Can you name these classic 'Carol Burnett Show' characters?

'Carol Burnett and Friends' will tickle your funny bone and your trivia bone.

 
Long before Saturday Night Live, there was Carol Burnett. The brilliant comedian shaped sketch comedy on television with her side-splitting series The Carol Burnett Show.

Over 11 seasons, Carol Burnett and her cast created countless memorable characters. However, a few of them became recurring favorites.

Today, you can catch them on MeTV in Carol Burnett and Friends, the syndicated version of those original classics. The skits were the "Church Lady" and "Wayne's World" of the 1970s. Let's see how well you remember them.
