The Peppermint Trolley Company Movies
Still determined to become the Robin Hood of Beverly Hills, Jethro has recruited a whole slew of new "Merrie Men," actually a band of hippies who are attracted to the Clampett millions. When Jethro renews his vow to rob from the rich and give to the poor, the hippies suggest that banker Drysdale would be an ideal "rich" candidate. Alan Reed Jr., who portrayed beatnik artist Sheldon Epps during the series' second season, is here cast as hippie leader Buddy, while veteran movie heavy Victor French is seen as Tony. The conclusion of a two-episode story arc, "Robin Hood and the Sheriff" first aired on October 4, 1967. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
