Regret the Error

In a May 29 obituary for comedian Harvey Korman, The Associated Press misidentified two recurring sketches in which he appeared on “The Carol Burnett Show.” They were “The Family,” not “Ed and Eunice,” and “Carol and Sis,” not “Old Folks at Home.”
The story also erroneously reported that “The Carol Burnett Show” was cancelled by CBS in 1979 after 12 seasons. Burnett told the AP the network had asked her to come back for a 12th season, but she decided to end the show in 1978 after 11 seasons while it was still successful because “I think it’s classier to leave before you are asked.”

Thanks, Jim!
