Minnie Pearl And Peter Lawford Guest Star
Jimmy_the_Gent425 February 2022
A funny show, a long Q&A. Carol is asked about singing solos, she says she prefers singing with others. She introduces Peter Lawford, he enters smoking a cigarette. He is asked about David Jansen, who he says he knows and when he met Frank Sinatra. Lyle and Harvey do a fashion show dressed in mod 60s clothes.

A funny Carol & Sis sketch has them watching a horror movie on TV while Roger is away. They are scared to be alone, Roger returns with a drunken colleague (William Schallert). Carol thinks he is a burglar and bonks him on the head with a frying pan.

Minnie Pearl is introduced and she does a funny down home monologue, she also sings a funny yodeling song.

Carol and Minnie play a couple of Southern ladies in Paris. Harvey plays a conceited Charles De Gaulle.

There is a spoof of "Bonnie And Clyde". Carol and Lawford are the title duo, Harvey and Minnie play Buck and Blanche. Minnie has some of the funniest lines parodying Estelle Parsons.

Carol, Lawford and Minnie do 1960s style song about a city man and a country girl.

Lawford plays the owner of a rubber plantation in the Amazon. Carol is a mail order bride but she can't compare to his first wife. She tries to do everything for him, Lawford cracks up a few times.

Carol and Peter start a song and Carol suddenly laughs raucously as the cue card man messes up. They then talk about the hats Peter wore in his movies, showing some stills. They sing "A Couple Of Swells" from "Easter Parade" and are joined by Minnie and the dancers.

Carol sings her theme and the guests sign her book.
