...role of the ineffectual old radical whose one positive act is a negative sacrifice, Morris Carnovsky strikes just the perfect understated note of pathos as Jacob, the part he played almost forty years ago in the original Group Theater production. As the domineering Jewish mother with implacable bourgeois aspirations, Carol Gustafson succeeds as the dislikable antagonist Bessie Berger with a tongue and manner as commanding as any lower-middle class Jewish mother struggling for the good life in America. Though Gustafson kibitzes a bit too much her performance lets us see, as Ralph comes to see, that life made Bessie...
...most competitive categories. Logical perhaps, but disappointing for the invisible winners. Informed by the academy that he was to be given a special Emmy for outstanding program and individual achievement, a delighted Dick Cavett wrote an acceptance speech and, since he could not be at the Hollywood ceremonies, asked Carol Burnett to deliver it. Then he sat back to watch the proceedings on television, only to have it slowly dawn on him that his Emmy was never going to come up.

...readying for New York, faring better, on the whole, than the ones from whenever the show took place before director Josh Rubins updated its topical references. Paul Seltzer and Andy Cadiff do well by the Shakespeare-quoting thugs who keep Deanne McKinstry from walking out of the show, and Carol Dines does a fine job with her big number, the one about how if a Harris pat means a Paris hat, she'll just be faithful in her fashion.
