Oh this is very sad. Hollywood lost a legend. I have so many fond memories of watching the Carol Burnett Show. He will be missed.

He was so funny on the carol burnett show. I loved when he and the other cast members would start laughing during their skits and couldn't stop. RIP

CM - me too! They could not keep straight faces and you felt as the viewer that you were in on their little joke, a joke within a joke.

One of my favorite CB Show scenes was the Gone With The Wind sketch, with Carol walking down the staircase, with an actual drapery rod attached to the dress made out of drapes. I think it's Harvey Korman who takes her hand as she reaches the floor. Hilarious skit!

I loved that show. I'll always remember him as "Rhett Butler" to Carol's "Scarlett O'Hara".

He was one of the best. He and Tim Conway were a scream together.

Rest In Peace Harvey! Thank you for the laughs and memories.

A great comedian. Mel Brooks has said that he was often unable to keep a straight face with that guy around! He will be missed. :(
