Hillbillies

text sizeAAA
August 29, 2002

We play an excerpt from an early 1970s sketch from the National Lampoon Radio Hour featuring Harold Ramis, John Belushi, Gilda Radner, Bob Perry, Brian Murray-Doyle and Joe Flaherty. It's a pseudo-documentary about a tribe of hillbillies and how they all migrated to the New World. This parody is being aired because CBS-TV is planning a reality show based on the premise of the 1960s sitcom The Beverly Hillbillies. In the upcoming show, a poor, rural family will be tranplanted to a Beverly Hills mansion.
