Agreed. The Carol Burnett skit was one of the best. And I can't get thru GWTW without thinking about it!

Saw a retrospective of the Carol Burnett Show not long ago, which included an interview with Bob Mackie, who designed Carol Burnett's costumes (and maybe the other costumes too) for the show. He talked about his reaction to the request from the producers/writers/directors to design a gown with a drapery rod through it. ("O-kaaaay") He also said that of all the gowns, dresses and costumes he's designed for anyone, not just Carol Burnett, that famous gown with the drapery rod is the one most people remember best.
