November 13, 1976…Carol Burnett’s ‘Went With The Wind’ Sketch Debut

One of the funniest and most memorable moments in American television came to us thirty eight years ago this month.

In the clip below, Carol talks about the sketch and the dress. In another interview, I’ve heard her say that only she and Harvey Korman had seen the Bob Mackie dress. She had to let Harvey in on the site gag or he would break up to and not be able to do his lines to set her up for the big payoff line, “I saw it in the window and couldn’t resist”. Harvey actually makes for a pretty convincing Rhett Butler doesn’t he? Have a laugh, enjoy and share! -Bobby Ellerbee

    Harvey does the best Clark Gable impression of all time, with that raised eyebrow and smirk!

    No matter how many times I watch that sketch, I can’t stop laughing. And Korman’s face as Rhett Butler is priceless.
