I loved watching that show 😊. I grew up in the 60's, born 1960 and I would watch the Beverly Hillbillies every chance I got, wouldn't miss it for nothing in the world, programs today just aren't what they use to be back when I was a young lady. Anyways, I miss watching the show. It's one of my favorite programs.

I only guessed correctly based on my assumption that she looks like an "Irene".

Wonderful actress. From what I've read, during the run of "Pippin" on Broadway (as Berthe), she had some sort of attack, flew to CA for treatment, and died 6 weeks later.

Mourning Dove Thomas, same here I grew up in the 60s and in the 70s and Beverly hillbillies,Gilligans island, bewitched and a bunch of other TV shows that were good. These things today are mostly trash. All they want to do is shoot somebody or lay with somebody or push some drugs off on somebody I don’t watch very many of them..

I couldn’t exactly figure OUT the actual identity I guessed but after the fact I think she was an iconic comedienne! Finally she was an established actress but got a whole new audience with Beverly Hillbillies n she made her mark

VividPotion6704, She was NOT a Clampett, She was Jed's mother-in-law...

And, she could make a heck of a good opossum stew...

stashio2020, Thanks for giving me the giggles!
Birdiemom
well it certainly wasn't any of the other 3, they're all about 3 generations too young to have been in a 60s sitcom!

FearsomeFlyer2654, 1971 was when her show ended not when she died that was April of 73 but she didn't make it to October so she was only 70 not 71
