- November 16, 1970
The Carol Burnett Show season 4 episode 10 features two guest stars: Martha Raye and Ross Martin. Martha Raye, a well-known comedian and actress, is known for her brassy humor and vaudeville-style performances. Ross Martin is also an actor, best known for his role as Artemus Gordon on the hit television show "The Wild Wild West."
This episode is filled with hilarious skits and musical numbers that are sure to leave audiences laughing. One standout skit is a parody of the game show "What's My Line?" In this skit, Martha Raye plays the celebrity panelist who must guess the occupation of the contestant. However, the contestant happens to be played by Carol Burnett herself, who is known for her ability to imitate various characters. As a result, Martha Raye has difficulty guessing just what occupation Carol's character might have.
Another highlight of the episode is a musical number featuring Martha Raye and Carol Burnett singing "Anything You Can Do." This classic Irving Berlin song is a perfect showcase for the two talented performers as they engage in a friendly competition, each trying to outdo the other with their singing and dancing abilities.
Ross Martin also gets the chance to show off his comedic skills in a sketch called "The Old West." In this skit, he plays a cowboy who mistakenly ends up in modern-day New York City. The scene is set up so that Ross Martin's cowboy character is completely out of place in the hustle and bustle of the city, leading to a number of comedic mishaps and misunderstandings.
The episode also includes a number of other memorable sketches, such as "As the Stomach Turns," which is a parody of soap operas, and "Do You Know Any Good Jokes?" which features Carol Burnett and Vicki Lawrence telling a series of silly jokes.
Overall, the Carol Burnett Show season 4 episode 10 is a must-see for fans of classic comedy. With its talented cast and hilarious skits, it's no wonder that the show remains popular even today, decades after it first aired. So sit back, relax, and get ready to laugh along with some of the funniest comedians of all time.
