Comedy legend Carol Burnett tells the hilarious behind-the-scenes story of her iconic weekly variety series, The Carol Burnett Show.
CAROL BURNETT has been an actor on Broadway, on television, and in the movies. She has been awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, The Mark Twain Prize for Humor and the Kennedy Center Honors, among other singular achievements of a woman comedian who was nothing less than a pioneer and a role model for stars like Tina Fey, Amy Pohler and Amy Schumer.
"In this light, behind-the-scenes memoir, [Burnett] pays tribute to
the many talented individuals responsible for the show's enduring
success, [sharing] some of the hilarious impromptu moments on the
set and sheds light on the many memorable sketches, including the
movie parodies that have become classic TV." --Kirkus Reviews "The
great comedian [Carol Burnett] filled America's living rooms with
pratfalls and Tarzan yells.... Carol Burnett's new memoir, In Such
Good Company, captures this zaniness with relish. Written in
Burnett's laughing voice, the book chronicles how she prepared her
weekly dose of mayhem.... Resonating with Burnett's lively
enthusiasm, In Such Good Company captures the excitement of being
there once again, and it's a joyous addition to her earlier
memoirs." --The Washington Post
