Cool as a rule, but sometimes bad is bad.

I wasn’t a country music fan by any means, but it was pretty easy to recognize he was very good at his craft with the banjo and guitar.

Re: Roy Clark dead at 85
I remember his appearances on The Beverly Hillbillies more than any. Hee Haw was a little too corn for me most of the time.
He was a good entertainer, and a great guitarist. He became one with the guitar and packaged it that way.
That's not an easy thing to do.

Or BR-549, or "if it weren't for bad luck, we'd have no luck at all..."
What made it work is that everyone watching and everyone on the show knew it was completely corny, and just made fun of themselves and didn't care. Not saying I could watch it for a marathon 8 hour netflix session, but maybe I could.
Mostly I enjoy it now b/c of the nostalgia. Reminds me of being a kid watching at home. I like thinking about the simplicity of my childhood back in rural Kentucky. It's peaceful.People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.

I loved Archie.
I did watch Hee Haw but some of it I didn't find too funny. Of course Junior Samples was hilarious in making fun of himself. But I grew weary of the fat folks jokes, the dumb hick stuff, and fake laugh tracks after a few years.
String Bean and Grandpa Jones were awesome too. Lots of stories with those two.
