WhoTom Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 I remember him and Harvey Korman cracking each other up on the Carol Burnett Show. They had great chemistry together. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuvian Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 very sad loss for comedy. He was truly great. He was on Johnny Carson one night talking about his daughter's wedding and how fancy it was. "I didn't know Sears made wine." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocemur Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 (edited) Aww, that sucks. Apparently when filming the Carol Burnett Show, they would get one take right as scripted and then sometimes the actors would ask to try something.

Here's Tim trying something, The Tim Conway Elephant Story: I'd heard pretty much the opposite: filming was running long, so the directors cut the scene down by cutting Conway's lines to nothing more than "Elephant." Conway, being Conway, took it on his own initiative to at lib the insane stories as a good-natured "F you" to the directors and to crack up the rest of the cast, as they all tried to do. It's why Vicki Lawrence's response was so cutting - she was waiting to get on with the scene. Either way, though, it was hilarious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dude was a genius, and the way he used to just DESTROY Korman was classic. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turk71 Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 I waited tables in Park City, Utah at a steakhouse with Tim Conway's nephew Tom around 1988. That winter Tim and Harvey and a group of about 16 people came in for dinner. Tom and I, who were friends, waited on them. They were hilarious and had a great time. Tim, Harvey, and the group could not have been nicer and threw money on the table as they left, on top of the huge tip already left on the credit cards. I lost track of Tom many years ago, but what a great night at work. RIP Tim Conway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
