Carol Burnett: Love to do 'Glee' and '30 Rock,' but not 'Saturday Night Live'

Carol Burnett would be very glad to have some time together with the cast of "Glee."

The television comedy-variety legend expressed her desire to guest on the FOX hit both during and after a performance Tuesday night (May 18) in Schenectady, N.Y., one stop on her tour modeled on the question-and-answer sessions she staged with her studio audience in the weekly opening of her classic CBS show.

"Oh, I would definitely do it," six-time Emmy winner Burnett tells Zap2it of the response she'd have to a call from the "Glee" makers. "I'd do whatever they wanted me to, but I'd like to have a few scenes with Jane Lynch. I love her."

Burnett says she'd also be pleased to get an invitation from the NBC sitcom "30 Rock," but -- Facebook campaigns aside -- she's not looking to follow her longtime friend Betty White in her recent "Saturday Night Live" hosting gig: "No one can top Betty. Why even try to be an imitator? You just can't."

Being a best-selling author also suits Burnett, since her autobiography "This Time Together: Laughter and Reflection" currently ranks third on the New York Times hardcover nonfiction list.

"I am stunned, absolutely stunned," she says of its success. "I started it just as a book about doing the questions and answers with the audience, and I wanted to put some anecdotes down -- like ones about Tim [Conway] and Harvey [Korman], and how I found Vicki [Lawrence], then it kind of morphed into a quasi-memoir. I enjoyed writing it very much."
