The Beverly Hillbillies - A Man for Elly - Season 2 Episode 15

Granny spends all her time watching her television idol, Western actor Quirt Manly (Henry Gibson). This leaves Jethro to have to do the cooking, which isn't working out so well. Granny believes Quirt would be just the man for Elly. Miss Jane tells Jed that Quirt lives in Beverly Hills. Mr. Drysdale arranges for Quirt to stop by the Clampett mansion. Granny is very disappointed when Quirt is revealed to be much less of a man than expected. Elly shows Quirt some of her pets and he says how much he likes animals, especially small ones. He tells Elly about the men who are his stunt and voice doubles on his TV show. His real name is Henry and he's only on the show because his father is the sponsor. Henry recites a poem about raccoons. Henry lets Jethro drive his car around. Jethro winds up picking up a lot of women because they think he's Quirt. Jed keeps trying to make Henry look like a man's man to Granny, but things just don't work out the way he planned.
