I was never a Hee-Haw fan in my youth either.
Strangely though I find a comforting nostalgia now watching the reruns on RFD-TV.
“You’ll never hear one of us repeating gossip, so you’d better be sure and listen close the first time!” LOL!
Lol! Add me to that list. When I was growing up during the late 70's and early 80's my parents would watch Hee-Haw every Saturday evening like clockwork, as a Generation X kid who was into Atari and Rock music, Hee-Haw was embarrassingly backward and hokey to my "modern" sensibilities. However, since back in those days there was only one TV in the house, I complained but watched anyway.
Now when I see a Hee-Haw rerun, I often stop and watch it, there is something comforting about about the simplicity and wholesomeness of it that I miss.
Gloom, despair and agony on me
Deep dark depression, excessive misery
If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all
Gloom despair and agony on me
