30 Comments on Elly May Goes To the Great Cement Pond in the Sky

1. Damn…just…damn.

2. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the Mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

   Thanks for the giggles Donna.

   My favorite episode that still makes me laugh is Elly May sitting up in a tree, using a bra for a double barrel sling shot.

3. Some of the best anal I ever had. Wait! not sure I phrased that right….

4. One of the favorites of me early post-pubescent years. RIP

5. Awww, she was my role model – you know; the critter lover.

   Rest in peace, Donna.

6. Bring her back, take Harry Reid instead!

   What’s that?
   Oh right, his destination is further South.

7. very sad day.

8. RIP
   Seemed to be a truly decent person.

   This is an even sadder story than the one where Harry’s expected to recover.

9. Gonna miss her and her critters. Still one of my favorite sit-coms.
   Rest in Peace, Miss Donna. Tell Uncle Jed “howdy”, for me.

10. She put Proverbs 3:5-6 on her picture??
    Cool! She was so sweet I figured she probably was a Christian.
    Anyone know how old she was??

11. 81

12. Smart, funny, talented actress and great lady who loved the Lord. She was stellar as Elly Mae Clampett. I grew up watching Beverly Hillbillies and watch it on MeTV – still hilarious.

13. One of the most iconic TZ episodes.

14. What boy didn’t have a crush on her back in the Beverly Hillbilly days?

15. Elly May or Mary Ann?

16. Pelopidas

    I was curious about your name since my great grandfather had the same as his middle name.

17. Sweet, sweet lady.
    RIP, hopefully with your critters.

18. I had no idea that was her in that Twilight Zone. There were ao many great episodes.

    And the Beverly Hillbillies, for all of the stereotyping and derisive connotations against the show, was a great example of how the moral clarity of simple, honest people holds its own against the sneering condescension of their self-proclaimed betters.

    Somehow, it could still be made relevant today.

    Mary Ann is a braindead commie now in case no one has checked her Twitter feed.

19. Ginger, Billy. Ginger

20. I’ll miss her.

21. I have an autographed 8×10 of her from 1969 that I’ll treasure. She was a good person. RIP

22. I’ve been on a bit of a Hillbillies kick lately since I found out that all of the full episodes are on You Tube. I won’t say which one, but one of the “early” episodes has a scene that (accidentally or not) subtly shows Elly May’s “Toe of the critter that the Sheik left behind”

23. The Twilight Zone episode shows a GOP run society. BTW E.T, The Extra-Terrestrial paid homage to this episode.

24. Says the guy doing everything he can to force everyone else be like him…

    Libs…

    Backwards.

    Always delusionally backwards.

25. Succumbed to cancer. The prick Dick Smith should be pleased.

26. Proverbs 3:
    5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart; and lean not to your own understanding. 6 In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths.

    Rest in Peace dear lady.

27. And another real classy lady is gone…..

28. I grew up watching the Beverly Hillbillies and loved all the characters. Always thought Ms. Douglas was so very pretty. Then, long after the series ended, I saw her on a talk show where she talked about her faith, and it made me into a bigger fan. Heaven got a new angel.

29. I grew up with these people too… my favorites were Pearl and Jethrine.

30. @ Racist
    Great episode. Thanks.
