I just heard the tragic news that "Carol Burnett Show" star Harvey Korman has died. I'm totally crushed. He was one of my all-time favorite comic actors. It's been a shitty week for TV and movie fans... First "Laugh-In" star Dick Martin was taken from us, then movie director/actor Sydney Pollack and now Harvey Korman. And to top it all off today is the opening day of "Sex and the City."
Harvey Korman was brilliant in almost every role he took on, everything from "Blazing Saddles" to his guest spots on "The Munsters." He even shined in that turd of all turds, "The Star Wars Christmas Special." Harvey played an alien in the Cantina. Check out this absurd clip where Harvey orders a drink from the bartender played by "Golden Girl" Bea Arthur -- You can't make this stuff up!
Korman fact: He was the voice of the Great Gazoo on "The Flintstones"
