Synopsis
The Carol Burnett Show (1967–1978) is an American variety and sketch comedy series you can watch online on iFILM. CBS ran it for eleven seasons — 278 episodes — and it never wore out its welcome, which is harder to sustain than it looks.
Carol Burnett anchored the show with a repertory company that stayed remarkably stable: Harvey Korman, Vicki Lawrence, Lyle Waggoner and Tim Conway worked together long enough to build real chemistry. They parodied Hollywood melodramas, soap operas and daytime television with deadpan commitment, and were funnier if you knew the source material — but did not require it. Conway and Korman would crack each other up on camera with reliable frequency, and audiences started watching just to catch it happen.
Twenty-five Emmy Awards across eleven seasons. Ranked in TV Guide's 50 greatest shows ever made; listed in Time's 100 best. Stream every episode of The Carol Burnett Show online on iFILM.
