Hey Vern, It's Ernest! is a short lived American children's television program. It aired on Saturday mornings on CBS for one season, from 1988 to 1989. Each episode involved short sketches based around a certain theme or scenario (much like You Can't Do That on Television), featuring the popular fictional character Ernest P. Worrell (Jim Varney), his unseen friend Vern, and various others. The series was a production of Ernest creator John Cherry's production company, The Emshell Producers' Group, in association with CBS, and was distributed by DIC Entertainment. Various episodes were released on home video—some on DIC Entertainment's own label—in the late 1980s-early 1990s. A collection of skits from the show was released in 1994 under the title Your World as I See It. DIC streams several episodes for free viewing on their KEWL Cartoons website. less
