As the son of Harvey Korman I want to add my two cents.
22 January 2018
First off one of the reviewers suggest that the Nutt House was on ABC it wasn't it was on NBC after Night Court.I would also like to add had it been a sitcom with 3 cameras the jokes/premise of the plots would have worked better.IMy father Harvey Korman who was a exceptional comedian/actor on Burnett worked better with the immediacy of having the audience react naturally.When you do a 1 camera sitcom like say Sledge Hammer another Alan Spencer production the actors are forced to have to take a beat venture a guess how long a laugh would normally take had there been a audience there. Site gags and physical comedy only works when there is a immediate response from the audience.The only thing I can say about my fathers deft comedic talents and Cloris's was they range every laugh they could out of those scripts because they had a inate ability to know how long to wait for a laugh to desolve in their heads because speaking.Again this show would have been more successfull had it been done infront of a studio audience.
