Hi, I was wondering if anyone had any of the Carol Burnett and Friends Family Sketches available for sale or trade? I have a decent bit of stuff I would be willing to trade. Just let me know....I used to have like 22 of the 26 Family Sketches on 2 tapes but I accidentally taped over one. If anyone does, let me know. Thanks...

USA.network had it.I'll share with you some person reasons why there doesn't seems to be a interest within the syndication market for the Burnett show.Each person on the Show especially the performers and writers and directors negotiate their peace of the pie.The networks interested would have to negotiate with each performer separately after the entical offer is made to Carol and the estate of her deceased husband who owns the rights.The would offer for 180 out of let say 286.Agents,lawyers would then get involved.Columbia house has on video some of carol Best shows with intro's with Carol,my dad harvey korman and tim Conway.it would be expensive for any synd. market to purchase the rights.it's unfortunate but the bottom line is the financial demands and profit margins.everyone involved would have to be guaranteed a profit.The advertisers,the network,the performers,writers and directors and producers would have to get their peace of the pie.email personally for any mf or c.B imfo at CHPK@Erols.com
