Because she doesn't work enough, she doesn't work enough.

She doesn't have enough jobs.

I have seen an episode of "Game of Games"

and I have never seen anybody be dropped

into that big a vat of macaroni and cheese.

Yeah.

As you did to somebody.

Yes.

The logistics of that have got to be insane.

Yeah, it's a big set.

It's a big-- and this season, this new season is bigger.

We had to use the biggest sound stage on this lot

in order to get the games in.

To spin two people around to the point of nausea--

Yep.

--And risk physical injury.

Right.

Anybody-- anybody, like, almost drown in that vat

of macaroni and cheese?

We pull them out pretty quickly.

Do you have lifeguards on standing by with special vests?

Well, they're not really lifeguards,

but yes, we have people to pull them out, and so--

it's not always macaroni and cheese.

Sometimes it's pea soup.

There's different things we drop them into.

Who writes your show, toddlers?

Uh-huh.

Yes.

[LAUGHTER]

Yes.

What?

You know what would be funny, Mommy?

If Mommy fell into--

into mashed potatoes.

Oh.

[LAUGHTER]

How old is that kid?

Well, that's--

That's a young kid.

That's a young kid.

That's actually a really good idea.

Just have a roomful of young people

and ask them what they want to see on TV and then create it.

That's right.

What if we had a roomful of sharp forks?

[LAUGHTER]

And they had to find their way out, blindfolded.

Was that coming up any time soon?

Actually, no--

That might be the Halloween version.

No one take that.

I'm writing it.

I'm writing it.

All right, you're writing it down.

By the way, you do a good impression of a child.

Thank you.

You really do.

I'm in touch.

Your family was in Greece recently.

We go to Greece on our holiday vacation.

Because Rita's family is from there.

Yes, and so therefore, there are no options to go anywhere else.

Uh huh.

Right.

We will go to Greece and that's that.

That's all there is to it.

It's pretty beautiful.

Well, it beats my family who had came

from Red Bluff, California.

So, it might be a little bit better

to go to Greece-- better water.

So you're on a nice, fancy yacht,

and you decide you're going to jump off the fancy yacht.

There's a-- can we see this?

I don't know how many takes you did.

Oh.

How many times did you jump off?

Well, this was my birthday.

I was just--

I wanted to show off the new hat and shirt

that I got for my 63rd birthday.

But we had-- we were--

it took a while.

Our production team went off.

If you have the--

you have an earlier take of this that didn't quite work out.

I haven't seen the earlier take.

Well, here's what-- we're going, and there I go, right by it.

Didn't quite have the same celebratory visual--

No.

--That we were looking for.

No.

But it is the same magic technology.

There we go.

But that was pretty high, but then I

saw your son jumped off a cliff.

OK, yeah.

How high was that because that--

I'm no judge of height.

I'm going to say it's six miles high.

This is him.

He marched up-- he swam to shore, climbed up on beach,

walked all the way up to the top of this mountain,

and he wasn't waiting more than three seconds

before he did this.

Look at this.

I mean, I cannot believe he did this.

That was him.

1, 2, 3, 4.

That's four seconds of hang time.

That's the type of fall that will

rip a watch off your wrist.

Is he usually a daredevil like that?

He-- yeah, he is.

Wow.

He rides motorcycles, and when he turned 21, he wanted to go--

so I said, what would you like for your birthday?

He said, (GRUFFLY) I want to go skydiving.

So, we--

Is that how he talks?

We went--

[LAUGHTER]

--After he ponders things.

So we went-- we went tandem skydiving.

Tandem, so you're attached to somebody

who knows what they're doing.

You freefall, and as you're free falling,

your face goes like this.

[LAUGHTER]

As you go-- because you're traveling

at, like, 250 miles an hour.

And then she popped the chute and we stopped,

and she was doing this thing of swinging us around, steering us

around.

Oh, wow.

And I had had a huge breakfast burrito

before the plane went off, and so I truly--

I begged her.

I'm just-- I was like a rag doll hanging

from this harness thing.

Please stop.

Please, please.

Stop, stop.

And we landed on this grass strip and all I could do

was sit on my rump, and I just had

to sit there for about seven minutes

waiting for my stomach to calm down, while other people were

coming down and landing.

Well, I have to say, maybe having a huge breakfast burrito

before you're going to jump out of a plane--

Bad call.

Bad.

Bad call.

Yes.

Had I been with you, I would have said,

don't eat the whole thing.

It was a damn good burrito though.

Oh, I'm sure.

I'm sure.

It was really good.

All right.

So, we're going to both be at the Golden Globes this year.

You're getting the Lifetime Achievement Award--

Cecil B. deMille Award.

Cecil deMille Award.

You're getting the Carol Burnett Award.

Yes, we're both getting--

[APPLAUSE]

Now--

That's exciting that first of all--

first of all, I'm just flattered and honored

that I'm getting that, but I'm so glad that this year--

Well, does this mean you're now going

to have a variety show on the air as well?

So there'll be this, the game show, and the--

And then the fork show.

I'm just excited because the fact

that you're getting the Cecil B. deMille Award when I'm getting

the Carol Burnett Award.

It's just going to be--

I'm so excited for you because I think that's so cool--

Oh, thank you.

--I get to be there on that show with you.

And likewise.

Yes.

You've-- you and I have been, essentially,

on television since VHS was first invented.

That is true.

It's literally about the same time.

One of the first times that I saw you and got

to know you was at something called the American Comedy

Awards.

Remember that?

Yes, it was just for the American comics.

Yes, and for some--

for some reason, I was there.

And it was an award show that was on for a little bit.

But this was 1984, 85--

Yeah.

--Something like that.

And you won for-- what did you win?

I have no idea.

You won-- I think you won for best female club comic.

OK.

Does that sound about right?

Sure.

Which means that you--

[LAUGHTER]

--You got to travel around the world and perform

at the Chuckle Hut--

Yeah.

And I was the best--

--And Laughs Incorporated.

--The best female to do that.

That's right.

I was the best female at the Chuckle Hut.

You were.

[LAUGHTER]

Yeah.

We're going to talk to Tom more after this.

We'll be back.
