Greetings, classic cinema and TV fans. This is Jason Lockett here with you once again on this Flashback Friday. And yeah, this time around we are just a couple days removed from an unbelievable birthday. just Wednesday of this week as we're releasing this video, we have celebrated, now get this, the 90th birthday of a comedic icon. We're talking about the great Carol Burnett. Now, I grew up on Carol Burnett, the rerun, see, because when Carol Burnett's show was on, I wasn't even around. So I grew up, and my mom and my dad would always watch the reruns of Carol Burnett, and me being brought up on a classic cinema and movies and stuff like that, and seeing all these old characters and these old movies and everything, when I saw Carol Burnett doing her take on these comedic spoofs of these classic films that I grew up on, it was amazing to see this. when I watched her take with Wet with the Wind, of the iconic Gone with the Wind film. Her hilarious take of Sunset Boulevard, wow. The amazing one with Tim Conway where she spoofed National Velvet and Tim Conway playing there, a guy with cross eyes going, What happening It was amazing I had so much fun watching these old shows Just a few days before her 90th birthday I went to Big Locks and they had buy one get three free so you could buy one DVD and you get three free, so yeah, I was going to jump on that, so I picked up something very special, but I also got Mortal Engines. I don't have them with me right now, but I got Mortal Engines, the new Annie, and the animated film Freebirds, okay? So I got those as the free, and the one that I bought was this. Unbelievable. Carol Burnett's show, The Lost Episodes. Now, I have so many different episodes of Carol Burnett's show here at Classic Cinema Plus Studios that it's insane. And so I did some research because I had seen this before. So I was doing some research on it when I saw it at Big Lots about a week earlier. And I was like, oh, do I have all these? So I went and did some research and looked it up. I didn't have any of these episodes that are in this, the Lost Episodes collection. So I was like, then when I got the email that said, hey, we're doing buy one, get three free, I was like, hey, let's do it. so uh yeah this was six dollars the other three were free so if you calculate it out and even if you say i bought each one of them then you could say hey this only cost a dollar fifty and now the interesting thing is with this is the carol burnett show here this is a six disc set okay six discs okay let's jump into it here we go six discs one two three four five six okay six discs on this collection 16 full uncut episodes of the carol burnett show i mean unbelievable Comes with your booklet that has all of the information about what in each episode and the iconic Carol Burnett.
