Ken Berry Takes it Easy. Ken Berry, a TV fixture for decades, with starring roles on shows such as F Troop and Mayberry R.F.D., says he was basically forced into retirement following the 1990 cancellation of Mama's Family, the Vicki Lawrence-led spinoff of the Carol Burnett Show.
While working with Abbott & Costello, he met Dee Arlen, an actress whom he credits with getting him his first big break. This was Berry's first performance on the Las Vegas strip. Then, in 1957, Berry was asked by Ken Murray, a well-known vaudeville performer, to join his stage variety show, The Ken Murray Blackouts.
