One of the rare times you actually see Eunice genuinely happy and carefree …..that is until her family returns.
so true

She knows they mess with her that's wat she's talking about

I swear finding these "new" episodes of 'Eunice' is like Christmas morning🎄😄
Exactly, I love this. I wonder why is SNL so NOT funny and this is absolutely gold, without being obscene, sexual or rude. I love it that it’s on TH-cam now
That actually sounds like something Eunice would say.
Natilie E. S. - That is SO true! 😆
Natilie E. S. IKR !!!
@@tsnovak20 Because all *SNL* does is push their anti-conservative political viewpoints on their audience and calls it ✌️comedy✌️. Hollywood is now full of morons who don't understand that people don't want their political opinions. Their sole job is to entertain the masses, and they can't even do that. It was pretty amusing to hear Ricky Gervais call out his fellow _'entertainers'_ on this for both the dying golden globes and oscars.

These Family sketches are truly heartbreaking because they are so close to reality
Yeah.. The only one I found funny was the one where they played the "Sorry" board game.
Most men live their lives in quiet desperation.
Not anyone I’ve ever met
@@kimjohnson8471 so so many women. Me included
so true
"Marriage is not all beer and pretzels..."
Truer words have never been spoken!
Yum. Pretzels
My God the acting in that scene! Carol Was like oscar worthy all the emotions she exhibited in those few minutes. And I've never seen Eunice win before. Wow.
easy.
Derek Washington
It was pretty great to see her stand up for herself and win. I’ve always felt bad for Eunice in these Mama sketches. She is always the butt of the joke. Not this time. Glad to see her as The victor against Mama and Ed.
Great actors and actresses.
Thanks to the support of her girlfriend, Midge.
Derek L. Washington ~ I never saw that before either. Refreshing for a change, wasn't it?
Joanne Woodward was a wonderful actress, and a totally class act. She had already won an Oscar when she and Paul Newman got married, for Three Faces of Eve. Paul once famously said, when asked if he was ever tempted to stray from his marriage, "Why go out for hamburger when you've got steak waiting at home?"
And she made her own gown for the event.
I want a hubby like Paul Newman
I agree, Joanne was a classy lady, loved her acts
@@susanstorm7910 I saw Paul Newman in Rhode Island back in 1997 and although he was wearing sunglasses he was still handsome.
@@davidcunico1673
I'll never forget her in Come Back, Little Sheba. That was great. Sir Lawrence Oliver' was the doctor.
Loved Joanne Woodward in this! That wig was amazing, and she looked terrific! Lucky Paul!
That hair is off the hook!
I'm happy Eunice had at least one good friend. What heartbreaking lines: "Im so sorry you gotta leave!!" "I'm so sorry you gotta stay!"
Yes, what a line! My heart went out to Eunice having to stay.
@@audreybowles6357 ik
I noticed all of Eunice's siblings are successful except Eunice probably because she stayed behind to care for mama
@@ericrivera8410 Agree and the black sheep is usually the one there.
@@ericrivera8410 what about vint?
This was definitely one of thedarker episodes, love how Midge told off Ed and Mama!
Do you know who played midge? She looks familiar
the great actress Joanne Woodward, who was also the wife of Paul Newman. She won the academy award for best actress in 1957 for the movie "the three faces of Eve"....@@Lifeafterthedarknarc
Joann Woodward@@Lifeafterthedarknarc
@@LifeafterthedarknarcJoanne Woodward
But also one of the few episodes where Eunice got justice. That was nice to see.
Brilliant writing to have Woodward’s character call out people who claim “decency “, but in reality are cruel and judgmental.
I miss simple, easy comedy like this. Classic. Carol is such a brilliant comedian.
Very!! 🎯👌
Eunice: "Who cares? I'm just surprised he EVER had that much energy."
She absolutely crushed him with that. Excellent!
This was the same year Joanne Woodward was in “Sybil” with Sally Field, one of the best mini series ever done on television for which she was nominated for an Emmy.
Watching these remind me of my mom. We would watch these together and laugh our heads off. RIP Mom 😢
Hugs to you 💐 Every loss has its own level of depth and preciousness .. the deepest is loss of a mother.
Me & my Pop.
We didn't miss The Carol Burnett Show or the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.
Those laughs were the best of my life.
me too, but it was three generations here, my grandma, my mom and I, rip all grandma's and all mama's no longer with us.
Been watching these clips for hours remembering how my mom and I would laugh our faces off...then the first comment I read is yours. What great memories, hey? 🙂
My mother WAS Eunice, so she didn't find it funny at all! No one likes looking in the mirror.
LOL The MINUTE anyone starts to put Eunice down the way her face immediately changes is beyond funny...Priceless. Such great acting and comedy.
Eunice rarely got taken up for... I love this episode!
Rodney Norman they should have!
Midge was a really good sport putting up with those insults from battle axe Mama, & I LOVED how she stood up for herself to the battle axe Mama & to Ed! And what she said is true! It doesn't matter what kind of lifestyle you live, as long as you are nice & kind to people! Amen Midge! 👏👏
Yes I loved it, lol 😂👏
Facts
You put it beautifully - Mama is a battle axe - a classic!
I can't stop staring at her massive wig
That was a really good one. For once Eunice got the upper hand.
I was just thinking the same thing,😉
Coni Thomson IKR,SHE GAVE’EM A LEFT AND A RIGHT HOOK 🤨
THATS WHAT THEY AZE GET 🦾💪🏾
Henry Wimberly Yea finally Eunice shut they aze up 🤐🤐
I wish they had gone back to the bar and Ed had caught them with that handsome man at the bar 😂
Melinda Pelfrey at least in this time of trials we have some good clean shows to watch. Laughter is good for the soul ❤️
The way Eunice looks at Ed when she knocks the puzzle over...🤣😂
Joanne Woodward's hair is a work of art here
Thank you. I couldn't think of who she was.
The 70's...
Lol. Eunice n Mama had gorgeous hair too.
This is sybil faulty’s wig
Robert Gardea
One of my favorite movies that Joanne Woodward was in was The Three Faces of Eve. It’s an old b&w classic from the late 50’s where she was diagnosed with multiple personalities. Great old movie 👍
She and Paul Newman both starred in The Long Hot Summer, also a very good late 50’s classic!
That look on Eunice's face after she knocked over that jigsaw puzzle is priceless. Makes me laugh EVERYTIME!
Yeah, it was like, "Go ahead, Ed, make my day!" I loved it when she knocked it over!!!
@@michaellarenee4856 It's almost as funny as that look she gives her mother in The Attic after she found out her mother cooked her pet rabbit.
@@torridd agreed!! Carol had such great expressions in her face that ALWAYS added extra comedy to her acts!!! They just don't make comedy like this any more and it's so sad!!! It's all about filth and fowl, and fowl and filth and woke crapola!!! Sigh!!! I'm showing my age again!!! LOL!!!
so true
'I am sorry you have to leave'
'I am sorry you have to stay'...
I always feel sorry for Eunice in these skits
These family sketches are like little one act plays; the quality of the writing is like that of fine theatre. Eunice is such a well developed, multi faceted, and, ultimately, tragic creation; Carol Burnett is at her best when portraying her. This episode is particularly fine as it includes Joanne Woodward, a magnificent actress in her own right.
she said she based Eunice in her mom, who never had her dreams come true. 💔
& mrs Paul Newman
@@chrishall9880 What?
i agree
Joanne Woodward is still with us. Not doing so well, sadly.
My family is dysfunctional but Eunice's family puts the "fun" in dysfunction.
Love these sketches, and they're strangely therapeutic.
So was mine but the one unifying factor was we all watched Eunice
id say almost 99% of families are/were dysfunctional,id bet a house on it in fact
Joanne Woodward was just great in this sketch!
Sandra Sanders Oh I was wondering who that actress was! 🙃
Yes and she looks so pretty, even with that wig
@@kelleyannethomas5372 it states her name under the screen.
Just watched this last night on TV. I didn't know it was Joanne Woodward until they said her name as being a guest. And I've seen this so many times over the years.
And in that blouse too.
I think we need to re-name this one: "The One Where Eunice Wins".
She also kind of won in that "Sorry!" sketch. Not to mention, the ones with Phillip in them and at the end of "Charades," she did feel a little better afterwards.
Yes, and I think she would have won every time if she would just put her foot down.
It's great to see that Eunice has a friend like Midge especially when dealing with family members such as Ed and Mama👊👊
It was the one night I was allowed to stay up late to watch the carol Burnett show.i treasured those t.v. nights with my wonderful mother. R.i.p. mom. Till we meet again.
Eunice finally had a good time with a genuine friend and all her family does is throw a fit. Poor Eunice. 😢
Joanne was drop dead gorgeous and a wonderful performer. She could do anything
Agree. IMO she outshone husband Paul Newman in the picture From the Terrace. She was a strong performer in everything she did.
Yes....she was...I would be just as devastated as she when she lost her husband. They really loved each other. I'd DIE! Paul was s-o-o endearing!When I was 13 and saw the modern day "Exodus" movie, I was miserable. I actually missed him. And felt that way about some guys ever since! I'm 68 now......
@@thirdghost8887 I never saw that. I will look for it
@Solo female travel Well I think you need a little education on beauty perhaps because you obviously are deficient in your understanding in that area. She was beautiful and a fine actress and a wonderful human being. As was her husband. Case Closed
This is actually one of the most poignant sketches based on Midge’s backstory
HAPPY 9OTH BIRTHDAY
JOANNE WOODWARD
(FEBRUARY 27, 2020)
She’s 94 now!
Joanne Woodward is from South Carolina. Easy for her to remember her southern accent. Wonderful
Thx
I think at some point everybody has been Eunice 💚
She was always my favorite character 💚
Carol Burnett and her eyes are amazing. She would have been great in silent movies.
Wow you're right!!
I love the way Eunice glowers at Ed and Mama, like, First one of you who says one word DIES!
Gorgeous eyes really and she could really work them.
"mama and daddy staggering home from the bigger jigger". 🤣🤣 oh NOW she had to stop talking mama? Lol😂😂
I love it when Carols eyes gets big when she gets pissed off
Why doesn't television have this quality and standard of writing and performance in 2020?
2 writers strikes decimated good tv.
Because they're too busy pushing their PC agenda, being inclusive and telling us who to love and hate.
Writing??? Idk...Carol Burnett said her show wouldnt get made today because each episode would cost millions...
I don't think the Carol Burnett show was so much the acting it was the reacting to the lines on the page. That's something you can't teach. There was a lot of ad-libbing on this show too. So, as funny as the scripts might have been, they were made 10 times as funny with the natural way they said the lines and reacted to the lines.
@@amahra100 Nah, television in the 70s was also socially progressive for its time, but still managed to combine it with good writing.
“I thought the town got rid of the alley cat”. 🤣🤣
The expression on Eunice face after she flips the table. 100% masterful!
Carol Burnett is a TRUE GEM. growing up watching her every sat night was a highlight of my childhood
Me too, I loved the Saturday night lineup. Nothing good comes on Saturday nights now
@@SUGAR_XYLER So ? Just watch Carol. Nothing better.
Priceless and ageless. Even at 90 years old...
I grew up watching Carol Burnett. One of the best variety shows of all time!
Sometimes it is a Silence of a moment within the dialogue if you could hear it in your head and it becomes funny
Me too
This was my mom's favorite show
Ditto 👍👍👍👍👍
@@janinefarris2748 I would think of something they did on the show and laugh out loud...
me too! loved the show and still do
Midge’s hair reminds me of Sylvia Fine’s hair style from The Nanny. Joanne Woodward looks gorgeous at 46 years old! My favorite movie with Joanne Woodward is “The Three Faces of Eve”. No wonder she won the Oscar for her performance, she was phenomenal! Truly a beautiful woman who stayed married to the same man for 50 years! A class act!
Oh yeah!!
The right couple never split.
"I'm so sorry you gotta stay" EXCELLENT WRITING!!!
"Big as life and twice as natural" - that will work its way into my daily speech.
This is one of the few episodes there Eunice actually got the upper hand, and the support she needs.
Fantastic episode. "If you're the picture of decency, then I glad to be called indecent." 💯
Yeah, I'd like to say that to every Christian that I know
How brilliant to be able to successfully layer so much humour over such a sad state of affairs.
Going off on a " toot" 😂🎉 lol
And knocking over that TV tray and that look in her eyes is the most perfect way to tell somebody off without saying a word!!! 😂😂😂
Eunice is the BEST!!
Carol's wig reminds me of the Peanuts character Sally Brown, lol!
Oh, it sure does now that you mentioned it.
Yes! More like Frieda though
Zell oh boy I forgot about Freida, lol
@@AIWboojum
YES Frieda! Lol 😂
mircas1964 lmao that’s it
😄 Ol’ Eunice really put the fear of God into Ed and Mama at the end! Her expressions are priceless. And what a treat to see the great Joanne Woodward in a guest comic role. Hilarious but touched with that little bit of pathos/sadness, like all the ‘Family’ sketches. Eunice just wanted an evening of fun, but her friend gets driven off by the reality she is sadly stuck with. They don’t make quality sketch comedy like this anymore. Long gone.
Midges dress is something I’d wear now! It’s a beautiful dress.
It sure is. I like the necklace she's wearing too.
THIS IS STILL THE FINEST WRITING EVER SEEN ON TV !
Wow look at that
Joanne Woodward
So young , so pretty
That can can dance 💃🏻 that they’re doing reminds me of the can can dance 💃🏻 that my two young daughters and I used to do. Now I’m 79 years old and I live with my oldest daughter and her wonderful husband. 😅😅😅😅😅😅
JoAnne Woodward is so beautiful
the family is brilliantly written and acted.
I feel there should have been at least one sketch in which Eunice wakes up one day and everything is as she's always wanted it to be: She's left Raytown, Mama, Ed and Ellen are out of her life, she's rich, a star in show business, and married to Duke Reeves. Granted this would most likely turn out to be just a dream at the end of the sketch, but it sounds like a fun idea to explore.
So you mean Eunice dreams about the real life Carol 😂
It would be interesting also if, as Eunice, they did like a Eunice Higgins Show (a la Burnett) but just for a sketch haha
@@nelle1001 like if she was an Oprah or Ellen or Mike Douglas or Dinah Shore talk show? That would be hilarious. I bet her hair and dress would be similar, only slightly more polished.
I always hoped there would be someplace where Eunice finally drops Mama, gets acting lessons, and succeeds in life. In the TV film, they do show her agreeing to leave with Philip in the end and pursue her dreams. Double bonus points for a scene in which she comes back to spit in Mama's face.
@@thomasalbus2656 That's what fanfiction is for. 😺
And the sweet angel Ellen has to take care of mama
Eunice finally got her point across. 🎇🎆👏🎉
I love how she set how Ed and Mama straight
Carol Burnett and Vicki Lawrence and Harvey Korman and Tim Conway made me laugh so hard when I was a little kid. Gosh I loved this show! And I'm watching it now in 2022 and it's even funnier. Brilliant. Simply BRILLIANT!!!
I love Joanne on that 1970s,Estee Lauder style wig!
so nice to see Joanne Woodward, I always thought she was so pretty and she was a really good actress.
Carol got to work and play with so many talented people.
I have always loved this episode. Acting at it's finest. Thank you to Joanne Woodward for bringing out the acting chops of Eunice, Ed, and Thelma. Wow, just wow!!!!!!
Eunice always beefs bout her life but never had the guts 2 walk away. Love how Midge spoke up 4 herself.
Thanks for posting this! Can't believe I missed this episode add skit. Joanne and Carol are GOATs. 😊 (Greatest of all time).
This was one of my favorite Family episodes. My mom and I loved these Family skits. We used to laugh like crazy. Eunice was our favorite character. Carol Burnette is mega talented. She deserves every ounce of her success. God bless Carol and all the other actors on her TV show.
Nice to see Eunice finally win one.
Carol burnett is brilliant
I love Harvey:
"You're on thin ice, old woman".
"Lucky to have that much left, I suppose".
AstralPixie Ice. Hi. Yes. Bye
I TRULY ....LOVE THIS SHOW It brings BACK ..SOOOOOO MANY WONDERFUL MEMORIES .❤️THANK U
absolutely!! That show brings back so many childhood memories!
@@carasmussen27 I love love love when EUNICE TELLS HER MOM .."LISTEN OLD WOMAN ....." I KNOW WE ALL LOVE OUR MOMS BUT SOMETIMES THEY BE TOO MUCH TO HANDLE ...LMBO❤️
Jennifer Gongora I think the word you are looking for is truly. Blessings.
These scenes are priceless . Such love .
Professional. What a joy .
The best I've ever seen Joanne Woodward!
These sketches represent comedic genius on many levels.
Happy Birthday Carol. You make me laugh until I cry. Thank you for the many years of pleasure watchung you 🎉
Carol and Vickie had such a natural chemistry with one another in these skits.
I love Joanne Woodwards "Midge Gibson". They all played off each other so well.❤️
There is an underlying sadness to this story (eg Midge’s abusive husband). As wonderfully comical as these are, they have a bittersweet almost dramatic undertone which is why they are so brilliant. Sort of a combination of Tennessee Williams and Tracy Letts
Great point! This sketch in particular seems like a Tennessee Williams play, moving yet more sad than funny at the end. And it has an Academy Award-winning actress (Joanne Woodward) to boot!
You’ve put too much thought into it.
@@francinejones2524 No. The distinctive writing allows to imagine a backstory and there are many clues that would indicate this. These can be watched for sheer enjoyment as well as some in depth analysis because it’s fun
As well as the attempted rape by Ed.
@@briancordova1299 Yikes. Totally overlooked that one.
That level of acting was A1, they were all brilliant!
We flew to Paris and back!
Ed: u can't go to Paris in one day!!!👏👏👏
That is Best Actress Oscar Winner Joanne Woodward in THE THREE FACES OF EVE (1957). One of her best performances of her career. 😀
She was also great in "Sybil" (1977)- Thelma and Eunice could have benefited from sessions with her Dr, Wilbur
@@mikejohnson515 Saw it! excellent both actresses including Sally Field.
I loved her in everything.
@@deborahburroughs8905 Me too. She's just so beautiful, as was her gorgeous husband, Paul Newman. Married until he passed, and what great films they made together.
A NEW KIND OF LOVE. The best.
i used to love the show as a kid growing up in the 70's. im enjoying watching it now too. thanks!
How serendipitous!
Happy 94th birthday today, Ms. Joanne Woodward ❤😂❤
I loved watching these as a kid, I'll never forget that big old brown TV set and my brother, sister and I sitting around it. I think I liked TV shows from back then way more than today. The Carol Burnett show, Laverne & Shirley, Three's Company, Gilligan's Island I Love Lucy and The Golden Girls to name a few. I know they're all from different time periods but watching them in reruns is so relaxing brings me back to when times were good in the world.
🙂🇨🇦✌
No wonder Eunice is so messed up. *The poor woman only owns ONE dress !*
Love it! Those shows and skits are just precious! A complete keepsake.
It was a true vintage dress that Carol preferred to wear over Bob Mackie's newly made look alikes for her..
😄😄 You noticed. You’ll be or already are a good husband.
@@rosemarykriegel3226 Hmm. Odd. I've seen a sketch of Bob Mackies Eunice design and it's exactly this dress.
These "Family" skits were the BEST!!!! Loved them in the 70s and love them now!!
They stand the test of time
Another brilliantly written Family episode - hilariously funny and at the same time tragically depressing.
I think there was lot of wisdom showed in this sketch as well.
I cannot remember the number of times I watched this sketch. It is just.. so truthful. The script written .. the act .. the emotions every character carried on... jyst awesome and.. so realistic. I relate to a number of things. Brilliant actors. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🌸🍃🍬🍃⚘🌸🍬🍬
I wish somebody would guest start Carol Burnett & Vickie Lawrence as “Eunice & Momma” on a show while they are both alive. That would be so great! Seeing Eunice & Momma in old age.
They can't. Remember Thelma died in a Special with Eunice and Ellen coming back from the funeral. Did you forget?
@@amahra100 But then she was brought back for the Mama's Family series a year later -- with no reference to the special -- and was the lead character on the show for its entire network and syndicated run -- until 1989. So the special shouldn't be any kind of impediment.
@@johnnotgalt2697 Oh, okay.
@@amahra100 No problem, Harriet! One explanation -- other than the likely one that the writers just wanted to bring the character back without explanation and hoped viewers would forget -- is that Thelma's funeral in the special was supposed to take place at some unspecified date in the future, and Mama's Family just hadn't reached that point in time yet. Sort of a Sci-Fi twist on this great comedy!
@@amahra100 yes they can. Thelma had an entire show after that, Mama's family.
Loved the end! Get ‘em Eunice!
This skit was always a piece of art. Like watching a mini TV playhouse. The best of acting, and always a bit of sadness with the comedy. I'm grateful for the uploads.
Midge Gibson. Lol. The contempt in Vickie Lawrence’s voice is chilling when she says Alley Cat. And the way the audience laughed at the joke where Midge’s ex husband used to beat her. Ouch. Also, my grandmother, in the 70's had the same wallpaper in her house "going up the steps" and in the upstairs hallway. It's like a trellis with ivy and some type of pink flower. Seeing it in these sketches brings back some painful memories! It isn't just these scripts that are bone chilling. My grandmother and mother had a temper like Mama and Eunice, and I often felt like Midge does in this sketch until I stopped speaking to them forever. Treat people badly, and they eventually leave you.
The wonderful Joanne Woodward!! 💐🏆🏆🏆💐
Wow!! Go Eunice. Never seen this once. Talking about taking your life back.
So nice to see Eunice having fun 🥰
I feel this entire episode
This is my all time favorite "Eunice" and I adore Midge!
I just realized that Eunice's 1940s hairstyle is akin to women who still have those early 90s bottle brush bangs and gel covered curls.
I've seen this skit at least a thousand times, and I laugh each time like it's the first time. Now THAT is comedy genius!
