I remember watching this show all through my childhood, my teens, and, into my twenties...and, loving it.
This was one of those 'ultimate' variety shows that had something for everyone - good music; funny skits; pretty women; a talented cast; top guest stars; and, a friendly atmosphere.
Although I haven't seen "Hee-Haw" in ages, I remember a lot that I saw and heard here as if it were only yesterday...such as Roy Clark's banjo playing along with Buck Owens and the entire cast having those wonderful sing-a-longs; the song "Where Oh Where Are You Tonight;" Grandpa Jones; Minnie Pearl; 'Junior;' Lulu; George Lindsey ("The Andy Griffith Show"); and, those country-lovelies Lisa Todd, Misty Rowe, Cathy Baker, Marianne Gordon, and, Barbi Benton.
I'll never understand why iconic shows like this aren't being shown on television nowadays so that younger generations can see that music and humor, entertainment in general, can be good without vulgarity and raunchy behavior. INSP, TV Land, and/or CMT should air this.
This is one of those family-friendly shows that everyone can enjoy, which is probably why it lasted twenty-eight years. I give it a solid 10...easily! :)
