Goodness! This Carol Burnett Skit Was Hysterical!!!

A man in a brown robe sits on a couch, holding a drink, while a woman in a plaid coat and hat stands nearby.

George and Zelda bicker even in a Wild West fantasy in this classic sketch from The Carol Burnett Show.

George and Zelda rarely get along, but this classic sketch from The Carol Burnett Show takes their disagreements beyond their living room and into the realm of fantasy.

All George wants to do is enjoy his favorite western on television, but Zelda wants him to see her new nightgown. Of course, a hilarious argument follows.

A woman in an orange dress and feathered hat is speaking to a man in a cowboy hat, who is raising his hand.

George decides the best way to escape is to step into a Wild West daydream, becoming the local sheriff – and of course having the time of his life at the saloon.

But even in daydreams, he cannot escape Zelda, who shows up and breaks up the party. She ultimately dispatches the town desperado.

It is vintage George and Zelda, proving that their marriage – the good and the bad – will continue with outrageous arguments and clever lines even into the world of dreams.

If Carol Burnett brought you joy in the past, it's still around on AmazonAd now. A purchase through us means we get to keep doing what we love and paying for cat food too.
