The Beverly Hillbillies aired on CBS from 1962 to 1971. The TV series centered on Jed Clampett, a poor widow living with his daughter and mother-in-law in the Ozarks. When he strikes it rich after finding oil on his property, Jed moves his family, including cousin Jethro Bodine, to Beverly Hills. The seven-time Emmy-nominated series was a huge hit and made stars of Buddy Ebsen (who played Jed Clampett), Donna Douglas (Elly May Clampett), Irene Ryan (Granny), and Max Baer Jr. (Jethro).
