Over forty years since her television show went off the air, Carol Burnett is still loved and remembered. This past Halloween, I saw a woman dressed like Burnett from arguably her funniest skit: her Gone With the Wind parody. The costume wasn’t a perfect match for that dress, but it was recognizable.
Before The Carol Burnett Show won hearts and Emmys year after year, its star was part of a different ensemble comedy cast—one from an earlier generation.
