5.0 out of 5 stars Biography - Carol Burnett, March 5, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Biography - Carol Burnett [VHS] (VHS Tape)

An excellent life story of one of the greatest queens of comedy. I throughly enjoyed learning more about Carol Burnett. Her struggles in life make her comedy that much more appealing. For anyone who enjoyed the Carol Burnett show, A&E once again does a wonderful job in their biography video.
