The Lost Purse

This video is another that I've been wanting to add to my "Funny Stuff" category for quite a long time. And, it's another that I've watched on YouTube from time to time and wanted to show you guys. Like many of the previous videos I shared, it's also one featuring another sketch from "The Carol Burnett Show". This time, it not only features the eponymous star herself, but also actor and comedian Don Adams as a guest star.


In this sketch, Carol plays Claire Barton, a woman who had apparently lost her purse while out running some errands and is married to Frank Barton, who's played by Don Adams. Normally, this sort of thing wouldn't be too much of a big concern, but because of the lost purse holding some important papers...well, the loss is crazy enough to drive a person into hysteria.


As a little word of note, I've frequently enjoyed watching this video not only because of the humor and story, but because of the performances of Carol Burnett and Don Adams. The two of them make a terrific duo, and the comedic-timings and authenticity of their performances made them all-the-more fun to watch. Take a look at this video and tell me what you guys think:
