on Carol Burnett tonight. Let's all keep our fingers crossed that they're not going to start it on all their shows now.

This was discussed on another thread here. Here’s what someone over there said:

Me-TV occasionally crunches Burnett show credits, but I notice that this happens rarely. It only seems to happen for time, and often the regular credits run over the final segment while the longer credits run faster on the outside. The first time I noticed this happening was the rerun of "The Funn Family". I've read that this was a 25-min. sketch, so to rerun it, Me-TV had to take everything else out of it, including the opening (aside from the title) and the closing (which was sped up to fit the remaining time).
