She then headed back to Korman’s dressing room to give him the news. … It is not in my makeup to be confrontational, but I knew this situation called for it and I was going to have to step up.” Carol Burnett Fires Harvey Kormanīurnett left the room and immediately phoned Korman’s agent, telling him that his client would no longer be working on “The Carol Burnett’s Show” after that night’s episode.
“He walked me backwards out into the hall, and he closed the door on me. “He told me I couldn’t dictate how he should feel or act, and that he’d just as soon go home and never come back after tonight’s show,” Burnett recalled.
