*8==>* Van Dyke looks like he's going to pee himself. If you're cracking *8==>* Van Dyke up, you are a genius by definition.
I've heard that Conway would ad lib this stuff. They would go through rehearsal, he'd hit all the lines and the numbers, and then come taping time BANG, here he comes with some bizarreness that would just kill everybody.
I remember watching that show on Sunday nights at 10:00pm, and I never realized until I was much, much older how absolutely hysterical it was.

Soon to be your local trash man.
I don't play golf anymore. Well, maybe I do sort of. I quit keeping score, started drinkning beer and I started playing better.

Even though it was before my time, I still consider it to be one of the greatest ensemble comedy shows ever. AFAIK our household never missed it.

Mamma's Family? Is it? It looked to me like a clip from the Carol Burnett show.  |
