Top Rewind examines the tense relationship between Nancy Kulp and Buddy Ebsen, co-stars on "The Beverly Hillbillies," where their political and personal differences created friction despite their on-screen chemistry. While Kulp leaned liberal and later ran as a Democratic candidate for Congress, Ebsen, a staunch conservative, actively opposed her campaign, recording an ad for her opponent that Kulp saw as a betrayal. The video traces their distinct journeys before and after the show, including Kulp's transition to teaching and local theater and Ebsen's continued acting success and personal hobbies like sailing and writing. Despite their disagreements, their portrayal of Miss Jane Hathaway and Jed Clampett remains a beloved part of television history.
