On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett.

After nearly 50 years in Hollywood, Dennis Quaid was still afraid to tackle the role of Ronald Reagan in Reagan, the upcoming biopic about the 40th president. The veteran actor admitted as much on the latest episode of Dana Carvey and David Spade's Fly on the Wall podcast, telling the hosts that he was first offered the role of Reagan in 2018, but he didn't sign on immediately. Reagan, he said, is his favorite president of all time, and someone who is "like Muhammad Ali" because "he's known all over the world." For those reasons, Quaid said, "It took me a while to say yes because I was scared to death to play him."
