Hey Vern, It's Ernest! is an American children's television program. It aired on Saturday mornings on CBS for one season in 1988. Each episode involved short sketches on a certain theme or scenario, featuring Ernest P. Worrell (Jim Varney), his unseen friend Vern, and various others. The filming locations were in Nashville, Tennessee and Burbank, California. It 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. The series was later rerun on The Family Channel in the early 1990s.
Various episodes were released on home video—some on DIC Entertainment's own label—in the late 1980s-early 1990s.
DIC streamed several episodes for free viewing on their KEWL Cartoons website until KewlCartoons became Jaroo.
Mill Creek Entertainment released a two-disc DVD set containing all thirteen episodes on January 18, 2011. This release has been discontinued and is out of print.
On February 7, 2017, Mill Creek will re-release the complete series set on DVD.
