The Beverly Hillbillies is an American situation comedy that originally aired for nine seasons on CBS from 1962 and 1971, starring Buddy Ebsen, Irene Ryan, Donna Douglas, and Max Baer, Jr. The story follows a peasant family from the woods who move to Beverly Hills, California, after discovering oil on their land. It is the first in a genre of "fish out of water"-themed television shows and was followed by other Henning-inspired country-cousin series on CBS. It is a Filmways production developed by writer Paul Henning. In 1963, Henning debuted Petticoat Junction, then in 1965, he inverted the rags-to-riches formula with Green Acres. The show laid the stage for subsequent culture-conflict television shows such as The Jeffersons, McCloud, The Nanny, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, and Doc. Numerous entertainment critics of the time panned it, but it rapidly became a massive ratings success for the majority of its nine-year run on CBS. The Beverly Hillbillies ranked among the top twenty most-watched shows on television for eight of its nine seasons, including twice as the most-watched program of the year, with a number of episodes remaining among the most-watched television episodes of all time. 20th Century Fox released a remake of the series in 1993 due to its enduring popularity.
