RIP, Tim Conway

Tim Conway, famed for his role on The Carol Burnett Show, passed away today at 84. I haven't seen that show in years, but I recall watching it as a kid, and laughing as much at my father nearly pissing himself as at the sketches.

Here's a famous one where Harvey Korman legendarily actually did piss himself at Conway's performance:



And here's Conway telling the story of that sketch to Conan O'Brien:

Gonna miss the legend behind Dorf.

Carol Burnett Show brings back fond memories of me and family watching that on a crappy color TV with a knob to change channels. It was far and away the best option of the seven channels we could watch.

I would not have guessed that Dave was a big Tim Conway fan.
