I now I’m 64 years old but when I was younger 5 or 6yo, Irene came to visit a relative of hers at a house on Clark Lake in Michigan. My grandmother at the time used to be the cleaning lady for the woman who owned that house. The woman who owned the house was a relative to “granny” and Irene was planning on a visit so the woman offered to allow my grandma to bring all of her 12 grand children to Clarklake to visit and meet granny. we all piled into my grandmothers car drove to the lake. We walked in and there was this beautifully dressed very elegant, beautiful hair, beautiful make up beautiful jewelry, beautiful dress, woman sitting in the living room, and the woman who owned the house, said this is granny boys and girls. I walked right up to her, and I said, you’re not granny you’re too pretty!! Well, Irene laughed so hard, and she started speaking in Granny’s voice which tickled me so much. I ran into her arms and gave her a hug. I will never forget that day. It was so sweet.….
The Beverly Hillbillies wouldn't have been as wonderful as it was, without Granny. Still watch the reruns til this day. She was hilarious. Loved Irene. May she rest in peace. ❤
Without Granny the show would have been canceled the first season and no one would remember it today.
Watching the Beverly Hillbillies cracks me up all the especially the episode " Jed buys Stock". You have got to watch that one. I wouldn't do it any justice if I described but for those who have a box set of this show you have got to watch it again!
I grew up watching the Beverly Hill Billies during the 60's on our black and white TV. RIP Grannie you were awesome in that role!
Irene was made for the role
❤️
I still watch Beverly Hillbillies now.
It was many years ago that i saw this awesome hilarious series on our black and white tv. Ive just found the series and started watching it lovely memories😂❤❤ 1:16 😂😂 😂❤
i grew up watching in the mid 2000s. i was obsessed with the show and Granny was my favorite... this literally breaks my heart. I know if I heard about this when I was going through "the phase' in grade school I would have mourned like I lost a loved one....
She sure knocked that character out of the ball park i can't imagine anyone playing that part even half as good as She did.
For some strange reason, I think that when she gets older, Jennifer Anniston could be Granny Clampett.
For sure, and she was, in real life, nothing like granny Clampett.
She was tiny and lovely. Couldn't have imagined a better Granny!
She was brilliant as Granny. One of the best comedic characters in the history of TV.
The chemistry between the main cast members,was what made the show a cultural success .The actors,knew how to act ,and say their lines good enough to make it believable.Ebsen and Culp didn't like each other - but they kept their dislike apart from the show.They did reconcile on her death bed.
Irene crushed the Granny role, like Don Knotts crushed Barney Fife.
I loved Barney Fife
@@anitagordon7688 - Me too. Barney and Granny are both iconic characters in TV history, in my opinion.
My FAVORITE actress for older parts was SHIRLEY BOOTH who played on the sitcom HAZEL ❣still love irene playing granny though ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Barney Fife. was a ggreat actor, Mayberry wouldn't be the show without Don Knotts. A real hero to all.
Truth
Thanks for making this tribute. I only knew her from the Beverly Hillbillies when I was a youngster in the sixties, so to see her as a young lady was amazing. She was beautiful! Good on you, for doing this, I'm sure Irene will be smiling down on you. X
Irene was an incredibly hilarious lady and played Granny so well. I don't think anyone could of played her part any better. She was excellent 😍💖🙏
Why is it always a sad ending? Most of these people had wonderful lives...
Because it gets more views.
It's kinda like using a scantily clad girl in a thumbnail even though she is not in the actual video.
It's just a ploy that pathetic people use to get views on their channels.
I agree !
Because it's the tag line for the series. :)
@@strangenrare8663 well....it shouldn't be since there is never a sad ending. I enjoy his vids but hate bullshit. I don't need to be baited in.....
Probably because a lot of people are sorry sob's who find joy in hearing of other peoples misfortune.
She was so pretty when young and the cutest and funniest old lady ever
Sure she was pretty had on 2 kilos of makeup under the brightest of lights they age in dog years, you know who I am talking about.....lol

Se la vie!
I found nothing sadd about her life. Smh click bait.
@@athorpe630 It sure is...
I wouldn't call her having a "sad" ending. She worked until she died, which was at 70, and was in relatively good health until the end.
@ "Puff" the magic dragon, killed many & many suffer/linger because of this habit ...
How did it shorten her life. She was 83. She died from a brain tumor It’s very aggressive how do I know key word she had a non operative tumor. My sister passed away with the same thing. She never smoke. Ted Kennedy also passed away same thing There is still no cure
@ my husband grandma smoke till she was 92. Heavy she smoke no filter camels I agree smoking cause a lot of deaths but they keep blaming smoking on all the stars. It’s not true. I am an x smoker. Three years. Sad to say I waited to long.
@ I have COPD. One good thing that came out of it Three family members quit also.
@@janielang9965 Sorry for your COPD diagnosis, hopefully your not oxygen dependent. Glad to hear three of your family quit also. I wish you well !!
She was outstanding as "Granny" in THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES. RIP Irene Ryan..you are loved and missed 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
She's the bestest of all the grannies, in our world. We just loved her 4ever❤️
Yep
Hey "Remembering Famous People", we all die, and don't get to choose how. It's not always a "sad" ending.
Didnt seem sad at all, one heck'ova life. And a very funny lady.

She lived a long, celebrated life. She went out swinging.
Wow! She was only ten years older than me when she died and just in her 60's when she played Granny? That is crazy, she looked at least 85.
Her make up was off and leave her hair flat. That’s why she looked so older nearing 60. And yes smoking can decreases your age.
She did a great job on the Beverly Hillbilly’s
I will stop and watch the Beverly Hillbillies any chance I get. No matter how many times she was over ruled by Jed, Granny ran the roost.
Doesn’t sound sad. Sounds like a full life.
Right! I was waiting for the tragic part.
I know.. why have the sad part in these videos?
Click bait?
Isn't every "ending"-as in death- sad? I find the name of the channel a little clickbait-y, but I do love the videos, so thanks for the info you always provide! Keep up the good work & just ignore my teasing about the name. No matter what you call it, it's good stuff! 😉
I concur! Who could make a confederate loving granny funny to all? To this inner city dude, only Irene!!!
My Grannie told me back then, she's really a pretty lady, it's all tv makeup. But she'll always be Grannie to my young eyes.
It is Interesting that Buddy Ebsen outlived his on-screen mother in law by 3 decades. R.I.P to both.
@David Singleton. So you deleted your question, however she was born in 1902 and he in 1908, that's all.
!!!!!!
She was perfect in that role. I still watch and laugh over 50 years later.
She was the reason for watching.
Yes
@@royjackson8523 indeed. I have one of my favorite scenes saved to my phone. Her timing and delivery of lines were aces.

I'd rather have Granny than that pissant Fauci.
@@GizmoRob176 yes me too .granny was always one hundred and one hundred fifty proof !😁
Not watching the news would cure it too...
Ms Daisy May Granny on The Beverly Hillbillies - Ms Irene Ryan I still enjoy The Beverly Hillbillies tv show today .R.I.P.
Regret to inform you, but she is dead and cannot possibly hear you. An adult will be able to explain this to you.
Ive always had a personal place in my heart for her character as granny.
Both of my parents were not very well off growing up in Buckhannon West Virginia.My dads mom,had a hard job,being widowed when my dad was only 7,and she had a home and 5 kids to care for alone.My moms mom was a very devoted christian,and yet,would be rather scornful yet,proper toward unruly children...like myself.I loved them both dearly.When I speak to friends about my family in West Virginia,I can only make a comparison of them with Jed and Granny.
My uncle Arbrey was common law husband to my aunt Edith,who developed polio as a late teen,and he stayed with her and grandma to help best as he could.He was typical Jed.Easy going and kind hearted.
I could go on and on...but tho we came from poor West Virginia hillbilly stock,Im very proud of them,for they were the root of family loyalty in my ancestry.And watching The Beverly Hillbillys is like listening to my grandma and my uncle.Im almost 70 now,and Irene blessed me with lingering,fond memories of my late family members of West by God Virginia.
I loved her in Beverly Hillbillies, too funny.
Very. Very. Thanks. Bye
I think she was just wonderful I loved her as Granny
She was gorgeous as a young woman. Very cute as Granny and excellent actress.
She was gorgeous in that picture at 0:05 because it was a different actress (Irene Hervey)
She seemed to be such a sweet lady. She also portrayed granny on The Beverly Hillbilly’s very well....what an talented actress.
""SHE was Gorgeous""I loved granny
She was stunning when she was young. I loved her because she looked like the white version of my granny and she was so cute and funny❤
😂😉❤️🥰
Very poor read by the voice-over guy. Hope he wasn’t a paid announcer.
It’s pronounced Bob FossEE, not “Bob Foss”. He was one of the most well known choreographers and directors on Broadway!
Yeah you would think he would know how to pronounce his name!!
It’s a computer voice isn’t it?
This commentator’s reading skills are sub-par! Mispronouncing names in a medium such as this, is simple non preparation! SAD!
It’s also pronounced Bertha not “Birth”. He also once mispronounces Irene’s name as Ir-rene Really awful reading here.
@@whitneyryangarrity5265 lots of channel operators don’t take a few seconds to check pronunciation. Makes me wonder if they check any of their facts.
Back in the early days of her career, she was a beautiful woman....🌹
Until the smokes sucked out her looks and ultimately her life ...
I agree, how is this sad? Everyone dies sooner or later. She lived 70 years. What’s so sad about it?
Same thought here, sounds like she had a full life. Still working almost till the day she died. Click bait title.
@@johntalbert8227 I'm 78 and I don't agree that "70" is a full life! I just want outlast Covid-19!
@@paulhandley1467 I agree, I'm 67 and have a whole lot of years left, but if I croak tomorrow I have to admit, I have had a full life and I'll go out with a smile on my face.

Irene Ryan DID NOT HAVE A SAD ENDING!
She left the #1 highest rated show NATIONWIDE, to take a staring role in a brand new Broadway musical with Ben Vereen! She played her role on Broadway until 2 months before she passed away! One of her final interview, she spoke of how blessed she was to have been given the opportunity to be a lead in a Broadway musical at her age. As, most are shunned at her age!
The ONLY thing sad was that she died! Irene was the entire nations Granny, and 99% of the American population mourned & cried over losing her.
Some fun history....My Dad had an antique furniture and refinishing shop at 9000 W. Pico Blvd. in Beverley Hills Ca. On Saturdays when I was about 11 I would stay with my Dad at his shop for the day. Irene Ryan came in for some antique furniture refinishing. I remember she was very nice and while she was waiting she checked my 4th grade math homework.....Pretty cool.
Funny to see her younger beautiful self morph into ''Granny'', where she was perfect for the character
When I was a kid I remember a classmate saying you know Granny on The Beverly Hillbillies? She died.
Why do you insist on putting "life and sad ending..." they all had a good life and brought great joy to millions and died doing what they loved best.
Yesss! I agree👍🙏they lived a very exciting life & wat they did was amazing & fulfilling not jus for themselves but to millions of Americans!❤❤✊✊🙏🙏
@@gloriagraham9133
*And non-Americans. 😉
SAD attracts many more LOOKY-LOOS than happy!
She was a beautiful lady..that TV makeup..I still watch The Beverly Hillbillies..
The first photo is Irene Hervey. Not Irene Ryan. Ever has her signature, "Irene Hervey", on it. Geez, do some proper research.
yes ,she was an actress too as well as the wife of Allan and mother of Jack Jones
Did anyone else notice the photo of Joan Bennett aka Irene Ryan? If you want a decent following, aim to be more accurate please.
@@bond4836 I noticed that too
We all go out one way or another. I would bet that she didn't have to worry about having the money to pay her bills. Everybody's ending is sad. She is at piece now in the hands of God. Thanks for all the laughs you gave us. Rest in peace.
Well spotted Paul, yeah I noticed that aswell,
My grandmother was just like Granny minus the clodhopper boots.
Clodhoppers...Now that’s a word which is not easy to work into a conversation. I wore “clodhoppers” every day on my parents farm growing up in the 50s. It is good to see that word in print! Cannot think of when I last heard it spoken...decades ago.
@NoName99 NoFace88One very cold winter at age 19 I married. Spent my Christmas present money on a nice pair of furry ankle boots. My new husband could not believe my choice and called me Granny Clampitt. Didn't help that I was a skinny 5ft to his well-built 6ft or wore my bootees proudly with my favourite mini-dress. So when we went out we looked like Tom Jones with Granny Clampitt in tow!!
@NoName99 NoFace88 Not American but as it turned out our son (and only child) married an American. He's in PA and has a son and daughter (who's married with a daughter) living in Virginia. Sadly the marriage did not last many years, he left me for an older woman and now they are both gone. So he never got to see me as a real Granny or Great Granny - Clampitt not so much anymore - nor to know our son's lived nearer to Nashville than we could have foreseen. Ironically as when he rang for our first proper date my radio was playing "In The Ghetto" and he idolised Elvis. I don't think he ever travelled out of England though, much less over to see Graceland. I've been over to see our family at least.
We married on a last Thursday in November - Thanksgiving Day in America - by sheer chance as across the world with no idea so just another unlikely link to America.
So who knows, your feisty sounding Granny Clampitt look-alike wife and I may yet be related - if only by marriage in some generation still to come.
I understand mistakes but it is hard to fathom when the picture is signed Irene Hervey!
I agree! I don't think that photo is her!

My fav eps of hillbillies was when grannie and a "hippie" were looking for "crawdads" and "herbs" to smoke. Of course they had different definitions of the word smoke.
HAHAHA. Remember it well.
Would have loved to know her !! What a character !! I bet she was a real HOOT to spend time with ! I never realized how BEAUTIFUL she was as a young woman !! R.I.P. Granny, we love you and miss you !! May God have prepared a place for you.
Some of those younger photos do not look at all like her, and I wonder if they’re actually someone else??
Her ending doesn’t sound very sad to me at all. Sounds like she lived a pretty full life (hopefully it was satisfying to her and she was happy).
Was just watching Beverly hillbillies today I loved her as granny and yes she was an extremely funny woman!!!😌😌😌

Lol,wow
Why are successful people's lives so sad when they end. These people were famous. They are still well known.I hope my ending won't be sad.
She's Irish..
She looked like a totally different person when she was young.

Didn’t know who that was but knew it wasn’t IR. Thanks
Thank you 🙏
Exactly!
And Irene Harvey!

As far as this channel is concerned, everyone has a sad ending SMH
Yea.....death is a pretty sad ending.....hmmm
It’s so ...final.
I always thought Buddy Ebsen looked a bit too old to portray Granny's son-in-law. Ebsen and Ryan were only 5-1/2 years apart.
I believe in one episode granny referred MD as meaning Mister Doctor.
Thanks for the video. Irene Ryan made 'The Beverly Hillbillies' so enjoyable!
Why are you showing pictures of Joan Bennet?
Brucifer Mephistopheles: At 1:14 in the video is a picture of Vivian Leigh from Gone With The Wind ( Scarlet O’Hara ).
No, it's Irene Hervey
Right! The actress at 1:14 is in fact Joan Bennett. It's a still from the 1947 film "The Woman on the Beach." You can see the title of the film if you rewind the video slowly.
"Irene Hervey" appears at 0:04 in this video. The actress at 1:14 is Joan Bennett, not Irene Hervey.
@ Joan Bennett from "The Woman on the Beach" in 1947, not Vivien Leigh.
I met Irene backstage at the kennedy center in Washington - during her performance of pippin - the same day I met robert Vaughn.Both were gracious and kind.
Showing Ann Sheridan and Irene Hervey is like what🙄
Favorite comedic actress on any tv series from the mid 1960's to present day.
Get your facts straight. Your showing someone else’s picture. And where’s the sad story your referring to?
Exactly. She got old and died of old age. Pretty common.
Yea LJ. They mess up a good story with the headline.
This channel is trying to capitalize on the recent popularity of the Grunge channel "life and sad ending of... " series
Glad to find there isn’t one!
I wouldn’t say that dying from an inoperable glioblastoma is what I’d call “old age”
As the old saying goes...they broke the mold after they made her...they surely did with Irene Ryan’. Granny was one of the greatest characters on television.
Some of the pictures are wrong, they're not all Irene Ryan.
I could never envision granny looking like a beauty model when she was young. But she did.
the pict at 0:16 is that of Irene Hervey. Who was indeed a natural beauty. Granny not so much. many of these photos are phony.
While this is interesting, it’s very wrong. Several of the pics shown are of Irene Hervey. Not Irene Ryan.
Yes! Absolutely right and I think this channel should take down this video and correct this error! Very misleading!
Exactly,,, How wrong to post this so incorrect
Plus, he did no research of his own. Simply read her Wikipedia page verbatim. 😡
I love her, still watch the reruns of the Beverly Hillbillies
❤️
Again, no sad ending here. She had a full life. When somebody dies, it's not always a sad ending. Everybody dies.
she was my third grandma, well maybe second
Bea Benaderet, Blanche on 'Burns & Allen' and eventually Aunt Pearl on Hillbillies, did try out for Granny; but when Irene did her tryout, Bea said to the producers, "*THERE's your Granny!*"
I did not realize she was that beautiful when she was younger. She was hilarious on Beverly Hillbillies as granny
hell to get old isn't it?
@@ronkistner2672 Her "Granny" character required makeup to make her look old! I saw a photo of Irene back then during Hillbillies times, and she was quite attractive.
He has pictures of Irene Hervey and Joan Bennett saying it was Irene Ryan.
The first picture is of Irene Hervey, her signature is on it. I can't believe what you have to say after that error.
She played in a movie a named My dear secretary starring kirk Douglass. She was too funny in the movie. If you get a chance check it out
She was a knock out lady before the Hillbilly's show. She was a bundle of talent too. Sad, back then the cigarette companies pushed smoking as a pleasure and security. The cigarettes were the cause of death of many of Hollywood's stars!
Ashes to ashes ...

0:08 - NOT Irene Ryan! Is IRENE HERVEY. At 1:15 JOAN BENNETT...
sooooo many x's they put the wrong pic n these bios.
Quite a few videos where they inexplicably put photos of other actors in place of the actual subject. No idea why.
@@Shadowking8 I’m sure it’s because it’s the only way they can make a complete story. It’s probably difficult to find old photos of actors at different ages, or whomever else they write stories about.
AsTheCrowFlies correct
@@Shadowking8 Taken from other websites which have also posted the wrong photos...I have seen that photo of Irene Hervey before and it was claimed she was Irene Ryan.
She was Beautiful when she was young, this is the first time I've seen her young. Thank you for the pics.
She should have not smoked. I did as a young person, but quite as a 24. Now I have great lungs.
That’s not what she died from cancer of the brain. It’s a very aggressive cancer. I know my sister died of the same thing get this she never smoked. No cure to this date.
Back in that day MANY people smoked. The dangers of smoking were not as well known and the cigarette companies went to great lengths to hide that information.
O come on, everybody smoked back then. I remember my teachers smoking in front of the class when i was a kid, sometimes even lighting 'm for them haha. Not a smoker myself btw
There was no sad life or sad ending and most of the photos shown aren't even of Irene Ryan. She had a career spanning 60 years and suffered a stroke during a performance aged 70. Everyone will die eventually.
The Life and Sad Ending? Everybody has a sad ending. Death ain't happy!
1:15 is Joan Bennett from Dark Shadows NOT Irene Ryan
Thats joan alright... but not from Dark Shadows it is from a movie called The Woman in the window
Several of the pictures are NOT Irene Ryan. This video should be corrected.

Wow, who would have guessed that Granny was actually pretty as a younger woman? Gives us all something to look forward to..
Why are all deaths characterized as "sad endings" by you folks?
Click bait, that's why...
Loved her as Granny part of my daily life as a child. Bravo! 👍
How is it sad after someone live a full life and end the way we all have to end
I guess it’s always sad when we go when our time is we all want to live forever
Ya know, we start off in diapers and many end up in diapers. That started a long time ago and is still true today. Not really sad if you think about it though. It's just time for someone else to have a chance to enjoy what we did. :)

I'm wondering the same thing. They had some of the best lives around. Vic Morrow definitely had a sad ending. Irene Ryan had a great life.
Funny how half of these photos arent Irene Ryan
What's SAD Is The Various RUclips Channels That Title Their Videos, 'The Life & Sad Ending' Of Whomever It's About. Maybe Some Are Sadder Than Others But Most Are Not.
She was a pip in the Beverly Hillbillies, funny.
Irene lived a full live all the way to the end. Nothing sad about it. Her death at 70 is a bit sooner than a lot of women but that doesn't take away the richness of her life. Granny was a beloved American icon.
❤ granny, one of funniest woman on tv ever
