He loved to break Harvey Korman, and was expert at it ... RIP.

Damn. He was a funny, funny man. Hell, the audience is laughing when he walks out and he hasn’t even done anything. Korman can barely keep it together.  RIP.

Those guys lost it more often than not, but we always were in on the joke, so it was awesome.

That stinks. He was funny in everything he did. I remember watching McHales navy as a little guy with my Dad and don’t get me started on the Carol Burnett shows.

Thanks for the memories Tim you will be missed.

I debated between this one and the dentist sketch where he destroys Harvey (one of the many times) but I remember seeing this one when it first aired and it absolutely destroyed me.

For those of us that maybe have a richer patina than others, The Apple Dumpling Gang was one of my favorite movies as a kid. Him teamed up with Don Knotts in this movie, and, to me, it was gold!

I remember seeing that at a drive-in. Yep, deeply patinated.

TV edits of Apple Dumpling Gang leave out “Duh, still aren’t mad I shot you in the leg, are ya, Frank?” and the subsequent nose-probe-via-revolver; which is a crime against television.

Conway’s slow-motion skits were always amazing.  The world’s oldest fireman, or the one where he fell down the stairs in slow-mo.  He was so good...

Conway was amazing - he almost always held it together, looked Korman in the eye, and went on with the sketch.
