In the mid 17th century all living organisms were classified into two kingdoms, plants and animals (both multicellular organisms). However, advances in microscopy and biochemistry led to the discovery of microscopic organisms which were unicellular, so didn't fit into either group. This led Haekel to suggest the three-kingdom system in the 1860s. He added the kingdom Protista which comprised the unicellular or unicellular-colonial organisms (including the bacteria). The idea of a third kingdom lay dormant for almost a century (Whittaker, 1959). Opposition to three kingdoms heralded the start of a tradition which is still evident, involving the 'lumpers' who favour a two-kingdom scheme and the 'splitters' who support three or more kingdoms (Margulis, 1981). However by the 1960s the unchallenged position of the two kingdoms had ended and a three-kingdom systems were widely used and appeared in many Biology texts.

If you are referring to the Ernest P. Worrell character played by Jim Varney, there are currently five films. They include Ernest Goes to Camp (1987), Ernest Goes to Splash Mountain (1989), Ernest Goes to Jail (1990), Ernest Goes to School (1994), and Ernest Goes to Africa (1997). One of the movies, Ernest Goes to Splash Mountain, is a made-for-TV movie rather than a theatrical release. Now there are 13 movies, if you include the last five plus, Ernest Saves Christmas, Ernest Scared Stupid, Ernest Greatest Hits 1 & 2, Ernest Rides Again, Slam Dunk Ernest, Your World As I See It is not technically an Ernest film but he does play the character Ernest P. Worrell, and finally Ernest In The Army. =)
