Popular Post Green Dash Posted January 4, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2015 Donna Douglas, Ellie May from The Beverly Hillbillies, has passed away at the age of 81.http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2015/01/03/beverly-hillbillies-star-donna-douglas-dead-at-81-reports-say/Her road to stardom was an interesting one. Her car had broken down on a rural road on the outskirts of Winfall, VA. and a friendly trucker stopped by and gave her a ride to the nearest gas station. They stayed in contact over the years and like many truckers, the Good Samaritan eventually moved to Hollywood and became a casting director. The rest, as they say, is history.There are many drivers nowadays that would not have stopped. 13 Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E9V8 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 I try to watch The Beverly Hillbillies every morning on MeTV. Here in my neighborhood it's on at 6:30AM ~ right after Petticoat Junction. Quote TerryJulian, PA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Dash Posted January 4, 2015 Author Share Posted January 4, 2015 I.................probably wouldn't have had time to stop. I never would have thunk it.I probably wouldn't have stopped either.

Popular Post farmer52 Posted January 4, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2015 She was one of my favorites along with the girls from Petticoat Junction. That was back in the days when they did not have to show everything to be sexy. And in public they appeared to be real people, not a bunch of crackhead jerks like today. 7 Quote Ken PRR Country and Charter member of the "Mack Pack" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Dash Posted January 4, 2015 Author Share Posted January 4, 2015 Ahhh, Petticoat Junction. Something for everyone in that cast.To this day I can't pic a favorite between Betty Jo, Bobbie Jo, and Billie Jo. 1 Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmer52 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Billie Jo (Meredith MacRae) was my favorite but all were hot to a young boy. And then there was the town of Hooterville..... Some other shows were Andy Griffith, Dick Van Dyke show, Green Acres, My Three Sons, and Leave It To Beaver to name a few. Ah the good old days of TV. 2 Quote Ken PRR Country and Charter member of the "Mack Pack" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were gettin' wood from Miss JaneShe was several notches better than Granny, Mrs. Drysdale, and Cousin Pearl....eeewwww. I bet she liked "reverse cowboy" with spurs.

grayhair Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Yea for the "good old days of TV" except it was black and white and I had to get up off my ass and go across the room to change the channel or adjust the volume. Of course there were some good aspects... It didn't cost me $220./month for 450 channels half of which are shopping channels and a bunch of dud movies. I dumped HBO from the lineup. Their content is less and less quality every year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
