"This collection brings back all the very best moments and memories from those 11 hilarious years. I'm so glad to have them all in one place, for the first time, so I can share them with you." - Carol Burnett
We haven't gotten an official announcement from the studio about this, but two weeks ago Time Life began selling a new DVD title for The Carol Burnett Show, to celebrate the program's 50th anniversary! Both of these are available directly from the Time Life store's microsite page for the two items, and full details can be found there. But below we have got a quick list of what's available, and package art for the main 21-DVD deluxe set. Our thanks to the many readers who have sent us tips about this, beginning with "Cory"; we appreciate the emails! Here's what Time Life is offering:
The Carol Burnett Show - The Best Of: 50th Anniversary Deluxe Edition ($199.90 SRP for 21 DVDs): The Carol Burnett Show ran for an incredible 11 seasons and featured some of the most talented entertainers in the history of show business. Now to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the show, this collection includes the best of the best, from all 11 seasons, together for the very first time. Hilarious episodes that haven't been seen since they originally aired, plus some of the most beloved classics.
The Best of The Carol Burnett Show features 60 episodes on 21 DVDs including exclusive new bonus features, all housed in a deluxe collector's box. You'll get: Fan favorite sketches, Elaborate production numbers, mini-musicals, and movie parody presentations. Guest stars Bob Newhart, Don Rickles, Sammy Davis Jr., Lily Tomlin, Phyllis Diller, Flip Wilson, Burt Reynolds, Bernadette Peters, and many more!
Exclusive bonus features including a backstage tour, cast reunion, newly-produced featurettes, never-before-seen outtakes, and exclusive interviews with Carol, Vicki, Tim, Alan Alda, Julie Andrews, Don Rickles, and more! Plus, you'll receive a Collectible Memory Book looking back at each season of the show's amazing 11 year run.
The Carol Burnett Show - The Best Of: 50th Anniversary VIP Signed Edition ($399.95 SRP for 21 DVDs): For a limited time, you can get a VIP Edition - personalized by Carol! You'll get everything included in The Best of The Carol Burnett Show collection, plus your Memory Book will be hand-signed by Carol made out to anyone you choose! Just enter your name or the name of a lucky friend or loved one, and your Guest Book will have a personalized greeting from Carol on the cover!
Each collection is numbered and comes with a certificate of authenticity. Carol will only be signing a limited number of collections, so don't miss out on this opportunity to own this truly one-of-a-kind piece of memorabilia. NOTE: Due to the collectible nature of this item, returns will not be accepted. All sales are final. Please add a few weeks for the processing of your order to allow Carol ample time to sign it to the person of your choice.
UPDATE (5/9): If the above offerings are more than you want, then you'll be pleased to know that there's also a lower-end, "non-deluxe" version of the item. The Carol Burnett Show - The Best Of: 50th Anniversary Edition is an 11-DVD set for $99.95, and comes with 33 episodes. And 22 of those, including the double-length series finale, are completely new to DVD! PLUS it includes the memory book, and bonus features including featurettes, the brand new interview with Carol, and the never-before-seen outtakes. So if you need a more affordable option, this is the one! Our thanks to one of our readers, "Derek," for pointing it out.
