Carol & Company is a comedy program airing on NBC-TV in the United States during 1990 and 1991.

Carol & Company applied an unusual repertory approach to television comedy. Every week, Carol Burnett and her fellow players performed a different half-hour comedy playlet. Only the performers remained the same from week to week; there were no ongoing characters or plots, although there were guest stars from time to time.

Carol & Company began as a midseason replacement in January 1990, but was subsequently picked up for a full season and ran until July 1991.

In 1990 Swoosie Kurtz won an Emmy for her appearance in the episode tilled Reunion.
