Tired of hanging around the house and feeling useless, Jed looks forward to joining the board of directors of a second-rate oil company. But when it becomes clear that he's been hired as merely a figurehead, Jed feels worse than ever. By the time the episode has run its course, the Clampett patriarch has accepted a job as a trash collector. Barry Kelly guest stars as Mr. Brachner. "Jed Joins the Board" was originally telecast on November 16, 1966.
