Someone at NBC made the decision to give the Cowsills their own special and also decided the "Cowsills Special" should be only a half hour. He should be congratulated. This is a packed 30 minutes, leaving one with a good feeling, unlike many of the hour specials that wear quite thin around the 45-minute mark. "Beverly Hillbillies" Buddy Ebsen hosts the show and does a little song-and-dance routine of his own. Setting is home of the Cowsills with Mother Barbara and father-founder Bud being introduced along with their six singing off-spring. There is one missing Cowsill, 20-year-old Dick, serving in the Army.
