Have you ever seen any of the "Ernest" movies?

Question

The Ernest character was portrayed by Character actor Jim Varney who was actually a very good Shakespearean style actor but found his most iconic role as Ernest P Worrell, a know it all but friendly redneck.

GoodManDave · Accepted Answer

Yes. Scared stupid and Saves Christmas. I’ve also seen most of the commercials.

Jim Varney was Slinky Dog for Toy Story and Toy Story 2. He was “Cooter” in the Simpsons episode about Carnies, and I believe he was Jed in one of the Beverly Hillbillies movies that were made in the 90’s.

Oh ya lol. I love them
They dont make this type of comedy anymore. Now its all filled with sexual content, political jokes and various other crap
