Irene Ryan Not Being Granny Clampett (Sort of)!

In a rare occurance, YouTube has failed me. I cannot find any clips of Irene Ryan not being Granny Clampett, although I know they exist.

If you were to see her as a contestant on Password, totally dolled up in her latest 1960s old-lady wear, you would have to stop yourself from fainting dead away.

There was another clip (now mysteriously gone) of Irene being interviewed soon after the cancellation of The Beverly Hillbillies. She was on her apartment balcony, watering her plants, and talking about current topics like Viet Nam and the kids today. You would have fallen over.

The closest disorienting clip I could find was this one, where she talks to Donald O' Connor about the good old days of yester-year. She's decked out like Granny, but her voice and body language is decidedly chill.

Try to be as disoriented as you can, and I'll keep looking.
