My favorite characters were Dorf and Mr. Tuddball off of the Carol Burnett show.

Tim and Harvey together were a lethal combo. Harvey once admitted in an interview that Tim made him wet his pants during a live taping on the Carol Burnett Show. It was during the "Dentist" sketch, and Tim just kept pushing and pushing the envelope. Harvey said he was just lucky he was wearing dark slacks.

"Watch the clip," he said, " you can tell when it happens. ". (7:18)
:D

You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.

He did some really funny routines and his comedic timing and antics were probably the reason that McHale's Navy was such a hit. Certainly Carol Burnett and Harvey Corman weren't able to contain themselves during the skits on her show. RIP another blast from the past!!! The hits just keep on coming.

Simply one of the best.

Some of the best ever laughs on TV. Carol Burnett and Harvey Korman trying to stay on script while Conway runs amok...brilliant.

I like what Carol once said.

Tim's purpose in life was to "destroy" Harvey Korman.

He will be missed. He was one of the greatest.

He recently did commercial clips for ME TV for those familiar with the channel.

So many great memories from both those shows. They don't make them like any of those folks, anymore.

We will never see the likes again. Pure comedy; no political message, no mean spirit, just laughs. RIP and thanks.

Tim, Carol, Vicky, and Harvey...
Mama's Family skits, always a mistake to try and eat or drink while watching.
Who'd a thunk you could get that range with a mouthful of chocolate chip and milk? :shock:

RIP Tim. He had the real talent to make folks laugh and feel good. I have watched some of his you tube skits from the old days and laugh every time like the first time seeing them. Watch this one.
