As a teenager, I loved 'The Carol Burnett Show' and 'Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In,' and I lived to watch 'Monty Python.'

Catherine O'Hara

Carol Burnett probably had the biggest influence on me as kid. Although I was very young and watched her a lot in reruns, I was mesmerized by the way she transformed, by her physical comedy and the rolling laughter from the live studio audience. I loved her most as Scarlett O'Hara and her well known Cleaning Lady character.

Christine Lakin

Lady Gaga is proof that David Bowie raped Carol Burnett.

Christopher Titus

I remember watching 'The Carol Burnett Show' with my parents as a kid. All those weird outfits she wore, like turtlenecks and long skirts, really stayed in my head.

Chris Benz

I loved the late Gilda Radner. I love Carol Burnett and Lily Tomlin.

Tracey Ullman

Everyone has fond memories of 'The Carol Burnett Show' and the characters we did.

Vicki Lawrence

As a kid, I was always inspired by the comedy of Carol Burnett. I loved Dick Clair and Jenna McMahon's 'Mama's Family'.

Del Shores

Well, I'm old enough to remember Carol Burnett, and I would love a variety show type of thing.

Bianca Del Rio

I was always singing and dancing for my mother when I wasn't glued to the television watching I Love Lucy or the Carol Burnett Show.

Debra Messing

I think there have always been funny women, from Carol Burnett to Joan Rivers. When the audience sees a woman, they innately know she's worked twice as hard to get there, she's had to prove that she can be the leader, first, and then be funny on top of it. She has to emit a confidence that she's in control.

Wendy Liebman

Carol Burnett was particularly funny. She swore for the first time on television on Larry Sanders.

Garry Shandling

Burnett fidgeted. She had never seen Burnett like this. He looked like a kid who needed to go to the bathroom.

C.C. Hunter

In terms of comedians, I loved, growing up, Jonathan Winters, Sid Caesar, Jackie Gleason, Phil Silvers, Carol Burnett, all those people.

Ed O'Neill

I used to watch a lot of Nick at Nite as a kid, and it would play the original 'Saturday Night Live,' 'The Carol Burnett Show,' and 'Laugh-In.'

Baron Vaughn

I grew up in a time where on things like 'The Red Skeleton Show' or even to a certain extent on 'The Carol Burnett Show,' people wrote in the breakouts or ad-libs. They were scripted to look spontaneous. So I always had a dislike of that kind of thing.

Lorne Michaels

I loved pretending to be a middle-aged Jewish woman. I just wanted to do what I saw Gilda Radner and Carol Burnett doing. But I'm not a particularly good impressionist. It was never my strong suit.
