Iconic TV star CAROL BURNETT, along longtime co-stars TIM CONWAY and VICKI LAWRENCE, will sit down for a rare Q&A session with an audience of SiriusXM listeners to celebrate the DVD release of "The CAROL BURNETT Show," which won 25 EMMY AWARDS during its epic run. The special event will be hosted by comedian AMY SCHUMER.
"SIRIUSXM's Town Hall with CAROL BURNETT " will air on SIRIUSXM's Raw Dog Comedy channel 99 on THURSDAY, SEP. 27th at 6p ET, with encore presentations on Raw Dog Comedy SEP. 28th at 2p, SEP. 29th at noon and SEP. 30th at 10a and 6p. It will also air on SEP. 28th at 7p and SEP. 29th at 10a and 6p (all times ET) on SIRIUSXM Stars channel 107.
"I always loved when we opened 'The CAROL BURNETT Show' by talking with the audience, so this is a wonderful way for us to revisit this tradition so many years later," BURNETT said. "I look forward to sitting down with TIM, VICKI and AMY on SIRIUSXM to hear from our fans, answer their questions and have a little fun."
"CAROL BURNETT and her co-stars are comedic legends who have brought laughter and joy to generations of fans," SIRIUSXM Pres./Chief Content Officer SCOTT GREENSTEIN said. "With our special 'Town Hall' series, fans and listeners nationwide will now be able to hear personally from these comic geniuses how they were able make us laugh over the years and the stories behind a show cherished by so many."
"CAROL BURNETT is beyond an inspiration to me. She's probably the reason that I got into comedy, and definitely the reason that I have a television show of my own now," AMY SCHUMER noted. "She has made me laugh probably harder than anyone I've ever seen in my life. Because of her openness and willingness to share herself and be giving not only with her making people laugh, but with her laughter as well, she's definitely paved the way for me and most other female comedians that I know."
