'Hot Smoke and Sassafras!' TV Land Celebrates the New Year With 'The Beverly Hillbillies Best Dang New Year's Marathon' Beginning December 31
NEW YORK, Dec. 18 -- TV Land rings in 2008 with 27 hours of non-stop Clampett wackiness and Granny's unforgettable colloquialisms during "The Beverly Hillbillies Best Dang New Year's Marathon" beginning Monday, December 31, at 6:00PM (all times ET/PT). Viewers will be "happier than a cat at a fish fry" with episodes like "Jethro Goes to School" in which Max Baer, Jr. (Jethro) also plays Jethro's twin sister, Jethrine, in drag, and an appearance by the late Sharon Tate in "Possum Day" as Miss Hathaway's dark- headed assistant at the Commerce Bank.
As part of this celebration, TVLand.com will stream full episodes starting December 31, with weekly updates. The website will feature character bios, a comprehensive episode guide, and photo gallery.
TVLand.com visitors will also be able to test their 'hill-folk' knowledge with The Beverly Hillbillies trivia game.
The Beverly Hillbillies aired on CBS from 1962 - 1971. Accidentally discovering oil on their property, the newly rich Clampetts move to Beverly Hills where they find that their mountain lifestyle is quite different than that of their upper-class neighbors.
