    [show]    Was one of the victims of the infamous rural purge in 1971, along with The Beverly Hillbillies, Mayberry R.F.D., "Hee Haw" (1969) and The Ed Sullivan Show (aka "The Ed Sullivan Show"). At the time, close analysis of demographics came into vogue, and these shows were perceived by CBS executive Fred Silverman to appeal only to those who lived in rural areas and older people, so he decided to cancel them, even though they were all still hugely popular. The oft-told joke that has passed into legend is that "CBS canceled every show with a tree in it".
