Tim Conway’s “rookie angel” act leaves Harvey Korman doubled over in uncontrollable laughter

As a rookie angel, Tim Conway has Harvey Korman in stitches in a hysterical sketch. These two comedic legends delivered an absolutely hilarious and iconic sketch while playing a couple of heavenly beings. Watch the short clip to see how Tim’s laugh-out-loud antics caused Harvey to burst into laughter on multiple occasions.

The Carol Burnett Show is a program that continues to keep people rolling with laughter. Even though the show has been off the air for decades, its endless lineup of classic, memorable skits will still have you laughing from beginning to end. It’s a show that anyone and everyone can and will enjoy.

As great as the show was, arguably the best part of The Carol Burnett Show was any skits with Tim and Harvey in them. Tim’s hilarious antics were often too much for Harvey. More often than not, Tim would do or say something that caused Harvey to break character and burst into laughter.

A clip posted on YouTube has Tim playing a rookie angel. Harvey is the veteran heavenly being who has just been informed that he is being assigned a cloudmate. Harvey is not pleased about the news likely because he has a sneaking suspicion that he’ll have to show the new guy the ropes. He was most certainly correct!

Tim exits the elevator with his luggage and immediately begins circling Harvey. This move quickly sets off Harvey, who is moments away from striking Tim. Quickly getting over his anger and rage, Harvey welcomes his cloudmate to his new living area.

Tim, with only a few words and a look of unease and discomfort, causes Harvey to burst into laughter.

But things only get worse for Harvey’s character. Tim tries and tries to fit in, doing what he can to help, but he fails miserably and hilariously every time.

Job 8:21 “The time will come when your mouth will be full of laughing, and cries of joy will come from your lips.”

There’s a reason many comedians hesitated before stepping on stage with Tim Conway. He didn’t just stretch the rules — he quietly stepped outside them. A sketch would move along exactly as planned, the timing steady and everything under control. Then Tim would add one small detail that seemed to come from nowhere. No setup, no explanation, just a perfectly misplaced moment.
