Which Vicki Lawrence character originated on the Carol Burnett show went on to get her own spin off?
Correct answer: Thelma (mama) Harper

Vicki's direct approach got her a gig, a ploy which never works. Everyone else is "discovered", she wrote to Carol Burnet, and, boom, she waltzed into show biz. One in a million. Luck.

Absolutely love and adore the Carol Burnett Show. Wish they didn't end the show when they did.

I love watching Mama's Family. She is very funny. Channel 1248 airs reruns of Mama's Family.

Mama was so funny. I saw Carol Burnett as a young lady on an episode of the " Twilight Zone". Rod Serling called her discombobulated. Two classy yet funny women.

We always watched her show. She is a very funny lady.

Didn't Vicki get her shot on the show by winning a look-alike contest? (Contestants competed to find someone looking like Carol B.)

I love Mama's family

Most people don't know that Vicki Lawrence was the first to record the song "The night the lights went out in Georgia" a big hit for a Reba McEntire. It was Vicki Lawrence's husband that wrote it.

There was at least one episode of that Mama skit, early on, where Carol Burnett played Mama and Vicki played Eunice. It was definitely better the other way.

Player #6563898 Alex, I was so confused when I happened to watch an episode. Since I wasn't a regular viewer, I was perplexed as to who was who!
