Now, you need to remember that back in 1969 the variety shows were King and when 'Hee Haw' arrived it brought variety to country music. The cast of 'Hee Haw' were very talented and the comedy part of the show was the best. The singing was astronomical and the stars came on every week.

This is a variety show that was the best of the best. For over two decades 'Hee Haw' entertained us and made us feel very good about everything. Enjoy.
