A Mother's Day special hosted by Carol Burnett and her late daughter Carrie Hamilton, featuring interviews with guest celebrities and their mothers. Fun time but rather nostalgic with the passing of Carrie and John.

Welcome Home, America! - A USO Salute to America's Sons and Daughters (1991) (TV)

A broadcast of a concert honoring the United States armed forces and fifty years of service by the USO. This is a great document featuring speeches by former presidents and their men combined with some wonderful musical performances. You'll see Dick Cheney and Colin Powell all smiles as they stand shoulder to shoulder waving to the black tie audience. Also, a standout gospel performance from Miss Sandi Patty, a definite high point. Tom Selleck, a great American, handles the hosting duties initially and Tony Danza brings it home with some enthusiastic tap dancing. Believe it.

Very stylized show, nice artsy opening credits. But the show is just so-so. One of those sitcoms where you don't really laugh much.
