Knowhutimean? Hey Vern, It's My Family Album is an anthology of comedic short subjects directed by John R. Cherry III, and released direct-to-video in 1983. It was filmed in Nashville, Tennessee. As a whole, it is the first film to feature the advertising character Ernest P. Worrell, played by Jim Varney (who also portrays numerous other characters throughout the picture).
Plot synopsis
The film is set up as a series of sketches featuring Jim Varney's various characters, some of which he introduced in his stand-up comedy routines: Davy, the frontiersman; Ace, the fighter pilot; Lloyd Rowe, the mean-spirited mountain man; Billy, the jive-talking carny; Rhetch, a reckless riverboat gambler; and Ernest's "Pa."
Ernest P. Worrell's appearances serve as a framing device, with the characters introduced as his relatives and the ever-insistent Ernest trying to tell the unwilling-as-usual Vern about the characters.
