S7 E3 • with Gloria Swanson

Gloria Swanson swoons over Lyle · An elevator operator in Carol and Roger's new apartment building has a crush on her in another "Carol & Sis" sketch · Gloria Swanson sings · Molly and Burt (Carol and Harvey) talk about the effects of age · Vikki and Carol have a musical number · A sketch about the difficulty of having an affair · The Charwoman meets Charlie Chaplin (guest Gloria Swanson) Gloria Swanson's appearance on The Carol Burnett Show was due to a fan letter. The fan letter was written by Gloria Swanson- to Carol Burnett. The silent-screen legend had been Carol in a sketch as Nora Desmond, the CBS star's takeoff on faded film star Norma Desmond, Swanson's memorable character in director Billy Wilder's Sunset Boulevard (1950). "And so we got Miss Swanson to come on the show because she wrote me a letter and said she'd gotten a kick out of it," Carol says. Swanson, 76, when she appeared on this show, sings and dances her way through "I've Been Around" and "A New Fangled Tango." She returns for the touching "Silents is Golden" number, in which Carol's Charwoman character imagines herself in a silent movie with Charlie Chaplin (Played by Swanson)

Throughout the long run of the Carol Burnett Show, regular Harvey Korman appeared in a number of films, including Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles and High Anxiety. Also cast as a con artist in the 1974 musical version of Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn, Harvey performs "Royalty," a song from that movie, during this seventh-season episode. Guest star Eydie Gorme sings "Take One Step," and another of Carol's friends, Paul Sand, plays a nervous newlywed in the skit titled "Honeymoon Sweet." The two guest stars join Carol, Harvey, Vicki Lawrence and Lyle Waggoner for a "Salute to Movie Series" number that includes spoofs of Dr. Kildare, The Cisco Kid, Tarzan and The Wolf Man (with Carol and Paul as a lost couple wandering into a castle where they encounter Eydie as an old woman and Vicki as a gypsy fortune teller).

S7 E6 • with Ken Berry, Jack Weston, Tim Conway

Jack Weston, who later co-starred with Carol Burnett in Alan Alda's The Four Seasons (1981), appears in three comedy sketches during this seventh-season show: "Computer Date," about two nervous people bonding over world's record; "The Operation," about marital miseries mirthfully making a mockery of medicine; and "Ethel Herman," with Carol as the title character, a bigger-than-life singer at a small-time supper club. Another gust star, frequent visitor Ken Berry, gets to show his moves as both a physical comedian and a hoofer (the song-and-dance number "It's Not Where You Start" features the former F-Troop star performing the tune in several different styles and costumes). And the movie parody had Harvey Korman's Dr Jekyll turning into Carol's Ms. Hyde.

S7 E9 • with Petula Clark, Tim Conway

This seventh-season episode of The Carol Burnett Show features two frequently revisited premises for skits. First, Carol and Harvey KIorman play their low-rent ham actors, Funt and Mundane, who are appearing in a play before a full house. Unfortunately, Carol has stepped on her contact lenses and sat on her glasses, leaving her almost blind on stage. Then, later in the show, we return to Canoga Falls for another installment of the soap-opera spoof "As the Stomach Turns." Guest stars Petula Clark and Tim Conway are in on the soapy fun,, Tim breaking up Carol as his Old Man character making obscene phone calls. Tim then aims his improvisational skills at Harvey, breaking him up in a bit about airline security. Clark sings "Silver Spoon" and takes part in the musical finale, a salute to the 1950's and '60's.

S7 E12 • The Australia Show

·This is one of two episodes of Carols's show filmed outside of the U.S. (a 1970 show was filmed in England) Carol and the regulars headed Down Under and took over the stage of the Sydney Opera House--now an international landmard, but a brand new venue at the time. This show was shot live in front of a sold-out crowd, and it stands as proof of the powerful universal appeal of Carol's presence and her comedy. Even outside the confines of the Hollywood sound stage--in a live theater setting on a foreign continent--Carol has the crowd roaring with laughter (as does Tim Conway as the world's oldest orchestra conductor). The show also finds a beautiful blend of grace and grins when the charwoman aided by the Australian Ballet, finds herself the prima ballerina opposite the magnificent ballet dancer Edward Villella in Swan Lake. Carol sings ""It's Today"" · Tim as the world's oldest conductor · ""Ham Actors"" Mundane is drunk during her performance.

S7 E13 • with Ruth Buzzi, Richard Crenna

Two of television's most enduring and endearing performers are the guest stars for this seventh-season episode of The Carol Burnett Show. Richard Crenna had three series under his belt when he showed up for this appearance: Our Miss Brooks (1952-55), The Real McCoy's (1957-63) and Slattery's People (1964-65). The other guest star, Ruth Buzzi, had just completed her 1968-73 stint on Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In, where she frequently socked it to people as handbag wielding Gladys Ornsby. Dan Rowan, Dick Martin and announcer Gary Owens were the only other regulars to stay with that celebrated comedy variety series for its entire NBC run. Ruth plays Carol's clueless celebrity partner in a game show parody called "Celebrities and Peasants." Richard plays police officer Carol's partner (and husband) in a skit titled "Adam and Eve 12."

Carol appears as one of her many regular characters, ancient acting coach Stella Toddler, in a sketch about the tottering teacher being immortalized in cement at Grauman's Chinese Theatre. This seventh-season episode also features two of her favorite guest starts: Steve Lawrence, who sings "Maybe This Time," and Tim Conway (before becoming a regular), who plays a man who can't quite stop monkeying around after being chomped on by a chimp. Steve and Tim both appear in the "Ad Men" skit with Harvey Korman (each having a tough time stifling the giggles), playing advertising executives acting like lovers caught in a romantic triangle. Everybody then sings and dies their way through a musical finale about death scenes.

S7 E17 • with Carl Reiner

Carl Reiner, the versatile mirth master who played second banana to Sid Caesar throughout the '50s (on both Your Show of Shows and Caesar's Hour), appears with another of television's great second bananas, Harvey Korman, in the "Funny6 Lady" sketch, which features Carol as a stand-up comic seeing a marriage counselor because she can't stop pelting her husband (Harvey) with one-liners. The psychiatrist tries shock therapy: She must remain absolutely quiet while he asks her such questions as, "How lazy is your brother-in-law?" The first-rate second bananas also appears with Carol in "Accident Prone," about a couple trying to get a Small State insurance policy, and "La Caperucita Roja," a Mexican-flavored retelling of Little Red Riding Hood (the wolf is a bull, played by Carl, and Harvey in Grandma).

Première diffusion : 19 janvier 1974

S7 E18 • with Tim Conway, Steve Lawrence

Aired a few weeks after the previous episode on this Collector's Edition Volume, this show brings back Steve and Tim as guest stars- and shows what happened during the dress rehearsal for the "Ad Men" sketch (for once, it's Tim who loses his comedic composure and collapses in laughter). But Tim gets Harvey chuckling in a sketch about the Oldest Man helping an actor who requires the fastest, most efficient dresser available. Steve sings "Rainy Days and Mondays" and appears in the "Bachelor Party" sketch as a man who accepts a dangerous bar bet and winds up putting the moves on his fiancee's sister (Carol). He then joins the cast for a mini-musical salute to George Gershwin, which is staged like a Busy Berkeley musical.

Première diffusion : 2 février 1974

S7 E19 • with Vincent Price, Joel Grey

Funny thing about Vincent Price: he could be frightfully funny. Although primarily known as a horror star, he amply demonstrated his flair for comedy by scaring up laughs in numerous appearances on The Red Skelton Show, in guest shots on sitcoms (from F Troop to The Brady Bunch) and in such films as Champagne for Caesar and His Kind of Woman. Small wonder he was a welcome guest on The Carol Burnett Show. In this seventh-season episode, he stands at podium to tell anecdotes about Abraham Lincoln's sense of humor, then returns to play a spy in a sketch with regular Harvey Korman. The episode's other guest star, Oscar winner Joel Grey (Cabaret), appears in a "Carol and Sis" skit with Carol and Vicki Lawrence, also teaming with Carol for the "Punch & Judy" finale about a street entertainer (Vincent) and his puppets.

Première diffusion : 9 février 1974

S7 E20 • with Tim Conway, Bernadette Peters

It's Carol's turn to break up at Tim's antics during an "As the Stomach Turns" parody of The Exorcist. Guest star Bernadette Peters has a devil of a good time playing 12-year-old Raven, Carol's possessed niece. Tim, a favorite guest star before becoming a regular in 1975, is the exterminator-turned-exorcist who battles evil with such symbols of purity as a white shoe worn by Pat Boone, a picture of Doris Day drinking a glass of milk and a branch from the King Family's Christmas tree. Bernadette then sings "Blame It on My Youth," and returns for the finale, a mini-musical salute to composer Harry Warren. Harvey and Tim also team up for a World War II sketch about Japanese sailors in a two-man submarine out to sink Cleveland (the city where Tim got his start on television).

Première diffusion : 16 février 1974

S7 E21 • with Eydie Gorme, Tim Conway

Although frequent guests on The Carol Burnett Show, and married, Eydie Gorme and Steve Lawrence made most of their appearances separately, each shining in song and comedy. Eydie was the guest for this seventh-season episode, singing "The Way We Were" and "How About Me." Then she has some musical fun with the rest of the cast in a series of short skits that spoof familiar song titles and lyrics. Tim Conway, not yet a regular on the show, breaks up both Harvey Korman and Lyle Waggoner in a sketch about a "brutal " Nazi interrogator. Vicki Lawrence plays a fortune teller giving Carol a lively reading. And Lyle and Vicki play Nick and Nora Charles in a parody of The Thin Man. This was the last season for Lyle, who had been with the show since it premiered in 1967. He soon was playing Major Steve Trevor on Wonder Woman.

S7 E24 • with John Byner, Francine Beers

Starting in February 1973, comedian-impressionist John Byner made six appearances in less than two years on The Carol Burnett Show. In this seventh-season episode, he performs a stand-up routine,, then plays Harvey Korman's partner-in-science (each of them developing a woman robot, inevitably arguing about which creation is better). The episode also is a marvelous showcase for Vicki Lawrence, who appears in a "Carol and Sis" sketch about Carol and Harvey trying to celebrate their anniversary,, then sings "Mama's Gonna Make It All Better," then plays Harvey's robot in the "Humanoids" skit, then plays Donna Cargoin the musical finale, a parody of country music awards (John is Glenn Twitty, Carol is Laura Tendril, Lyle Waggoner is Big John Black and Harvey is Johnny Money). And Vicki hadn't even started playing Mama in the "Family" sketches.
