Legend has it that Beverly Hillbillies was cancelled in the "rural purge" by CBS president Fred Silverman. But, truthfully, after half a season of that pathetically unfunny Shorty (who will actually return yet again later in this season), another on-and-on series of episodes of Phil Silvers' bit, and now an endless story arc about a "frogman", it's clear that the writers had run out of ideas and the show had run it's course. I would say the show maybe ran a season or two too many.
All good things must come to an end, and this one stuck around a little too long.
And now to fulfill the silly 600 character requirement.
