The Beverly Hillbillies (1962–1971) was a wildly popular sitcom that followed the Clampett family, a group of country folks who strike oil and move to ritzy Beverly Hills, bringing their down-home charm to high society.
Joi Lansing made a memorable impression as Gladys Flatt, the glamorous and stylish wife of Lester Flatt, one half of the musical duo Flatt and Scruggs, who occasionally appeared on the show.
With her dazzling beauty, big blonde hair, and Hollywood sparkle, Lansing added a touch of showbiz glitz to the rural chaos. Though her appearances were brief, her presence brought an extra layer of fun and flair, perfectly fitting the show’s mix of hillbilly humor and Beverly Hills extravagance.
