OMG! It's Harvey Korman's Son!

<p> </p><p>CAROL BURNETT:<br />Danny Kaye’s show went off the air in 1967 and The Carol Burnett Show was premiering that fall. All I could think about was We need a Harvey Korman. We need a consummate actor with comedy chops to spare.<br />I believe we had a call in to his agent when one afternoon I happened to see Harvey himself headed for his car in the CBS parking lot.<br />I shouted “Harvey!”<br />And then proceeded to jump him.<br />I seem to remember leaning him back over a car hood.<br />“Please please be on our show! You're the very best! PLEASE?”<br />It wasn't exactly the most professional way to offer someone a job but it<br />worked. Harvey signed on and I was in heaven.</p><p>BURT LANCASTER (OSCAR-WINNING ACTOR):<br />“Chris your father is a brilliant actor. He creates these incredibly believable human characters. On live television no less.”</p><p>PETER MARSHALL (Emmy-Award-winning host of Hollywood Squares)<br />“I always tell people that Chris loves me so much that when he was six years old and I was in the hospital he chose to visit me over breakfast at IHOP.”</p><p>MEL BROOKS (Oscar-winning writer/director)<br />(Starred Harvey Korman in Blazing Saddles High Anxiety and History<br />of the World Part 1): “Chris I loved your father even though he could be a real asshole.”</p><p> </p>
