Tim Conway as Mr. Tudball Struggles to Paint His Office with Mrs. Wiggins

Tim Conway, as Mr. Tudball, struggles to paint his office with Mrs. Wiggins’s assistance. Nothing is ever as simple as it could and should be for Mr. Tudball, which includes painting the walls of his office. Watch the hilarious skit from The Carol Burnett Show, which features Mr. Tudball and his dimwitted employee, Mrs. Wiggins, trying to paint their workplace.

Many people enjoy being crafty and doing do-it-yourself projects. That usually means fixing up something around the house or in the backyard. Rarely, if ever, does that mean doing a DIY project at the office. When it comes to stuff like that at the workplace, professionals are generally hired to fulfill those roles and do the heavy lifting.

But apparently, Mr. Tudball, one of Tim Conway’s iconic characters from The Carol Burnett Show, is on the cheap side. Instead of hiring painters to throw some color on his office’s walls, he made the executive decision that he and his employee, Mrs. Wiggins, would serve as the painting crew.

This decision would prove to be a bad move but one that provided a ton of laughs. The sketch begins with the easily irritable Mr. Tudball in a bad mood. Mrs. Wiggins is hours late to the office, having wasted half the day. Mr. Tudball lets her know that her tardiness is a massive problem. But without any further delay, the two get prepared to cover their office walls in canary yellow.

Of course, as would be expected, Mrs. Wiggins does not have the slightest idea what she is supposed to do. Mr. Tudball replies, as only he can, with hilarious, lightning-fast, quick-witted insults about her intelligence and wardrobe.

Despite everything, the two of them eventually get to painting. But things don’t exactly go according to plan. Mr. Tudball ends up covered in paint and with his bad toupee flopping off the top of his head.

Carol and Tim were two of the most talented and funniest people to appear on television, and this skit is even more proof of that.

Job 8:21 “The time will come when your mouth will be full of laughing, and cries of joy will come from your lips.”
