Did you know
- TriviaThe show got very good ratings during its entire two year run. The only reason it went off the air was because star Barbara Mandrell was suffering from exhaustion.
- Quotes
Dolly Parton: [Barbara is dressed as Dolly Parton when the real Dolly enters] What have you got in there... your sisters?
- Crazy creditsDuring the closing credits of a 1981 episode, where Barbara is riding a mechanical bull in the background, hair stylist Monique DeSart is credited as "Monique DeFart." The credits were rolling at a faster-than-usual speed (most likely because of said credit), so one wasn't supposed to blink or they would miss that controversial credit. (Ms. DeSart's surname was restored to normal - as well as the credits rolling at the normal speed - in succeeding episodes.)

Featured review
If you, like me, long for the complete series to be released, please let your voice be heard! The "Best of" DVD set will only tide us over until the series is released. I consider the best of Barbara Mandrell and the Mandrell sisters to be Barbara, Louise and Irlene - not the guest stars. The guests are great, but they are not these three tremendously talented ladies. There is not enough of Louise singing solo. There are not enough of the instrumentals. There is not enough of the sketch comedy. Not enough of the dancing. Not enough of anything, really. It's like teasing someone dying of thirst with only a drop of water. We still love you Barbara, Louise and Irlene "After All These Years"! Cyd
