Enough with the Phil Silvers stuff.

OK. Enough with all the Phil Silvers as con-man bilking the Clampetts and Drysdale trying to stop him. This story arc started in the last episodes of last season and for some unfathomable reason, is continuing well into this one. Silvers was annoying as can be in the first place and his inclusion in so many epsiodes of B. H. is just too much. Please stop! (Yes, I know I'm yelling at people who are long dead, but I'm still here having to watch this bilge).

Now, for the usual exercise in fulfilling the 600 character requirement, Now, for the usual exercise in fulfilling the 600 character requirement.

Quotes
Elly May Clampett: [Elly brings in a box of kittens] Ain't they cute?
Jed Clampett: 'Course they is cute, Elly, but if there's one thing we don't need right now, it's more critters
Daisy Moses: Your Pa's right, Elly. Take 'em back.
Elly May Clampett: But Granny, I already named 'em.
Daisy Moses: Don't matter. Take 'em back.
Elly May Clampett: They is all named after presidents. This one here is George Washington. This one here is Abraham Lincoln. And this one is Theodore Roosevelt.
Daisy Moses: Take 'em back, Elly.
Elly May Clampett: This one is Jefferson Davis.
Daisy Moses: He can stay.

Crazy credits
Once again, the usual "Come and listen to my story..." part of the opening credits is replaced by an announcement that Phil Silvers is tonight's special guest star. It then goes to the main title and the rest of the credits.
