A classic comedy sketch featuring the late Tim Conway and Harvey Korman. As usual Harvey loses it as Tim goes off script.

When I was a kid I admit I watched Carol Burnett. Now I will not watch those reruns no matter what. I always like Harvey Korman who was very funny and a good actor. At this point I can’t watch Tim Conway anymore just like I have a hard time watching certain Jerry Lewis films.
It’s almost too much watching McHale’s Navy reruns if I have to see Tim Conway too much. Things and comedy tastes change and mine did I guess.
‘Once again, actor Tim Conway attacks transgender people with his transphobic portrayal of a man who suddenly gets dog like symptoms from a vaccination shot. Anti-vaxxers of course also point to the skit as being supportive of their cause, showing the unintended consequences to those around those who get vaccinated. Worse, the skit hilights the destruction of neighborhoods for mega shopping malls rather than focusing on affordable housing. F-, wasn't funny, and in very poor taste. Hopefully advertisers will listen to the calls of boycotters before their products are entirely abandoned.’
I never watched Carol Burnett until an adult. I never liked Jerry Lewis, did enjoy Tim’s routines with Joe Flynn because of Joe Flynn, but not so much the rest of his idiotic slapstick on McHale’s Navy.
I appreciate his talent, but only rarely have watched a skit of his twice.
That’s Awesome...nothing funnier than Tim making Harvey lose it!
Bump to watch later.

Tim was really funny!
Thanks! I’d never seen that one. Hilarious.
There really is no cmedy today. I was watching the Laugh In 5year salute (still haven’t finished it) and it was ruined by the 2019 “actors”. They can’t get to the laugh lines without using profanities, using gender (LGBGTQRMNSOP)to force you to smile, politics (as long as it denigrates Trump). No, the genius of Comedy has been lost.
