Tim Conway and Harvey Korman as Pianists Will Have You in Stitches

Tim Conway and Harvey Korman as pianists will have you in stitches. The two comedy legends showed they can bring the laughs without saying a word in this classic skit from The Carol Burnett Show. Watch this hysterical, gut-bustlingly funny clip of Tim and Harvey as classically trained musicians.

Throughout history, there have been several truly iconic and legendary comedy duos. Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, Bud Abbott and Louis Costello and Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis, are likely the comedic pairings that immediately come to mind, and rightfully so.

However, there is one duo that people, for whatever reason, seem to leave out whenever this discussion comes up: Tim Conway and Harvey Korman. Whenever those two appeared in a skit together on The Carol Burnett Show, you knew you were in for a treat and were witnessing something truly iconic. For the most part, it was only a matter of time until Harvey broke character and burst into laughter.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Tim and Harvey are, again, in another skit together, but this time they are pianists. Harvey is the legendary, world-renowned musician, and Tim is his much younger but still very talented protégé. At the beginning of the sketch, Harvey introduces the situation while sporting a wild, unkempt wig and an equally disheveled and untidy mustache. Seconds later, Tim, also wearing a hilariously ridiculous wig, walks out on stage and sits at the empty piano.

From that point forward, the dialogue is basically nonexistent. But the laughs keep coming as things between the two pianos go from friendly to competitive to downright hostile. The clip eventually ends with Harvey and Tim destroying each other’s piano and inflicting a fair amount of pain on one another.

Somehow, through the entire hysterical skit, neither Tim nor Harvey breaks character. There might have been one instance at the very beginning where Harvey begins to smirk, but other than that, they both manage to hold it together.

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