“In this light, behind-the-scenes memoir, Burnett pays tribute to the many talented individuals responsible for the show's enduring success, sharing some of the hilarious impromptu moments on the set and sheds light on the many memorable sketches, including the movie parodies that have become classic TV.” —Kirkus Reviews"The great comedian Carol Burnett filled America’s living rooms with pratfalls and Tarzan yells. Carol Burnett’s new memoir, In Such Good Company, captures this zaniness with relish. Written in Burnett’s laughing voice, the book chronicles how she prepared her weekly dose of mayhem. Resonating with Burnett’s lively enthusiasm, In Such Good Company captures the excitement of being there once again, and it’s a joyous addition to her earlier memoirs." —The Washington Post
Pea Jay Kay said Thank-you, Carol. More than reflections, this book is like sitting down with Carol and hearing her personal take on so many people that she worked with through the years. So much of the early shows are coming back to me in reading this!. "Carol's best book and a joy to read." according to Robert J. Canning. I've read every one of Carol Burnett's book, including her play, "Hollywood Arms." But this is her BEST! Having met her a couple of times (once backstage at the St. James Theatre, Broadway, and the second time at Disney Studios), I can tell you what you see is what you get -- a sweet, caring, funny, witty, charming woman. I really enjoyed the book LarsLattimer I really enjoyed the book. However, I could have done without the narratives about the sketches we have seen hundreds of times. We remember the scenes, and the dialogue, but tell us something about the production, etc. that we don't know. But overall, I like the book and do recommend it.
