In reply to the discussion: The Manhattan Hillbillies [View all]ProudLib72
(17,984 posts)21. I just remember how Elly May had three things going for her
First, she was good looking. Second, she was no nonsense (remember how she was always trying to steer Jethro away from his stupid schemes?). Finally, she had a lot of well trained animals. I really couldn't decide which of the three was the most important. All I knew at that young age was that I wanted the show to focus more on her.
