What a funny dude! I cannot count or recall how many tmes he made me laugh. I remember on the Carol Burnett Show skits with him and Tim Conway. Tim would do something and Harvey would try his hardest not to bust out laughing. He would tear up. He would return the favor to Tim next scene or skit.

Rest in Peace.
 
RIP

That dude was seriously and consistently funny. Can't say that about too many people. Even though I don't recall seeing him much in years, he's already missed.

He's dead as a ******* door nail, but he sure was funny when he was alive. And fortunately a lot of that made it on film/tape.

what a great comedic actor. Never the big star but solid when it came to hitting the supporting role. Can't imagine the Carol Burnett show or Blazing Saddles w/o him. Even History of the World was greatr because of him.

You'll never find a combo of talent between him and Tim Conway in their heydey that will crack me up as much as they did on the CB show. RIP

What a crappy week. First Sydney Pollack and now Harvey Korman?

He was the reason I watched the Carol Burnet show.

What a giant.

We are truly the worse for him leaving this world.

But I'm buoyed by the memories of him and his sketches. The dentist one was also the first one that came to mind. Watching him try to hold it together in vain, and then lose it completely, made it so much funnier.

Rest in peace, good sir, you have truly earned it.
 
funniest sketch i ever saw with harvey and tim is one that i haven't found online yet. they wer on a bomber during wwII. i forget the story, but tim was supposed to have a map of where to go to drop their bombs. well, he ends up with it drawn on his belly and he pulls his shirt up so harvey can read it. as harvey is bending down to look at this map, tim slowly pulls his shirt up a little higher to reveal that he had drawn a pair of eyes on his nipples. korman notices this and just starts shaking, trying to hold it together. watching him do that made me crack up. later in the scene, conway goes off camera to retrieve something from the cockpit, leaving harvey on stage by himself. he begins to lose it again, and i've always wondered what tim did off camera that he had to stand out there and watch.

anyone recall this sketch?
