Buddy Ebsen: Jed Clampett

Quotes 

• Jed Clampett : Make us proud of you, Jethro.

  Jethro Bodine : Oh, by the way, that ain't my name no more. Us movie stars gotta use tough-soundin' names like Biff Steel, Crunch Hardtack, Race Burley.

  Daisy Moses : You got one?

  Jethro Bodine : I thought myself up a dandy, Beef Jerky.

• Jed Clampett : If he eats her vittles, we'll never get him to the church.

  Daisy Moses : Oh he'll get to the church alright, but six of his friends will be totin' him in a box.

  Jed Clampett : Now Granny, it ain't that bad.

  Daisy Moses : It's so bad, Jethro won't eat it. You cain't get worse than that.

• Jethro Bodine : Wait'll you see her. She's purty as a mess of fried catfish.

  Jed Clampett : Granny, the boy's in love. Ain't no girl ever come up to fried catfish before.

• Jed Clampett : [to Jethro, returning from his stunt double work]  You look like you been sortin' bobcats in a burnin' hayloft.
