Author Topic: Eps for GSN Harvey Korman tribute? (Read 5222 times)

He and Carol had to carry The Carol Burnett Show by themselves for a few months (it was in the period between when Tim Conway left and when Dick van Dyke joined, and Vicki Lawrence was off having her baby).

Any suggestions on what GSN should show if they decide to have a tribute?

My suggestion would be to air an episode of Super Password, featuring this moment from 1988.

Well if Not , I'll just watch my Celeb Bullseye tape when Comcast crapped out on Chan. 96. (we later found out that it was out old cable that crapped out)

Maybe the MG episode where the Carol Burnett Show cast came in and played for a question?

Very funny segment.

Dick Van Dyke joined as soon as Harvey Korman left. Tim Conway was a replacement for Lyle Waggoner.
I believe there was a one year break between Lyle and Tim.
And I think Dick left a few months into the final season and it was just Carol, Vicki and Tim.

I can remember Korman playing it straight on ABC's Password. He was teammates with his daughter, then a child.

My bad - Dick did replace Harvey. There was definitely a brief time when it was Carol and Harvey on the show, and Vicki had her daughter in May of 1975.

Speaking of Dick, if they didn't have a Dick Martin tribute last week (he died on Saturday the 24th, so it may have been a little late to set one up), maybe they can find something with the two of them together.

They're having one Monday--the GSN LIVE block will carry eps of SP, FF, MG and P+ where he was a guest (and regular eps of CS and J! since Martin was never on those two shows).

What 'Family Feud' was he on? I'm guessing it could have been a Combs 'Funny Men vs. Funny Women' show?

Harvey also appeared on Tattletales, which GSN has access to without having to pay for it. He appeared on TT once with his wife, and once with McLean Stevenson during "Best Friends Week."

Dunno about that, but he did appear on a 1978 Dawson ep, as part of a celebration of Richard's B-Day.
