More hate against "Good Ole Boys"

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Up from CBS comes a-bubblin' crude, with the network developing a reality series based on the old "The Beverly Hillbillies" sitcom.



CBS is planning to cast a weekly half-hour series that will chronicle the lives of a rural, lower-middle class family as they move into a luxurious Beverly Hills mansion.

The project is tentatively titled, "Real Beverly Hillbillies," the trade newspaper Variety reported Wednesday.

A maid and personal assistants will be among the indulgences afforded to the family during a one-year stay in California. Participants also will be able to earn money each week as part of the contest.

"The intent is to be respective but at the same time enjoy the humor that comes from the fish-out-of-water scenario of the show," said Ghen Maynard, a CBS alternative programming executive. "We want a family who has a sense of humor about themselves."

Maynard said the show will have a loose structure, similar to MTV's "The Osbournes," about rocker Ozzy Osbourne and his family, or E! Entertainment Television's "The Anna Nicole Show," about the former Playboy model.

"The Beverly Hillbillies" show was about a poor mountaineer named Jed who strikes oil while "shootin' at some food, and up through the ground came a-bubblin' crude," according to the classic theme song.

It aired from 1962 until 1971, producing 274 episodes. At one time it was television's No. 1 program, attracting up to 60 million viewers weekly. Buddy Ebsen starred as Jed Clampett, while Irene Ryan played shotgun-toting Granny.

The problem I have with this show is that the contestants they will prey on (yes, prey on) will probably be predominantly from the South, White, and poor.

I've seen esteemed liberal rags such as The New York Times and Newsweek refer to this population as "rednecks" and "crackers" without any public outrage.

MANY of our nation's wars were fought by brave men from this demographic (poor, white, and southern), our argriculture system was/is planted and harvested by this segment, and our factory workers are a large part of this segment.


Could you imagine the heat and political outrage if CBS took some poor blacks from the ghettos of Detriot, moved them to Aspen or Malibu and named the show something along the lines of "*******"?

*How many times you have to be warned asswhipe?

I heard about that today. Basically, they will look to find the goofiest family they can find and stick them in situations where they will be expected to make fools out of themselves. I won't watch it, but then again I don't watch much TV as it is.

Knowing that this is what they are coming up with for new programs makes me glad that I don't watch much TV anymore.

I'd rather see CBS take an upper-middle class family and stick them in the slums of a city for 6 months. Upon completion they earn their reward and a thing or two about life outside of Macy's.

i think this show is a bit outrageous. has'nt the south been the blount of too many ethnic jokes as is? i live here in the deep south(i'm 30 minutes from the gulf of mexico in alabama) and yes we have our fair share of hicks but for the most part people here are just as hard working and educated as those who live in the north. my advice, put a poor white/black/or whatever family in a mansion with one of the same from the north and see what happends. better yet just leave it all alone and get a life. leave people alone.

shit, this happens every Sunday, just watch a football game. Take some poor black out of the ghetto, teach him to play footballl, pay him millions and watch him piss it down his leg. I would like to see a study of how much cash most sports icons have after retiring or getting cut.

barry sanders was actually pretty good with his money - although he gave shitloads of it to his local church... which I suppose in the long run helped the community since it was a small town.

 

[cockdezl]

same thing if we started a naawp .

There is. It was run by David Duke years ago, don't know if he still controls it or even if it is still around.
