|Although silly, the show is powerful in illustrating how material possessions are not what define a person. Buddy Ebsen stars as Jed Clampett, patriarch of the Clampett family, who became a multi-millionaire virtually overnight after striking oil on his land in the Ozark Mountains and moved with his family to Beverly Hills, California, yet the Clampetts never let their newly obtained wealth affect who they are as people, maintaining moral and simplistic lifestyles throughout the show's run. Also stars Irene Ryan as Jed's mother-in-law Daisy May "Granny" Moses, Donna Douglas as his beautiful, tomboyish and animal-loving daughter Elly May Clampett, Max Baer as dimwitted yet good-natured Clampett cousin Jethro Bodine, Raymond Bailey as unscrupulous banker Milburn Drysdale and Nancy Kulp as Drysdale's secretary Jane Hathaway. Popular throughout its run, ''The Beverly Hillbillies'' fell victim in 1971 to CBS' Rural Purge, but has remained popular in syndicated reruns ever since and led to the 1981 reunion TV movie ''Return of the Beverly Hillbillies'', a 1993 TV special titled ''The Legend of the Beverly Hillbillies'' and a feature film remake of the series that same year, starring Jim Varney as Jed, Erika Eleniak as Elly May, Cloris Leachman as Granny, Diedrich Bader as Jethro, Dabney Coleman as Mr. Drysdale and Lily Tomlin as Miss Hathaway, with a cameo by Buddy Ebsen (in his final acting role) as his other famous TV character, [[Barnaby Jones]].
