Product Description

The corn is as high as a donkey's eye in HEE HAW's Laffs. This breathless barrage of jokes, one-liners and zany bits will have you tripled over with laughter as the Kornfield Kounty comedy clan flexes its funny muscles. Want to see Roy Clark in drag? Just ask Royella, the local advice columnist. Silver-tongued rascal supreme Archie Campbell cuts up more than he cuts hair at the barbershop. Campbell and Gordie Tapp harmonize on the raspberry-flavored HEE HAW favorite "Pfft! You Were Gone." Then there are the Culhanes - Tapp, Grandpa Jones, Lulu Roman and Junior Samples - the worst soap opera stars ever to stare down a cue card. You'll howl when Junior tackles Shakespeare and tries to pronounce "trigonometry." For an entertaining insider's look at HEE HAW, check out the exclusive 2006 interviews with cast members Roy Clark, Lulu Roman, Roni Stoneman, the Hagers and George "Goober" Lindsey, along with writer George Yanok and Charlie McCoy, a harmonica legend, who became the show's musical director in 1978. They'll give you the skinny (especially Lulu) on what made HEE HAW tick. Bet you didn't know that Junior owned a still when he was eleven. Or that Roni flunked her first audition. Or why Minnie Pearl wept uncontrollably on the set one day (don't worry, we won't spoil the surprise). Funny, informative, touching - these colorful anecdotes reveal how HEE HAW operated as one big mostly happy family, and why it is beloved to this day.
