The Carol Burnett Show (1967) - 8x16 with William Conrad and The Jackson Five

William Conrad, nearing the end of his five-year CBS run as portly detective Frank Cannon, is the guest star for his eighth-season episode that also features The Jackson Five making the second of three appearances on The Carol Burnett Show). The brothers perform "The Life of the Party," returning for the musical finale, a rousing salute to such musical groups as The Mills Brothers, The Andrews Sisters, The Coasters, And The Supreme's. The Cannon star shows his versatility by singing a "Movies Were Movies" tribute to silent-comedy stars, then slipping into a mime routine as Oliver Hardy. He next shows his flair for comedy in a sketch with Harvey (they're doctors and golfing buddies). But the highlight is his portrayal of Willy, the widowed Mama's wealthy suitor in the "Family" sketch titled "The Gentleman Caller."
