Beverly Hillbillies
I love watching the Beverly Hillbillies. I think that is one of the funniest shows that has ever been made. I like to see a country family from the hills move to the luxuries of Beverly Hills. I would love to have the money to live out in Beverly Hills or in Malibu, where you have all the famous rock stars, athletes, and movie stars that live out there. They also have all the drug rehabs out there to accommodate the rich and famous. I guess no matter how rich or famous you might be, we are all vulnerable to the powers of drugs.
Money is a drug to me and I don’t think Jed Clampett or Granny ever got the taste of that drug. What makes the Beverly Hillbillies so funny is the fact they still lived their lives, as if they were still in the hills of Tennessee. You never seen the family really take advantage of all the millions of dollars they had. It seem like Jethro with his 6th grade education had the most use of Jed’s millions, but he never really went overboard either. I’m sure there are bankers out there that see the show and are envious of Mr. Drysdale. I guess all bankers would love to have someone with millions of dollars in their bank, but never any reasons to spend all that money.
The theme song from the Beverly Hillbillies is a very catchy tune that I’m sure most people in your office could sing along, if you started belching out the lyrics. I think a sitcom that is funny and has a great theme song will survive for many years. It’s been many decades since the Beverly Hillbillies have been made and you can still see the show running on TBS (the Superstation) or a network like TV Land. I would imagine the show will be on for many generations to come. I would also guess that the people that created the show and starred in the show could have never imagined that it would still be as popular as it is so many years later.
