FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DURING HARVEY KORMAN'S 10-SEASON RUN ON THE CAROL BURNETT SHOW, THE WILDLY-TALENTED COMIC ACTOR WAS TV'S TOP SECOND BANANA... THE CAROL BURNETT SHOW: THE BEST OF HARVEY KORMAN THIS AUGUST 1, JOIN TIME LIFE IN CELEBRATING HIS PRODIGIOUS TALENTS WITH A NEW COLLECTION OF DVDS FEATURING EPISODES NOT SEEN IN MORE THAN 40 YEARS! During his 10-season run on The Carol Burnett Show, Harvey Korman was television's top second banana, with multiple Emmy Awards and a Golden Globe to prove it. He was fearless: he sang, he danced, he ad-libbed, he pranced, and he made TV audiences roar with laughter. No sketch, drama or musical number was safe once Harvey entered the scene - either from his prodigious talents, or the probable cast crack-up to come! Perfect for fans old or new, THE CAROL BURNETT SHOW: THE BEST OF HARVEY KORMAN is a brand-new single DVD featuring three (out of four) rare episodes, which haven't seen the light of day in more than 40 years. Showcasing some of Korman's most memorable on-screen moments, home audiences will howl with delight as he slips into a Hugh Hefner-style fantasy to indulge his ego, goes way over the top as a conga player and singer supporting Carol's Carmen Miranda character, and outdoes himself donning a sequined dress and heels for an Andrews Sisters takeoff with Carol and Vicki Lawrence. THE BEST OF HARVEY KORMAN is a time capsule history of comedic genius, and home audiences will enjoy: Classic long-running sketches "V.I.P.," "Carol and Sis," and "The Old Folks" Carol cracking up at Harvey falling on his rear in a Carmen Miranda takeoff, and Tim Conway's "Oldest Man" safecracker cracking up Harvey during a jewelry heist Harvey as the President in a casual, spontaneous "Fireside Chat" with the First Family A very vocal Harvey Korman Fan Club who track him to his dressing room And Harvey in full drag, lip-syncing to the Andrews Sisters...all to benefit the PTA! Plus guest stars Sid Caesar, Diahann Carroll, Tim Conway, Ella Fitzgerald, Bernadette Peters, and Nancy Wilson THE CAROL BURNETT SHOW: THE BEST OF HARVEY KORMAN Street Date: August 1, 2017 DVD SRP: $12.95 Format: DVD/Single Running Time: 178 minutes Genre: TV DVD/Comedy Aspect Ratio: 1.33:1 Audio: Stereo
