In 1 of my favorite episodes Jed asked Jethro, who is using a cake bowl to eat his cornflakes; "How many bowls of flakes have you had, boy?" Jethro, "Just one, Uncle Jed." Jed, "One!!??" Jethro, "Yeah one bowl, filled it 5 times but it's the same bowl".
I must have been just a baby when all this originally aired. I remembered the actors did commercials for the Kellogg's company; but until now I've never seen this one. I think I would have loved to see a few episodes with Granny shopping at the supermarket.😊😊😊😊
Occasionally, on their sponsored programs, Kellogg's would present "extended" commercials about "food values" and/or "the importance of the food industry" (most often, Dennis James would discuss the facts involved). This was one of them, from late 1963.
Had an ex from Battle Creek and she said that their town and surrounding towns pretty much survived off the ConAgra food aka Kellogg's one way or the other.
Wow at 2:33, that's pretty amazing looking at those stats from back then and comparing it to today, according to the average spending compared to hourly salaries of today it would take around 14 hours of work to buy a month's groceries...pretty fascinating how much it has changed!
The stats are at 3:21 14 hours for “the average family”? No, that’s probably per person and “the average family” she refers to was then 4 or more. 14 times 4, makes 56 hours for a month for the family whereas it was 37 then - that sounds more correct. Since wages have gone down in relation to food prices that would make sense. This reflects as much about mean wages and family size, as it does the price of food.
These integrated commercials seem strange now but back then they seemed as normal as prescription drug commercials are now .The actors in those days did the sponsor commercials either in their characters as this example or as their real selves typically on the set after a shot scene . I remember Andy Griffith pitching Sanka coffee in the court house . And Don Knotts pitching Gaines dog food by a backyard doghouse , Not to mention Garry Moore smoking Winston after Winston all during I'VE GOT A SECRET in the 1950s with the Winston logo displayed on both his moderators desk and the panels desk all during the show . There was little doubt who was paying the bills on this show ! I think by 1966 TV networks, particularly ABC , the poor network , had gone away from primary sponsors or even alternating sponsors to participating sponsors who have no direct connection to a certain program . That's the system we have place today .
At 1:11, Jerry Scoggins said "gg" stood for "Double Good", I didn't know they used that way back then. I remember it in recent years, though. This was made in 1963, as per the date given at the end. At one point (maybe the first season), Donna Douglas (Elly May) said "This has been a Filmways presentation". A male voice said it other times.
Bill Baldwin , the old Bob Cummings - Paul Hennings announcer did the Filmways production credit on the first 3 years of the program . After it switched to color in 1966 Donna Douglas did the credit. Similar Larry Keating always did Mr. Ed credit until death , then continued with Alan Lane , Mr Ed himself in his straight voice. I guess Filmways considered this as their trademark for their actors to do their shows production credit as Linda Kaye eventually did Petticoat Junction and Eva Gabor did Green Acres. Even Ted Cassidy did a few on the Adams Family

That used to be the industry standard in the 40s, 50s, and 60s but FCC rules now prevent most integrated ads. There has be a separation between the show and the ad that is more clearly understood by the viewer, especially in children's programming. A good example is that no Pebbles cereal ads can be run during a block of Flintstones cartoons.
This was cute, but they shouldn't have had Granny be the one to go ga-ga over the supermarket (should have been Jethro who LOVES to eat!) because she always bemoaned that the supermarkets never carried any of the foods she wanted (hog jowels, possum belly, etc), and was very perplexed by frozen food. The stores also didn't carry anything she liked to put in her potions or "medicines.' But I still like this because I love the Hillbillies. Y'all come back now, ya hear?
This is the kind of integrated commercials they'd never have allowed on British television, where there always had to be a clear division between programme content and advertising. Can't deny it's entertaining, but when you consider the Clampetts were also sponsored by a tobacco company, well...
Very enjoyable commercial, but was there a problem trying to get people to buy and eat food in the 60s? I was alive, and we ate every day--never got tired of eating!
I think it had to do with Kelloggs being the principal show sponsor and wanting to push a pro-grocery message. Lots of families still grew food in gardens back in the 50s and 60s. In fact, there's a whole episode in early season 2 about convincing Granny not to plough the front yard area by showing her a supermarket. It's a bit out of character and a sour note to have a rural-minded show disparaging rural values on the sponsor's say-so.
I remember those little boxes of cereal too. I miss them. But they only have the cups that you just open and pour the milk into. BTW, what was OK cereal?
@@skeeternash My mother used to buy those when we went on vacation. Usually a pack of one or two that wasn't like so you wanted to get to the good ones first! That and the individual envelopes of Nestle quick. I believe you can still buy them and I swear they taste better than the container powder!

That is true on 1960. Food was plenty. We ate better than anyone. We still do. Maybe costier. But we do. Thank God for USA there Is no land better than this..
I have always wondered ever since I was old enough to look and understand, how did they get there with no headlights on that old car they drove? It's pretty clear to see that the thing had wood on the headlights part. I liked that vittles commercial. And Yes, I remember Kelloggs Corn Flakes sponsoring The Beverly Hillbillies show as a child. But in the early 1970s though. I have no memory of this commercial, I'm 52 years old. We've bought and ate that delicious cereal forever. As for their cigarette ads, I have no memories of those at all. I don't remember cigarette commercials either. I like bananas the best on my Corn Flakes.
@@toddmiller5656 if the tv show was the first we saw BH, how could there have been a car B 4 the truck? Not episode one, but they loaded granny and chair, a rockin on high in Season one..
The integrated commercials while they are fun to see required extra work for cast and crew. They had to be written, rehearsed and filmed in addition to show itself . The folks now a days do not have to be concerned about this extra load . Think about that while you see Harriet Nelson recite the virtues of a Kodak Brownie camera from 1957 . I am not used to the TV characters addressing you strait into the fourth wall .
When the 1958 Plymouths were introduced on Betty White's short-lived sitcom "Date with the Angels," the integrated commercial started out in Gus and Vicki Angel's kitchen with Betty saying, "You'll forgive me for stepping out of character, but..." and introduced the extended commercial--song, dance and all--that launched "The Star of the Forward Look." You may be able to find it on UA-cam
Back when.?! Now they put the commercials in the TV shows. From showing cars parallel parking in Bones, to product placement like Dunkin' donuts in American Idol.
In the 1950’s ad’s were in control of wether shows stayed on the air or not. TV was a lot more different back then. That’s why if you watch i love lucy it would always say “tonight’s episode is made possible by *insert product here*”
This is a true story and back when everything was made in America the United States life was great each and every person needs to register to vote and do their part to help make America great let's drain the swamp the man we voted in known to us as President Trump is a good man let's all stand behind him and quit all this drama and lies God bless each and every American
@ Wrong. The drama is all the liberal media's propaganda. You would think after 4 years of nothing but lies from the "news" you would realize this. This November we have the chance to kill the Democrat Party. Let's not waste it.

Thank You So Much

Great info. Thxs
You're welcome.
Still my favorite comedy show especially the black and white episodes
I do remember this show and the Kelloggs commercials well. And a time when I thought food would always be very affordable.
"THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES" has been presented by...
KELLOGG'S CORN FLAKES...
...from Kellogg's of Battle Creek!
TV really was invented to push cigs and cereal.
Now we need a song to get people to stop eating :)
Indeed, we do. ☺️
😆
If u ever heard me sing you certainly wouldn’t want to eat…..
I love this PSA. It's still a treat to go to the grocery store! Today prices are higher than when it was in 1963-1964
This isn't a PSA it's a commercial for Kellogg's Food. Eating is easier and much more fun!
I would like to research the cost per hour worked yearly since then
Had an ex from Battle Creek and she said that their town and surrounding towns pretty much survived off the ConAgra food aka Kellogg's one way or the other.
This had to be a public service message at schools around the country because I never recall seeing this on television
This was probably shown only one time after the main episode(when Miss Hathaway showed Granny she didn't need to plow up the front lawn).
Nope - show sponsors used tv shows as a vehicle to harp their products...not the other way around.
One afternoon nap, I dreamed of this.
Great I bet that won't happen with one of them new sitcoms
Wow at 2:33, that's pretty amazing looking at those stats from back then and comparing it to today, according to the average spending compared to hourly salaries of today it would take around 14 hours of work to buy a month's groceries...pretty fascinating how much it has changed!

Or family size just went way down.
The stats are at 3:21
14 hours for “the average family”? No, that’s probably per person and “the average family” she refers to was then 4 or more. 14 times 4, makes 56 hours for a month for the family whereas it was 37 then - that sounds more correct.

Jethro was funny eating Kings cornflakes in the mixing bowl
With a half gallon of milk .
Back when sponsors ruled the networks
They controlled the tv shows , essentially .Thank God that stopped by the 1970s
this is how commercials should be shown , with the performers of the show doing them

The FCC blows!
Of course, now we have "product placement" in so many tv shows.
And now, plain old Corn Flakes ( and Wheaties) is More Expensive than all the 'fancy' cereals!!
My father is dead but Kelloggs corn flakes was his favorite.
That lengthy “Vittles Industry” salute was kind of odd, particularly to be inserted into a prime time national TV series.

nope She's the one that had to do all the cooking.
Exactly. Granny is way out of character with her disdain for "City People Food" and "Store Bought" goods.
It was the 60s if a female was in the home it was her duty to shop for the food
Hours of labor really is the best way to gauge expense
