Apparently, a TV channel called Bravo is running a week of special TV show reunions. Last night, they ran a 2-hour special reunion of the Carol Burnett Show, with all of the cast -- Carol, Vicki Lawrence, Lyle Waggoner, Harvey Corman, and of course Tim Conway.

They spent part of the time talking with the audience and answering questions, and part of it showing clips from some of their favorite (or most embarassing) skits. Much of it was "low humor," and I couldn't care less -- I laughed until I cried, until I couldn't breathe, until my shirt sleeve was wet from drying my eyes, and my sides are still sore this morning!

I think my favorite portions of the show were: A) Getting to see at least part of the "Gone With The Wind" skit again, B) "The Dentist" skit, and C) finding out that it was a regular practice for the cast to have a pool going back in the Green Room -- not for whether or not Tim could make Harvey crack up during a skit, but for how far they would get before it happened!

If they ever put out the original show episodes on DVD, I suspect there will be a huge fight to get to the front of the line. If any of you hear that they've done so, PLEASE let me know ASAP!
