In a play on words to rival Buzzr’s Betty White Christmas, Decades on Thursday will present “A Christmas Carol”: 24 hours of Carol Burnett and Friends starting at 7 am ET.
Carol Burnett and Friends consists of edited half-hour versions of The Carol Burnett Show, which originally ran for 279 hour-long episodes over 11 seasons (1967-1978) on CBS.
In addition to Burnett, the sketch comedy show’s cast features Vicki Lawrence, Tim Conway, Harvey Korman and Lyle Waggoner. Guests during “A Christmas Carol” will include Carl Reiner, Vincent Price, Rock Hudson and, of course, Betty White.

Carol Burnett and Friends airs regularly on MeTV at 11 pm weekdays. You can also stream half-hour versions of the complete Carol Burnett Show for free from Shout Factory TV.
For hour-long episodes of The Carol Burnett Show, you can turn to Folk TV, which offers a free live stream, from 8pm to 10 pm weeknights.
Decades and MeTV are available free by hooking up an antenna to your TV set, as well as from many cable companies. For channel numbers in your area, visit the Decades and MeTV “Where to Watch” pages.
