  Hee-Haw TV Show - Hee-Haw Television Show - TV.com
Hee Haw, a country version of Rowan and Martin's Laugh In, was a staple of syndicated television for more than 20 years.
On occasion, serious music segments were featured, such as a singer-songwriter segment (which featured an artist singing one of his biggest hits and then performing a song he wrote that became a hit for someone else).
The move was none too popular (to put it mildly) with the show\'s longtime viewers, who saw it as abandoning the traditional country focus that had made the show popular for so long.
