OK but it annoyed me on the Beverly Hillbillies that they were presented as some famous dudes whom we all should know. I sort of like their fiddlin and diddlin but whenever they showed up at the Clampetts (within the show that is, the theme song was iconic), I always thought the show came to screeching halt.
