When Lyle dropped the keys and Harvey hits his hysterically laughing "boss" through the apartment door, well, I laughed as much as any moment in this entire show's run on TV. Sometimes the unscripted, spontaneous moments wind up as the most priceless.

Carol was great. But, I loved watching Harvey and Tim together. This is one of my favorite skits ever! In fact, my wife helped me do something similar in front of my mother- in- law; who is a very proper East coast woman. My wife smushed a large chocolate mousse cream pie in my face and my mother-in-law's reaction was priceless! She stared at me with her hand covering her open mouth and I stared at her through a thick mass of cream filling and pie crust!

After he got the doorbell poorly timed, he op he opens the door. That causes the other guy to come in laughing. Then he drops the keys. Again more laughter as he has to punch him laughing. Carol comes into the scene laughing. She was never meant to smash the cake into his face. But she had to get out of there. She was meant to taste the cake. After she storms out everything was impromptu from there. That's why Carol is forced to ask if it's too sweet. Korman is surprised that she left and decides to jump out the window. But also turned out to be an accident. Certainly the best piece on the Carol Burnett show! If you watch carefully, it's almost mystical how things go wrong after Carol's line, "Ohoh, trouble" at about 2.17, and this trouble only magnifies and blows up!

Talk about something being "so bad it's good." The basic premise for this sketch was one that could have (and, some might say, SHOULD have) worked, but so much went wrong with it once it finally came to be, and yet...LOL! Sheer comedy gold! Thanks for sharing! :)
1:02 That's the most adorable thing I've ever seen a grown man do!
...Carol said THIS skit was her worst in the WHOLE Series, because everything went wrong...for the RIGHT reasons...She said that she was SO flustered by all the mistakes, she ad-libbed 6:37!! ...To be fair, a Variety series that aired as long as "The CB Show" did (1967-1978) is BOUND to have some 'flat' skits, but... the MISTAKES saved this one, and made it a Classic...let's review....: (CONT.) - Harvey spills some of the Martini on Vicki, at 1:51 ... - Vicki's earring falls off (& Harvey notices), at 2:19 ... - The audience feels a bit uncomfortable with Mary's manipulative sabotaging, at 3:00.... - Harvey 'reacts' to the doorbell too early, at 5:19, and the audience catches it.... - Lyle (accidentally) drops his keys at 5:33 , causing fits of laughter for BOTH Men.... - Mary (Carol) KNOWS what just happened, and SHE'S stifling her OWN laughter, at 5:46... - Vicki smacks Harvey with the Cake, causing Harvey AND Carol, to lose it....(6:02)... - ..& when Harvey jumps from the Window, he TRIPS on the ledge, causing Carol to BUST..(6:23) ...AND, the BEST part!??? ..The Director throws the script out the Window, at 6:45!! ...HA-HAAAA!!

I thought it was hilarious
Great skit. It ready tells you how wrong words or actions can lead to major problems.
After he got the doorbell poorly timed, he op he opens the door. That causes the other guy to come in laughing. Then he drops the keys. Again more laughter as he has to punch him laughing. Carol comes into the scene laughing. She was never meant to smash the cake into his face. But she had to get out of there. She was meant to taste the cake. After she storms out everything was impromptu from there. That's why Carol is forced to ask if it's too sweet. Korman is surprised that she left and decides to jump out the window. But also turned out to be an accident. Certainly the best piece on the Carol Burnett show! If you watch carefully, it's almost mystical how things go wrong after Carol's line, "Ohoh, trouble" at about 2.17, and this trouble only magnifies and blows up!
WAHAHAH that's one of the funniests 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 they were all laughing 😂 this is contagious
I loved to watch this show when I was a kid. This type of TV is gone forever. Thanks for posting and taking me back to a magical time.
I sooooooooo wish Carol Burnett had done MORE Mary Worthless skits!!! This could have been a recurring skit like Eunice............
Carol Burnett parodies are the funniest! I love this one, as well as "Cobumble", commercial parodies, "As The Stomach Turns", and so many others!
Leave it to Carol to let us on on what a stinker sketch...and rolling through the mistakes..and she'd had it! Love it.

"Actually, be surprised, because I'm never doing this again!"
Stirring that Martini was funny,this whole skit is better than many shows today! I love Harvey Korman,he is greatly missed!
I would not be able to get through a skit because once I start laughing its all over.How they managed to keep it together as well as they did shows how professional they were.
That was the funniest thing I've seen all year!
Funny skit. LOL Harvey: "Gosh I missed you"
"I'm a " Do-Gooder"" -Mary Worthless
Awesome. I remember watching this with my parents back in the day. Hilarious. Wonderful.
The fact that the whole fell apart at the end made it more hysterical
That is some funny old stuff ...Those people were having a ball!!!!
Carol hated this. It's one of their best skits
I didn't like this sketch the first time, because I thought the mistakes were part of the sketch and I didn't notice how many times they goofed. Now it's the funniest thing I've ever seen!
Sidney Poitier ?!!!!? I laughed to tears !
When she said she wasn't doing this again @6:43, she meant it. LOL! ;)

@ArielCotton I don't think they could have topped this. Kind of like when Saturday Night Live did the Matt Foley sketches. The first one was funny, then they waned after that.
This skit is truly hysterical! I have never seen it before. My one wish is to "die laughing" but via Suicide from a window jump & to be heard laughing on the way down...What a way to go! Too too funny! 🎈
This is one of my favorite sketches.
This is one of the all-time best - thanks for posting!
How hilarious this is!!!!
Proof that these people loved what they did! 🤣
This is hilarious. Thank u for upload. Bless u.

5:34 the point where the actors were pretty much just blocking to get to the end of the skit XD
Some of the best was when the cast busted up 😂
Everyone was cracking up on this one. 😂😂😂
Vickie Lawrence!!👏👏👏👏👏
The way that cake stuck to Korman's face, was just perfect; after that he looked like a talking cake, LOL!

Is he? He nearly never broke up
Mary Worthless: Can I get you two sweet lovebirds something? A nice, super-sweet marriage on the rocks?
Carol said this was intended to be a series and she was supposed to help other people, but she said, she didn't like it. You can tell at the end, when she says don't be surprised if you see me on your door step, better yet, be surprised, because I won't be doing this again.
I can't say enough about this one..
Comedy of Errors
LOL john that was a riot i was in stitches
Loves Vicky’s dress
LOL, she said she is going to help them whether they like it or not....LOL
I love it when they lose their composure!!! :D :D ♥♥
I have pain the corners of my mouth and my cheeks are swollen from being bunched up. My eyes are watering too. DAMN! My wife is such a cheating LUSH!
Does anybody else see the chair moving at 3:10?
1:02 Harvey Korman lol!! And Vicki Lawrence is especially adorable at 1:43
Classic!!
This is what I call "stirring the stew!"
So funny!!
5:21 is when it starts to break up XD
Unfortunately we don’t have decent tv anymore. Growing up with these shoes and people made it better. Poor kids now have garbage programs with reality shows, the trash Kardashians and soap plots that recycle the same people as lovers and marriages. Pitiful and in creative minds in the 21st century
It almost looks like the idea behind Mary Worthless was ripped off by Saturday Night Live with "Church Lady"

abacab87: If I remember correctly, it's a parody of an actual news paper comic strip.I can't remember the actual name, Mary worth or something like that.
Love this so much.
Lyle Waggoner! 👏👏👏👏
@1:02 😂😂😂😂 someone's excited
2:19...her earring fell off!
they just can't hold it together on this skit
Becuase bringing happiness is the only thing that makes me happy. Also her: Proceeds to destroy a marriage while in the process also makes the husband commit suicide........ Thats what i call happiness
carol said recently in an interview that she hated this skit because it bombed so terribly. go figure.
Am i the only one that noticed the chair move when carol pours the drink into the flowers
lol; very funny sketch!!!!
gosh this is the best!
