‘The Carol Burnett Show’ was famous for its great comedy writing, and a lot of laughs came from the performers breaking character. Tim Conway and Harvey Korman were known for their inability to stay in character, with Tim often finding ways to make Harvey laugh during their skits.

In Season 2, Episode 20’s sketch ‘The Dentist,’ Tim accidentally stabs himself with a scalpel, causing Harvey to burst into laughter. In Season 8, Episode 19’s ‘The Oldest Doctor,’ Tim’s slow, drawn-out mention of a “koala” makes Harvey crack up. In Season 7, Episode 18’s ‘The Oldest Dresser,’ Tim’s slow movements and another mention of “koala” send Harvey into fits of laughter again.

Tim’s antics, including being carried away on a clothing rack, consistently made Harvey laugh throughout the show. ‘The Carol Burnett Show’ ran from 1967 to 1978 and was known for its hilarious moments, especially between Tim Conway and Harvey Korman.
