Legendary comedic actor Harvey Korman died today. He was 81.
The actor, possibly best known for his stint on the "The Carol Burnett Show" and in the film "Blazing Saddles," died at UCLA Medical Center after suffering complications from the rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm four months ago.
Carol Burnett's assistant told the AP the actress was devastated by the news, but she has not yet released a statement.
He is survived by his wife and four children.
91. They can say it in a nicer way!
I loved watching Harvey and Tim Conway try to keep it together on the Carol Burnett show. My mom saw them last year and said still funny as ever. Harvey.. you will be missed!

104. Rst in peace, Mr. Korman. And thank you for the gift of laughter! It was a ritual in my family to watch the Carol Burnett Show. Loved to watch Harvey work with Carol and Tim.
And we can't forget his work with Mel Brooks! Ahhhh, I'm smiling now ^,^
Thank you, sir! I've enjoyed your movies and the C.B. Show with my kids and will continue to pass those memories down to my future grand kids! You will live on and bring laughter to new generations :o)
Heavan has more laughter now! Imagine it now! All of those comedians up there
