Must be hard on the cast.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

He also wrote the theme & created The Beverly Hillbillies"

Critics called it lowbrow meanwhile he laughed all the way to the bank
