The Carol Burnett Show (1967) - 8x23 with Jean Stapleton and Phil Silvers

Two Emmy-winning television legends guest star in this eighth-season episode of The Carol Burnett Show. Jean Stapleton claimed three Emmys for playing lovable dingbat Edith Bunker on another long-running CBS series, All in the Family. Former vaudeville and burlesque comic Phil Silvers struck Emmy gold in 1956 for his high-energy portrayal of Sgt. Ernie Bilko, the Army's fastest-talking con man, on The Phil Silvers Show: You'll Never Get Rich. The episode begins with Carol's parody of Cher, who would be her guest star later that year. it ends with a musical number that features Silvers reprising his Bilko character. Between these segments, Stapleton shows the audience a very un-Edith side with a rendition of Stephen Sondheim's "Losing My Mind." She also plays a militant women's-libber in a sketch with Harvey Korman making one misstep after another.
