Harvey Korman - RIP

What else is there to say - Harvey Korman, or as I've always thought of him - Count d' Monay - has passed on.

There are no words to describe how incredibly funny he was - whether he was working with Carol Burnett or Mell Brooks - big screen or small.

The best thing about Harvey Korman was his inability to keep a straight face - his giggles inevitably reduced me to a puddle on the floor. As a little girl forced to watch every episode of Gunsmoke, the highlight of my evening was losing myself in the absurdity of the Carol Burnett show.

Here's one of my favorite clips - and yes.. everyone ... make that dentist appointment for your six-month checkup today.
