The big, huge Beverly Hillbillies quiz
Are you an expert on the Clampetts?
The Beverly Hillbillies was one of the surprise hits of the Sixties. Nobody could have predicted that this rags-to-riches sitcom would become one of the true pop culture phenomenons of the decade. The show was a hit as soon as the Clampetts arrived in Beverly Hills on day one. It lasted for nine seasons, from 1962–1971.
Today, the Clampetts are household names. We can all sing along that infectious theme song. "Texas tea… Swimming pools!"
So let's put your Beverly Hillbillies knowledge to the test. Can you strike it rich and answer 20/30 correctly?

"You struck it rich! Shucks, you're practically related to the Clampetts." My maiden name was Clement. I got referred to as "Clampett" a LOT by many classmates. It was better than some of the other nicknames that were used ;)

MISTER ED is, in fact, related to THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES in that Irene Ryan appears on one episode as Granny. She's never specifically named, but it's clear that's who she's playing!
Your right, Irene Ryan appeared in Season 6 Episode 5 of the "Mr Ed" show in 1965 called "Love and the Single Horse", in the end credits she was only listed as herself. The clothes she wore gave the appearance of Dasie Mae Moses and the way she talked and how she mentioned doctoring Wilbur Post also hints to her Granny character. The best way this can be explained is that in 1962 Wilbur Post lived at 17230 Valley Spring Road in the Hidden Valley and in 1966 The Clampettes had just moved into their place at 750 Bel Air Road in Beverly Hills. The two addresses are only 24 to 39 minutes apart. Mr. Ed being a horse would not have wanted to arouse too much suspicion so the musuem would have been close to his home. Granny being new to the area could have been visiting the museum when she came upon Wilbur and Mr. Ed. The clincher would have been if Jed or someone else from the family had stepped in to grab Granny for a slpit second, that would have made a great little segway.

Got 29. Did not know the band. My mom’s family was all from the Ozarks and East Tennessee. We weren’t merely in on the joke... great show.
