View Full Version : I never knew Mama died
This showed up in my YouTube feed. A thing about the aftermath of Mama’s funeral. It’s about a half an hour long. Was it from The Carol Burnett Show?

Thanks. I don’t remember that one.
Luckily for TV history, Mama got better.

If your Dudeitis lasts longer than 4 hours, consult your physician immediately.

Yeah, sweetie, honey, baby (using some Eunice names used for another actress at the Pepper Pot Playhouse, right before she decked her), this TV movie is available on one of the DVD sets for the first 2 seasons.

BestTVever 03-05-2026, 06:47 AM The TV Show Eunice got good ratings and was the springboard into Mamas Family. Vicki has said that Mamas Family probably is the wildest show with continuation. Mama died, she had various sons that show up once and never again.
In the movie Eunice was it the first appearance by Vint? Or he did it once on the Burnett show once?

Yes, there are probably other threads about continuity. One lapse I remember vaguely is Effie. I think in some episodes she is Thelma's sister-in-law, so she is Effie Harper. In another or others she is Thelma's cousin, with the last name Crowley.

I think Vickie once joked it's still a mystery exactly how many children Mama has. I think I remember her being like, "Who knows how many Harper children are roaming around, maybe some that were never shown or mentioned!" lol
Once on the Carol Burnett Show, they mentioned a Mary Ellen and there are some ppl torn if she was the Ellen we know or yet another child
