Laughing Wolf

I used to love the Carol Burnett show, and Harvey was one of the reasons.  The cast was a true ensemble, and they played so well off each other, but to this day I still think of Carol, Vicki, Harvey, and Lyle Waggoner as the heart of that show.  It produced so much laughter and pure entertainment magic.  Havey went on, and outside the show I still think Blazing Saddles as one of his best roles.  After a series of health issues, Harvey Korman has passed into the light.  May the light shine on his family and friends in the days ahead, and good warm laughter have greeted him and wash over them in the days ahead.

Oh man, now I’m depressed… :(

But it solves which movie to watch tonight, Blazing Saddles it is!

You forgot Tim Conway. More than Lyle Waggoner, Tim and Harvey had that special chemistry that allowed them to wander far afield and still somehow find their way back to the core of whatever they were doing together. Their friendship was also quite deep and full of respect.

I’ll miss Harvey so very much. He was a kind man who gave the world a great big smile.
