The master of making corpses out of co-stars finally gets his spotlight.
One of America's best loved comedians, Tim Conway (The Carol Burnett Show, Mchale's Navy) is featured here in hilarious TV clips from the 1960s. Conway portrays the popular character, Dag Hereford. A self-professed expert on everything, Dag proves to be the classic bumbler. Whether he's a horse-racing jockey, wine taster, prison warden or one of the country's leading race car drivers, Conway hams it up with stars of the day in rare, stand-up performances not seen in over 30 years.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The 'Dag Hereford' character originated on Conway's 1967 CBS summer replacement series, which ran for only four episodes before cancellation.
Conway's technique of forcing co-stars to break character became his trademark on The Carol Burnett Show, making unscripted laughter part of the broadcast.
