I have to thank my mother for something and introducing me to this show was one of them. Lots of great memories.
Rest in Peace Mr. Korman.

Wow, this one really hurts. I'm glad he did what he did for the world and brought me a gabillion laughs over my whole life. He was easily in the top 5 all time funniest comedians ever.

In an interview on the Blazing Saddles DVD there is an interview in which he said he always liked it when someone would say... "Hey look! There's Heady Lamar!" and he would gladly answer "That's HEADLY! Headly Lamar!"

I always wanted to do that if I saw him in person..

Damn... :( Time to put on Saddles...

Back when on Saturday night, it was more fun to stay home with Carol Burnett and Bob Newhart and Mary Tyler Moore. Harvey, R-I-P, thanks for all the laughs and I can never have Rasinettes and not think of Hedly Lamarr

My parents were the same (though we'd also watch the Mel Brooks stuff). I adored his style and timing.

:(

I'll always love Harvey for his performance as The Great Gazoo on the Flintstones...

I also have fond memories of his role in Buck Henry's First Family (a quick scan shows that this isn't out on DVD... why?). His "chi-chi or la-la?" line is still a staple in my house.

G'bye Harvey. Thanks for the laughs.

I recongize pictures of him, of course, but looking at his resume it appears the only significant credits of his I've seen more recently than when I was a pre-teen are History of the World, Part I and High Anxiety.

I don't think I've ever seen so much as an episode of The Carol Burnett Show though I've certainly seen individual skits replayed.

Lani, however, made rare mention of a celebrity death on this one.

Oh! This I did not know! Loved The Great Gazoo!

Did he do the voice of Gazoo for the live action/cgi Flintstone film? If not, shame on the producers!

This made me very sad. The irony is I just watched a infomercial selling the Carol Burnett show yesterday and laughed a lot with them. Now it makes me miss him even more. RIP, my friend!

I guess I should go make sure Tim Conway is still alive. I loved those two together, they made me bust a gut as a child.

Tim Conway is still alive. The big shock is that handsome straight man Lyle Waggoner is 73 and looks it. The bigger shock is that for about half of his run on the Carol Burnett Show, Harvey Korman was younger than I am now.

Harvey was looking his age at the end.
