Synopsis
Eunice's brother Phillip (guest Roddy McDowall) stays over with "The Family" while in town; a silent sketch involving a championship pool game from 1908 between two players (Tim and guest Ken Berry); and "High Hat", a spoof of 1930's Fred Astaire/Ginger Rogers musicals.
Roddy McDowall makes his third and final appearance in a "Family" sketch as Eunice's brother Philip, a world-renowned writer whose accomplishments are little appreciated and less respected by his ever-bickering relatives. Home to receive an honorary degree from a local university, poor Philip is constantly criticized by Mama (Vicki Lawrence). Aired during the eleventh and last CBS season for Carol Burnett's variety show, this episode allows frequent guest star Ken Berry and regular Tim Conway to showcase their considerable gifts for physical comedy in a silent-screen sketch about two slapstick pool players. Everyone returns for "High Hat," a takeoff on Top Hat, with Ken and Carol making like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers.
