The Tim Conway Show background

The Tim Conway Show

Tim Conway hosted a TV variety show that closely resembled the Carol Burnett Show, featuring a mix of sketches from both programs, along with dance routines by young people and musical performances.

Tim Conway's variety show showcases a mix of polished sketches, blackouts, and parodies of 1980s commercials. The show features recurring routines, including Tim misreading cue cards with audience members and a continuing storyline about a convict guiding his wife to escape. The Don Crichton Dancers, a troupe of junior high-aged kids in costume, make appearances, although their performances can be unsettling due to their age. The show also features guest stars, including singers who are interrupted by Tim, as well as Carol Burnett and Harvey Korman in later seasons.
