Carol Burnett & Dame Maggie Smith are still going strong & entertaining us. Lovely talented ladies.
Maggie Smith is a BOSS! Her delivery of ordering them back to their desks and "We've come here today to discuss YOUR BRAT!" made me laugh so hard!
I feel that I've discovered Carol Burnett far too late in my life, and enjoying every sketch. Maggie is brilliant in this one!
Never too late... I discovered Carol Burnett on "Mad About You" some two decades after her show ended... her guest appearance was one of a kind among the entire cast... such finesse and then a slapstick right across my face lol
This is one reason that so many of the greats were happy to work with her and appear on her show. Pure genius. Glad you’ve found her - if it was a little later than you’d hoped, you just have more delightful first-time surprises coming your way than we old hands. Enjoy!
Oh, but it's never too late. You must see her version of Gone with the Wind (which is here on TH-cam). Sadly, there are so many TV shows and presentations that cannot be found anywhere.
@@ropolso Just finished watching it and it was absolute class. Melanie finally settles the score!
@@redacted2275 Just watched the clip where she's serving food in a camper van and they're cramped in together, but the younger man wants to go to the toilet. Bloody marvelous!
Maggie Smith in her prime was stunning. She also played a teacher in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie and won an Oscar.
She's still stunning
Dame Maggie is amazing.
Her prime? 😒
Miss Brodie A TRIUMPH
Maggie Smith is always in her prime
As an educator, I find this too real.
Agreed👏🏿💯
The fact that this was about 50 years ago and is worse now...terrifying.@@mananimal3644
I thought the same thing.
Former EA here...on career change now.
What was “comedy” decades ago has turned into far too prescient of our current times.😢
I was in the audience seeing this taped at CBS in 1976, a few months after moving to Los Angeles. Alice Ghostley was in the audience, and she stood up when Carol introduced her. It was only in the last few years that I was able to view it as it was shown on TV. It's more meaningful to me today than when I watched the live performance.
Lucky
I was going to write that I remember the original broadcast of this. You more than one-upped me on that comment.
My family would have considered you some type of celebrity for being in the audience!!!
Awesome! What a treat that must have been.
Ghostley was actually funny. Burnett was disgusting
We moved to l.a. back in 1979 I loved going to the different shows. We lived across the street from Paramount studios it was fun being part of the audience. I always wanted to go to this show but I was too young.
Before there was McGonagall, there was Miss Jean Brodie, and this character, Miss Collins 😂
And after Harry Potter, she was the Dowager Violet. They gave that character some of the best lines in Downton Abbey.
@@eduardo_corrochio don’t forget her take as constance trent in gosford park. she absolutely stole every scene she was in in that masterpiece of a movie, but doesn’t she always? RIP michael gambon.
@@samanthanickson6478 Gosford Park, oh, I need to watch that again, been too long. Yes, she is always so good.
Yes, Dame Maggie was a veteran long before the younger generation discovered her! I remember her in Hook, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, and so many others. Plus, she's a marvelous Shakespearean actor. Truly a treasure!
@@eduardo_corrochio she got harry potter first than DA
The way Maggie acted like they were children 😂😅
The way Maggie Smith plaid it straight to create a greater contrast to the comedy. Everyone on that stage gave a master class in performance. Brilliant 💯👍🏿❤️
Because they were children. lol
This is a speech, I'm sure many teachers wish they could give.
Good for Maggie Smith! She put The Family in their place while displaying great fashion sense!
The Mama Family skits on the Carol Burnett Show were a combination of very, very funny and truly brutal realism and this is one of the best of them.
Three of the greatest comics meet one of the greatest actors of all time. This set was miraculous. It describes the dysfunctional, child-neglected family to a "T".
Maggie Smith must have been a stunning appearance on American TV with her beauty, class, English accent and all.
Maggie Smith is fabulous!!!!
Laughter follows Carol Burnett wherever she goes, but the comedy legend is opening up about a particular scene she once filmed that took a serious turn.
The 87-year-old star revealed a sketch she rehearsed in 1974 for her iconic television series, "The Carol Burnett Show," that left her devastated.
While speaking to The Wrap, Burnett recalled filming a scene for the show featuring guest star Maggie Smith, along with herself as character Eunice, Harvey Korman as her husband Ed, and Vicki Lawrence playing her role as Mama.
The scene involved the Eunice and Ed paying a visit to their son Bubba's Sunday School teacher, played by Smith, to discuss how he was acting like a bully to his peers. During the scene, it's revealed that Bubba was acting out due to his upbringing at home, according to the outlet.
Burnett said the actors performed the skit without their usual Southern accents and overstated style, following a suggestion from someone on set.
“Before we were going to take, one of us said, ‘You know, just for fun, let’s do a run-through of this without doing the accents and without going over-the-top, let’s do it. Like it would be for real people, you know?’ And we did. And it was, it was devastating.”
"Devastating"?
Shit happens 😢 12:29
That's interesting! 🤔👍
I don't understand what she meant by "devastating."
She meant that, by doing the scene "straight", with no humorous intent, the dialog is serious and dark. A depiction of a seriously disfunctional family, and a child who is being damaged by his parents tirades.
I didn't know Dame Maggie Smith was in Carol Burnett!! This is such a great sketch. Mama & Eunice are spot on my mom.
Oh no how dreadful. Did you become a bully like Bubba?
@@puzzletherapy4u No. I became the quiet kid that folks were leery about.
So many of these problems exist in reality, that I find myself nearer to tears than laughter. As a longtime teacher, I’ve seen how children are affected by their home lives.
YES & thank you for saying this as a “long term teacher!” ❤
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
As another long-time teacher, I also found this close to the problems that exist for many students and for the adults they grow up into. While I admire all the actors in the skit, this was not funny for me.
Carol Burnett has said that when they were rehearsing this sketch, they decided to try it out without the accents and “country bumpkin” mannerisms, and she said it was heartbreaking. Without the comedic trappings, it was more tragic than anything else.
@@frakteIntriguing. Well, therein lies the age old wonder of comedy. Even "court" jesters helped dampen many stressful volatile situations by "making light" of them, but always with wisdom and good intention as well. Appointed court jesters were Allowed to poke fun at their nobles because in the end everyone became the wiser after a good laugh.
What a beautiful voice Maggie Smith has. That accent! Great performances from all concerned but the way Maggie Smith indicates a growing irritation through her gestures alone is just wonderful, all building up to that amazing "Class Dismissed!". I guess that is what they call acting.
Eunice has a photographic memory of every imagined slight done to her since childhood, and has never forgiven any of them. We all know people like that.
She was also never, ever, enough for Momma. So much psychology going on in these characters!
When a parent teacher meeting becomes all about the parents and the child is lost in the blame game. I've known parents like these
This sketch is heartbreaking. Dysfunctional families are very real. I’m grateful I live in a time where we recognise it, and can now work towards more healthy parenting, re-parenting, and lives. The amount of work it takes to re-parent. Sending love to everyone who watched this and felt the reality of this growing up. (Only one parent ever went to my parents evenings, and it always became about them). Lots of love from one “ungrateful child” x
I agree, this first time I watched this, I was laughing at the audience but at the same time feeling sad. sort of like 70-30. now, i'm watching this again I only laughed at a few points, but was feeling sad and miserable the rest. I can feel Maggie's exasperation
I was a child in the 70's and was not exposed to horrible adult behavior such as demonstrated in the skit. In fact, I stopped watching Carol Burnett and the sequential spin-off of these characters because it was not funny. At this age, and now that I lived through the period of The Rosanne Show and Malcom in the Middle, not to mention countless others, I am offended and blame this type of humor that was fed on mainstream media in partial responsibility for the degradation of polite society and the appreciation of kindness. You can see my full response to the video on the main thread.
@@HappyLife693nonsense - you were just one of the lucky ones. Dysfunction in family is as old as civilization itself and those stories have been woven into our narrative eternal. Just look at the most widely read book of all time, the Bible! Don’t be “offended” - become aware, and try to nurture a new generation to be a little more open to talking about it than the last.
@@HappyLife693Well aren't you just a little ray of toxic positivity? Those shows exposed the TRUTH. Sorry we can't all be perfect Stepford people like yourself. 🙄
I barely laughed - it's all too painful and realistic really to be funny.
I just adore this actress! I love Maggie Smith! She is truly a legend❤❤❤❤❤
"Why does every day involve a fight with an American?" 😂

No one can cut those eyes like Carol. 😂😂😂
omg, YES!!😂😂😂
Smith won an Oscar as Scottish teacher Jean Brodie.
The Prime Of Miss Jean Brodie was brilliant. I loved it. Smith was the 3rd choice
@@maudeboggins9834 Actually, Geraldine McEwan was even better in the TV version.
Along with that really splendid song "Jean", a #2 hit in the fall of 1969, sung by Oliver (William Oliver Swofford), who died of cancer on February 12, 2000 at the age of 54.
Oooh. This was really painful to watch. Really nice to see a much younger Dame Maggie Smith than I am used to, but the subject, the interactions - well they left me in tears and my stomach in knots. Too real for some if us. Thank heavens I had teachers along the way who cared.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yep, my friends and family in teaching have seen and heard some horrible stuff
I had the same reaction.
The original inspiration for Professor McGonagall maybe? Maggie Smith is pure gold.
Poor Bubba!!! 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Bubba actually turns out to be a good kid.
Depending on which Family sketch you see, the boys were named Bubba and Billy Joe or Bubba and Raymond.
Oh no the whole Clan has arrived 😂😂. Soon that Teacher is going to need some Xanax. Hehehe 😂
Such a young Professor McGonagall. Lol
Slipping momentarily into Dolores Umbridge with “I will have order!”
We all need a Miss Collins in our lives
I don't think teachers can be this candid in today's political climate.
As a domestic abuse survivor, I appreciate the realism and the pathos of the sketch.
People not touched by abuse may find this funny, and lucky they are, but this piece touches a nerve about the real lives of many of our students.
School and teachers were always the out for abused kids. The one place they could feel safe and secure was school. I saw many kids who were in dire straights at home, excel in school. They always had one teacher who seemed to motivate them. I had several who did and consider myself lucky. If teachers were allowed to teach and not have continuous interference from parents and administration, they could make a lot of kids succeed instead of giving up due to their circumstances at home. In a lot of ways, we have tied their hands. The only option is to kick kids out now, to quickly. Or, they drop out. Bubba is a popular name to call prison inmates. This sketch shows why.
@@VangoghsDoggoMaybe your school. Not all schools were like that.
Oh my Lordy, it's a *sketch comedy!* It doesn't have the obligation to carry the burden to work as therapy for the viewer!
If you are a survivor of any kind, *I have nothing but praise to you* but it's too serious of an issue to be discussed using comedy as backdrop.
I, in no shape or form, found this sketch funny. All the good lines were delivered by Maggie Smith. I think this skit should never have seen the light of day. It normalizes abusive behavior.
@@HappyLife693then don’t watch it. Simple.
Maggie Smith - doing what every teacher has dreamed of doing -- at least once!
12:40
It must've been an honor to be either yelled at or slapped by *THE* Dame Maggie Smith.
"My precious little angel would NEVER do anything wrong."
It’s Maggie Smith from Harry Potter and Downton Abbey!
She was already legendary before those roles

This is almost too real to be funny but I still love it.
Bubba's drawing gets me everytime. 🤣🤣😂 and poor Ed didnt stand a chance with them two. 😂🤣😂😂
Those two
@@theappraiserladyThanks teach 😇 'those two'.
Or have it your way
@@theappraiserladyI actually like being corrected. Keeps me on my toes. Thank you.
I like being corrected as well.
Maggie Smith has been absolutely brilliant in every part she's played!
I love this skit. A beautiful example of how AUTHORITY is one of the most complex day to day issues we all must deal with.
"That's the way I raised all of my kids." "...WUUUT???" XD ROFL!!! This family is a RIOT!!!
I didn’t notice Maggie Smith's name first..i recognized HER right away. Beautiful. I just knew it was her. I had never seen her so young. Just remember mostly from Harry Potter movies. Wow!!😊😊😊
First time seeing this stretch. Love it. 💙
The chemistry between the cast of the Carol Burnett show was amazing! Love it when they cracked each other up.
This is a brilliant social commentary that is right in line with political upheaval in the United States occurring right now in 2023. Whether we have an educated population or we allow ignorance to become bliss and actually penalize intelligence. This was pointed out in the 1970s by the fantastic comic and social visionary Miss Carol Burnett!
... "and both times I got these big, fat awful boys!" I'm crying 😭
She cried because she wanted a sweet little girl (oh how awful!) , and what do we have today!
I taught 10 yrs in US colleges and 25 in US public high school. Retired…..thank heavens!
How lucky that kid is to have Miss Jean Brodie as a teacher.
The family sketch was always known for hitting close to home. This is no exception.
This show is so much older than me but i remember watching them as reruns as a kid. I friggen loved Mommas House. This was hilarious 😂
It was called Mama's Family.
The original desfunctional tv family! So funny!
I was so lucky. My mom was so supportive of me.
The Family sketch is like a wonderful blend of Tennessee Williams and Tracy Letts
Magpie Smith is exquisite and class👍👍👍👍👍
Hearing Maggie Smith say Bubba is hilarious. Maggie and Thelma Harper?! I love this!
Love love love Maggie Smith with her angry/sweet demeanor lol. I love her too much
I can’t even laugh it’s all so real!
Vicki Lawrence, the legend, playing mother to another legend 16 years her senior.
The writers, Carol B. and the entire cast were brilliant.
It's hard to laugh because this is reality.
I could watch these clips all day long. When it was on I was working.
She is just the epitome of grace, class and beauty!! ❤❤❤
I taught school for 17 yrs well…this pretty much sums up most of the parents
This scene I love it a lot Maggie is the Queen 👑💯👍🩷💐
" not my kid... not my kid ... " some things never change.
I loved Vicki Lawrence 's portrayal of Mama. She did a great job playing that old woman.
Beloved Dowager Countess 💜💜💜
Grandma isnt bitter and seems to be the only responsible sensible one.
Wonderful to see these two legends working together! Maggie Smith at this age reminds me of when she was in the movie The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie❤
Wow! There must have been spies in my house growing up to make such an accurate portrayal!! 🤣🤣
The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie. A must watch.
Maggie Smith was simply spellbinding. Magical really. She really went whole hog, warts and all.
“I will have order!” Hmmmm… she really took umbrage. 😉
I am the BIGGEST FAN of Dame Maggie Smith. Love her ❤ Love her ❤️ Love her
I miss shows like this! I loved and still love this show. This is true quality TV
Sit at your desks at once!
Phenomenal delivery
This is my first time seeing a younger Maggie Smith. She pretty remarkable. This clip is heartbreaking though.
I appreciate Maggie Smith in a whole new light. How elegant she was in her younger years as well as her senior years. I'm starting to look up to her as a role model.
Our family watched the Carol Burnett Show weekly; it was some of the very best sketch comedy on television [1967-1978]. I'm thinking this particular show was probably shown around the time that Dame Maggie Smith had been awarded the Oscar for Best Actress in 1969 for her outstanding work in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie.
Carol had a difficult upbring...these skits brought up many feelings " to close to home".
I feel so lucky to be able to watch this I’m glad Carol Burnett has been re-discovered but for me that’s always brings me back to watching the show with my mom she had a great sense of humor and we love the show
Every time she says Bubba I chuckle lol
Lmao 😂😂. I'm crying now 😂😂😂
My gosh she is such a fantastic actress! Love her no matter what she does.
Maggie Smith was so beautiful. She still is I love her.
No way I missed this episode!! Love Dane Maggie Smith!!!
Yes this is a lot better TV than the shows today
I defy any other nationality on the planet to pronounce "Bubba" like Carol Burnett did.😂
"Berrbaa!"
Maggie Smith owns this one, these shows were Brilliant., Thanks Carol.
Oh my god I forgot what real laughter is. I watched this show faithfully the whole time it aired on TV. I'm still rolling at that drawing 🤣🤣🤣
Still waiting for these precious videos in 2024. Carol is my favorite comedian!!
If you read this as a transcript you would find zero jokes. In the hands of these actors it becomes satire. Funny? Of it’s time. And quite crucial to watch in 2023. Maggie is ON POINT playing it very nearly straight, dropping in her pauses with a surgeon’s precision. Carol, Vicky and Harvey are top notch comic performers who understood the difference between making light and shedding light. The audience reaction is probably sweetened a touch but this is timeless, character-driven comedy which feels distinctly uncomfortable and necessarily so. The nature of comedy is to sometimes agitate to laughter and hold up a mirror to the audience. THAT’S WHAT MAKES IT FUNNY. And I do love me some Tim Conway as the (played for laughs but unthinkable now) near-deaf relative or the Nazi interrogator with a puppet fetish, but look at the dialogue a sketch like this inspires. Plus…touches like the set/costume colours and choices are so in keeping with the tone of the scene.
I love reading all of these remarks from the younger folks who are just discovering Carol Burnett and crew. My family in the states grew up on the CBS show on CBS every Saturday night, with Carol acting her mime at the end, dressed up as a humble cleaning woman sweeping up the overhead light into a small circle until there was darkness. I believe that she borrowed that skit to the late but loving Red Skeleton who used to sweep up a spotlight dressed as a hobo if I recall 😊, but I am now a 64 yo bat, so don't quote me on any of this lol.
I don't remember the mimes. The most detailed memories I have of Carol Burnette was about 1972 onward when I was about 10. I'll have to dig back to see the mime stuff.
Wow, even Ed at times said to Mama "Youre really on thin ice OLD WOMAN!!", usually that is Eunice's line, LOL.
Wow, she was young here. She was so beautiful, but she's still a great actress.
Her eyes are as big as saucers, absolutely gorgeous woman
In this sketch, here Maggie sounds as Julie Andrews did in sound of music when she was talking to the captain about each of his children, which angered him.
Anyway, they sound alike. Lovely.
I wish people would realize how difficult teaching is especially today. It can be dangerous as well. Many teachers wake up in the middle of the night and worry about their students and try to figure out how to reach all of their students. Teaching is truly a "calling".
As a teacher, i feel your words. Peru here.
This skit ia the embodiment of "Every child deserve parents; but every parent do not deserve kids."
Great sketch. They're all fantastic.
What a fabulous performance
Poor Miss Brodie. After she got fired from Marcia Blaine, she ended up in this American school.
This is like the last scene from Tar.
❤ Late night tv 4 me: Carol Burnett. This is a terrific sketch😂 How young they were. And its never too late for great comedy! A classic!
Fantastic, Emmy-level performances.
O..M..G...I didn't recognize her, but the voice!!! ❤❤❤
Professor Donagle and The Dowager were always in there! 😊
Were I in her board of education, then I would vote to give her a raise.
