Enough already.<br /><br />I turned on the tube this morning and it was on Bravo from last night's late night viewing.<br /><br />SJP's not so attractive hairdo was on The Actor's Studio, <span style="font-style: italic;">again</span>. I flipped to The Early Show and there were three dolled up SATC fans taking a quiz for a bag full of shoes. Clicked off the tube and turned on the radio. My regular morning show was doing a hybrid of Sex and the City Price is Right High/Low game about top-shelf shoes and bags. I moved on to NPR thinking I'd get some relief and there I found an exposé of Carrie's narcissism.<br /><br />guh.<br /><br />And! And! It was the lead to the more important, and too short, story (at least I think anyway) about the death of a terrific talent who will sorely be missed. Mr. Harvey Korman had to follow the in depth examination of a shoe-obsessed, self-involved, TV character.<br /><br />Just to name a few of my faves:<br />Prof von Klupp<br />Prof. Auguste Balls<br />Ed Higgins<br />Count de Monet<br />Monty Rushmore<br />Chef Gormaanda<br />Henry Snavely<br />Dr. Charles Montague<br />Hedley Lamarr<br />Baron Hinterstoisser<br />Col. Heindreich von Zeppel<br />Dr. Leinbach<br />and his myriad characters on The Carol Burnett Show.<br /><br />What a talent.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/thumb/b/b0/300px-Godothatvoodoo.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" src="http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/thumb/b/b0/300px-Godothatvoodoo.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Thank you Harvey.
