TV Shows on DVD  - Hee Haw

x

Pickin' and grinnin', singin' and spinnin' tall tales and corny jokes, the citizens of Kornfield Kounty landed on television in 1969 with the arrival of "Hee Haw" as a summer replacement series for "The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour." Each week co-hosts Buck Owens and Roy Clark and the cast of comedians and musicians would welcome the biggest stars in country music to perform their songs and help deliver one-liners. Conceived as a rural alternative to "Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In," "Hee Haw" ranked in the top 20 nationwide when CBS dropped the show in 1971 in an attempt to de-countrify the network's programming. It was quickly picked up and became the longest-running weekly syndicated original series in television history. The last "new" episode aired in 1992. Looks like the non-network executives had the last hee-haw.
