Please share.  I remember catching half-hour blocks of Carson AND blocks of Carol Burnett (on what I believe was the Family Channel) in my youth.  I'm surprised that hasn't popped up anywhere.

Now, see, I prefer the construct of that one where he leaves the punchline unsaid[/quote]
The beauty of the bit, we all have our favorite "types".  Mine were the ones that really defied traditional punchlines.

"Hey Diddle Diddle"

"How do you greet your Diddle Diddle?"

"Hickory Dickory Dock"

"Who do you go to when you have a pain in your hickory dickory?"

Thanks, Matt...just what I needed...42-damn-years-old and I'm pissing myself...how humiliating!

One of my fave Carnac lines, for obvious reasons:  May a mathematician do a number to your sister.

For a brief time in the past 2-3 years, Comcast carried quite a few episodes within their "On Demand" feature.  It was nice to see them in pristine shape and, of course, without commercial interruption.  I believe I recorded most, if not all, that they offered at the time...now I just have to find those DVDs!

Ah, when yer 70, you'll be fine with it. Might as well get used to the idea now.

I'll try my hand at this...hold your fire. :-P

I have nothing to add...except a picture of the magnificent one himself.

CARNAC:  Ty Pennington.

ED:  Ty Pennington--HAW HAW HAW!

CARNAC:  What do you do when your Pennington's undone?

Since this thread has already drifted away from its original intent, let me take a moment of Moderator Privilege (while remaining on the current topic) to say happy birthday to Carnac's straight man.
