Tim Conway and Harvey Korman's Friendly Lunch Turns Into Hilarious Disaster in This Skit

Tim Conway and Harvey Korman’s friendly lunch quickly became a hilarious disaster in this classic skit. This hysterical sketch from The Carol Burnett Show further proves that it is one of the best shows in television history. Check out this uproarious, laugh-out-loud skit. You will find yourself laughing from beginning to end.

While it’s best to remove feelings and emotions from business transactions and dealings, that is not always possible. Human beings have feelings and emotions, and so when another party rejects their business offer, they often feel like they’ve been denied. Business can become very personal, and hurt, anger and resentment can spring up as a result.

In a hysterical clip featuring Tim and Harvey, that’s precisely what happens. A nice, friendly business lunch gets personal and awkward very quickly. Instead of a meal between business associates, the lunch better resembles a dramatic, contentious scene more likely to be found on a soap opera.

Despite the thick, palpable tension, Tim and Harvey keep everyone and even themselves laughing throughout the skit. There are a handful of instances when Tim nearly breaks character and bursts into laughter. While Tim gets close several times, he never breaks and somehow manages to keep it together.

In the skit, Tim and Harvey enter the restaurant for lunch and are quickly seated. The audience soon learns that Tim and Harvey are past business associates. Harvey is an ad executive who previously had Tim’s account. However, Tim has now moved on to another ad executive.

It's plain to see that Harvey is not taking the loss of Tim’s account well. He knows how long it has been since Tim took his business elsewhere, down to the exact day.

But as the two men are having lunch, the skit takes an unexpected turn. The ad executive currently holding Tim’s business appears, joins their lunch and further adds to the tension and hilarity.

Any skit with Tim and Harvey is bound to be a classic, and that is certainly the case here. We'll never know or understand how they both were able to keep from bursting into laughter.

Proverbs 17:22 “A glad heart makes a healthy body, but a crushed spirit makes the bones dry.”
