What was your favorite Beverly Hillbillies storyline?

When Granny gave Mrs. Drysdale her "special" medicine and got her sloshed.

When Jethro became a beatnik

Jethro Bodine: Double-Naught Spy

I liked any episode that featured Miss Hathaway.

The one where Ellie Mae is tag teamed bareback by Jethro and her chimpanzee.

This one

R2 yeah the beatnick story was hilarious. Granny thinking all the beats are putting a hex on her still cracks me up.

I loved the Sheila Kuehl progressive sociology student, aching to throw the shackles off the Clampetts that banker Drysdale imposed.

I loved the cross-sitcom stories featuring the casts of Petticoat Junction and Green Acres.

And the whole Herbie the gorilla mix-up, with Granny forcing the overall-clad gorilla to do chores (straw hat and red bandana included).

Jethro's transition.

Granny discovers the cure for the common cold (puts some things in a poultice). Problem is that the poultice takes several days to "work."

I loved the interaction with Mrs dryad ale and granny!

Uncle Jed buys a movie studio

Miss Hathaway brings Elly May to her Sisters of Sappho meeting.

The one where Jethro and Ellie May each try to seduce Miss Hathaway in order to determine if she likes boys or girls.

Any episode with Jethro in his speedo lounging around the cee-ment pond.

Some of my favorites are when the Clampets when to England and all the mix ups that happened there.

God I love this show. I love episodes with Aunt Pearl and Mrs. Drysdale, both actresses were fierce scene stealers!

I've been binging the Beverly Hillbillies channel on PlutoTV the last few days.

Agree with R3. The Double naught spy storyline was great.

In the double naught spy show didn't Ellie Mae call Jethro either a "double nut spy" and/or a "nut nut"?

I thought Jed and granny were husband and wife.

When Jethro sees the psychiatrist to get his certificate of health for school.

The one where Mrs. Drysdale says her mother has "never been west of Copley Square".

When Granny caught Jethro cornholing Dash Rip Rock in the cement pond and gave em both a good whooping.

Mrs, Drysdale: “Well I never!”

Granny: “I bet you haven’t, honey?”

Can’t remember the episode, but there was a stage mom bringing her tween daughter to the mansion to audition for something, performing gymnastic back flips in place.

Granny and Jed (whispering): “Pitiful, just pitiful,” because they thought she had some strange mental affliction

It wasn’t on the mother show, it was a crossover episode on Petticoat Junction, but the episode where granny thinks that Steve and Betty Jo’s baby is a hairy beast, (when it is actually the dog sleeping in the stroller) , had me laughing out loud from beginning to end.

Hard to choose between the feud episodes and the ones where the smart businessmen talk themselves into believing Granny developed a rocket fuel that had already put men on the moon and Jed was building secret military vehicles called Crawdads.

( Classified Reconnaissance And Weapon-capable Deep-sea Amphibious Dredge)

The one where Sonny Drysdale showed Jethro how to whip up a Dirty Sanchez.

Wee-doggy!

When Granny was feuding with the federal weather commission about their wrong forecasts.

Tubi TV also has the first two seasons on demand. Last night I watched the pilot (which was awkwardly called [italic]The Hillbillies of Beverly Hills[/italic]) and the first two official episodes, in which Jerry Scroggins sings a jingle for Kellogg's just after the theme song.

It alternated. One week they would do cornflakes, the next week it would be Winston cigarettes.

Happy Possum Day

The one where Granny finds an ostrich and thinks it's a chicken that ate some of her medicine.

This Kelloggs commercial they integrated into the show was kind of catchy.

It's FUN to buy food !

When Duke, the Clampett's bloodhound, got Mrs. Drrysdale's poodle pregnant.

I think it was the first one where neighborhood kids shows up at the Clampett's for Halloween and granny pities them because she thought their gruesome masks were their faces.

Jethro's Friend

I love the story where Mr. Drysdale is feuding with his secretarial pool. When they're protesting their wages, Drysdale asks a British girl if she'd like a few more pounds. She excitedly says yes and he tells her to eat starchy foods, then breaks out laughing.

[quote] there was a stage mom bringing her tween daughter to the mansion to audition for something, performing gymnastic back flips in place.

A few years later that child had grown up enough to be fucking Rick James who changed her name to Teena Marie and produced her music.

Unfunniest show ever, right up there with I Love Lucy. Terrible, juvenile humour.

Anything with Mrs. Dryesdale. Her discomfort brings to mind Barbara Bush being trapped nextdoor to Jeb and his Mexican family.

The Bel-Arabs

Cynthia Fenwick and Widow Fenwick.

^^ Skinny Cynthy!

The House of Granny Salon and Boo-teek

^It's French, "House of Grann-ay"...I like how, whenever something has happened to make Mr. Drysdale have a nervous collapse, Miss Jane soothes his throbbing temples and revives him by applyinga compress of cool crisp 100 Dollar bills.

The Ms. Chickadee storyline still cracks me up after multiple viewings.

[quote]Boy what they don't want for their money! You gotta clean the house, you gotta cook, you gotta marry the kid. Wowee wow wow wow!

The hippie storyline where Granny runs into the hippies in Griffith Park. They think she is the coolest thing ever and all want to smoke some crawdads.

Granny tells them smoking some crawdads would be dandy but first she has to find a little pot.
