Carol Burnett is as funny today as she was back in 1967 when the question and answer session took place on her show. Carol answered questions like, “Is it true that you only need to be beautiful to be on TV?” She loved this question that implied that she was beautiful because she was on TV. She blew kisses to the man who asked the question for several minutes while the audience couldn’t stop laughing.
I didn’t realize that Carol was such a flirt back when I saw this show, but as a mature woman, I can see how she flirts with men in the audience. Dancing around, growling like a tigress, and flirting are all very obvious.
Watching Carol’s show was a break from daily life. It was a time to laugh, and seeing her for yourself in a video today is still a comforting break.
A woman asked her if she could get a doorknob in her mouth, and Carol’s hilarious response was, “I guess, but I want to see if I can get a gag in yours!”
When a kid asked her how long she had been in show business, Carol responded, “a long time.” The cameraman added “a long, long, long time” from the background. She surely had a healthy attitude about herself, as shown by the question, “Carol, how do you keep your figure?” She answered, “No one else wants it!”
