Description by OLDIES.com:

Premiering in 1962, "The Beverly Hillbillies" sprang onto the American landscape like bubblin' crude, turning into television's number one show faster than any sitcom in history. A supreme television classic, this CBS-TV folklore favorite ran for nine years and still holds the record for TV's highest-rated half hour.

This astounding Ultimate Collection, with rare footage culled from creator Paul Henning's private archive, features 26 newly-restored and unedited episodes with the complete and never-before-broadcast pilot ("The Hillbillies Of Beverly Hills"), rare cast commercials, interviews and a heapin' helpin' of behind the scenes footage.

Product Description:

Set a spell and enjoy the country charm and humorous appeal of the Clampett clan, stars of the highest-rated half-hour show in TV history. Created by TV maverick Paul Henning (PETTICOAT JUNCTION, THE GEORGE BURNS & GRACIE ALLEN SHOW) and premiering in 1962, the show followed the family from Ozark poverty to Beverly Hills, California, after they struck "black gold" on their swampland farm. These 26 episodes have been beautifully restored and include the unaired pilot "The Hillbillies of Beverly Hills." With their 36-room mansion overrun with Elly May's animals and Granny's illegal moonshine, while girl-crazy Cousin Jethro and Uncle Jed try to keep an eye on them all, this family ain't like the neighbors, but they sure are a lot of fun!
