV was never Free. They had commercials even on The Gary Moore Show, where Carol made her debut. But remember in the 1970s when PBS not only was free, but a half hour program lasted for 30 minutes, no commercials, and no previews of coming shows.

I forgot what a cute flirt Carol was until I watch these episodes. ❤️💋

Look at Mama up there gettin her gogo groove on!

I adore Carol.

And to think this is the same Vicki Lawrence who, ten years later, would cement her place in history when she countered Tim Conway's ad libbing in a "Eunice" skit with those immortal words from Mama: "You sure that asshole's through?" LOL

Carol Burnett is so Genuine !!!

Beautiful singing

" we have breaking news!.....the news machine is broken, ". Yes? No?

If this is how Carol deals with Super Guy, imagine Lois Lane dealing with Superman and his super powers!

Cafe Argentine is funny because apparently there were Nazies that went to live in the "west if Argentina" after the war ended, as it is also mentioned here.

It is not a theory. The Nazi party began planning for the fact of their defeat long before D day. Aided by the Catholic church they did indeed make good their escape to south America. It would be naive to believe they have given up on the plan they tried twice to complete.
