Mama breaks her leg and has to stay with Ed and Eunice. Unedited as it originally aired on February 25, 1975. The Family sketches from The Carol Burnett Show are beloved segments that humorously depict the everyday lives of a dysfunctional family, characterized by their exaggerated personalities and relatable conflicts.

Ed (played by Harvey Korman): Eunice's well-meaning but inept husband, who often finds himself caught in the middle of the family chaos. The sketches typically revolve around mundane family activities or events, such as birthdays, holidays, or even moving day, which quickly spiral into comedic chaos. The humor arises from the absurdity of their interactions, with Mama’s over-the-top demands, Eunice’s exasperation, and Ed's hapless attempts to mediate. Themes of love, frustration, and the complexities of family life are explored through slapstick humor, witty dialogue, and physical comedy. The characters' exaggerated traits and their heartfelt moments resonate with audiences, making The Family sketches a memorable and iconic part of The Carol Burnett Show. They brilliantly showcase the show's ability to blend humor with genuine emotion, highlighting the universal nature of family dynamics. --------------- 0:00 What happened to Mama?! 4:42 Mama causing trouble in a wheelchair 12:03 Ellen calls 13:51 Cobwebs! 16:35 Please let her be alright! --------------- Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.
