In Such Good Company: Eleven Years of Laughter, Mayhem, and Fun in the Sandbox by Carol Burnett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is a fairly well written and very entertaining book of Carol Burnett’s CBS television program. As with most all book tumbling out by various celebrities, this book reads as the celebrity has dictated the book into a recording device and then transcribed. This leads to a book badly in need of a good writer.
The contents are well worth the writing, if one is a fan of the series. This book iks such an insiders look, that those not knowledgeable of the series will be lost. However, parts and entire sketch scripts are presented which is a bit of a retread for fans of the series.
The best part of this easy to read book are the inside stories of the cast and other celebrities that were part of the series.
Bottom line: I recommend the book. 7 out of ten points.
