Tim Conway is a Recipe for Disaster in Hysterical Carol Burnett Show Sketch

Tim Conway is a recipe for disaster in a hysterical sketch from The Carol Burnett Show. The legendary comedian shows why he should always be kept far, far away from a kitchen. Watch this side-splitting skit. Tim will have you laughing from beginning to end.

Cooking is most certainly a skill some have, while others really do not. Those who are blessed with culinary abilities literally cook up delicious, delectable meals and treats. Sure, practice and hard work will help improve one’s ability and results in the kitchen.

However, even for the most untrained eye, it’s easy to tell who has a natural talent in the kitchen and who does not. Some people may badly need a recipe and must follow it closely, adhering closely to its every step. Others, though, may have no use for recipes. They can whip up beautiful, mouth-watering dishes with ease.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Tim proves that no amount of practice and hard work will improve his performance and ability in the kitchen. He is a walking recipe for disaster, which makes for more than a couple of laughs. Ultimately, everyone laughs at Tim’s hilarious cluelessness and ineptitude in the kitchen except for his poor wife in the skit, played by Carol Burnett.

The short skit begins with Tim entering the kitchen. He is on the hunt for breakfast. However, Carol hasn’t gotten any sleep and is in no position to cook; she was kept up all night by their baby. Tim is on his own, and things quickly go from bad to worse.

He attempts to make coffee and rips the cabinet off the wall. Then, he decides that he wants bacon and eggs. But, like his coffee attempt, it does not go well. Eggs are left broken and splattered throughout the kitchen. The bacon doesn’t go as planned, either. Tim even manages to injure Carol, who is beyond tired and wants to sleep.

Tim proves that cooking isn’t for everybody. 

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