Harvey Korman, dead at 81
2008-05-30
comedic genius with Carol Burnett, Tim Conway (*), and Mel Brooks.

* - this skit was one of his funniest. Experienced as a child, I still remember my Dad literally crying tears of laughter, and how good that made me feel. RIP, Harvey

#6  I'm so glad we had this time together,
Just to have a laugh, or sing a song.
Seems we just get started and before you know it
Comes the time we have to say, “So long".

#4  Here's Tim Conway's story about the elephant on the Carol Burnett Show. It doesn't have Harvey Korman, but it'll still have you in stitches. The rest of the cast was so close to laughter couldn't say anything for five minutes!

#3  Aaaawwww, my favorite scene in BLAZING SADDLES was his bath skit wid the toy ducky.

Harvey and so many others should've been declared LIVING NATIONAL TREASURES while still alive for their take on Americana.

Good nite, Funny Man.

#2  He was one of the great ones. Could hardly suppress a smile during the Carol Bernett show. And who could forget him in 'Blazing Saddles'....

He will be missed.
