Green Acres is an American television series starring Eddie Albert and Eva Gabor as a couple who move from New York City to a country farm. Produced by Filmways, Inc., as a sister show to Petticoat Junction, the series was broadcast on CBS from September 15, 1965, to April 27, 1971.

With the success of The Beverly Hillbillies and Petticoat Junction, CBS offered producer Paul Henning another half-hour on the schedule — unusually with no pilot required. Lacking the time, he encouraged colleague Jay Sommers to create the series. Sommers used his 1950 radio series, Granby's Green Acres, as the basis for the new series. The 13-episode radio series had starred Gale Gordon and Bea Benaderet (who also appeared in the TV version) as a big-city family who move to the country.

In pre-production, proposed titles were Country Cousins and The Eddie Albert Show.[1] Green Acres was about Oliver Wendell Douglas (Albert), an accomplished and erudite New York City attorney, acting on his dream to be a farmer, and Lisa Douglas (Gabor), his glamorous, bejeweled Hungarian wife, dragged unwillingly from the privileged city life she adored to a ramshackle farm. The debut episode was a mock documentary about this big-city attorney's decision to move to a rural area, narrated by CBS newscaster (and host of the game show What's My Line) John Charles Daly. A few weeks after the show's debut, Albert and Gabor returned the favor by appearing on What's My Line as that episode's Mystery Guests, and publicly thanked Daly for helping to launch their series.

After the first episodes the series shifted from a run-of-the-mill rural comedy, developing an absurdist world. Though there were still many episodes that were standard 1960s sitcom fare, the show became notable for its surreal aspects that frequently included satire. They had an appeal to children for the slapstick, silliness, and shtick, though adults were able to appreciate it on a different level.

It was set in the same universe as Henning's other rural television comedy Petticoat Junction, featuring such picturesque towns as Hooterville (mispronounced "Hootersville" by Lisa), Pixley, Crabwell Corners, and Stankwell Falls. As a spin-off, it at times shared some of the same characters. Sometimes Petticoat Junction folks, such as Joe Carson, Newt Kiley, and Floyd Smoot, are seen in "cross-over" episodes and vice versa. While Petticoat Junction frequently had crossover storylines with Beverly Hillbillies, Green Acres treated Beverly Hillbillies as a fictional TV show one episode had the Hooterville Community Theater recreate an episode of the series as a play, and references were made to star Buddy Ebsen and producer and creator Henning. In the Beverly Hillbillies episode "The Thanksgiving Spirit", members of the three programs share a Thanksgiving meal with the Clampetts as they visit Hooterville.

Much of the humor of the series derived from the pragmatic yet short-fused Oliver attempting to make sense of the largely insane world around him. There seemed to be a dual perspective of reality: Oliver versus everyone else. The latter envelops the Hootervillians - and inexplicably Oliver's affluent mother (Eleanor Audley). Mother Douglas lampoons Oliver and mollifies Lisa. There were times when it appeared that Oliver himself lost his bearings, such as when he rented a rooster or climbed a telephone pole to make a call.

The dishonest, oily salesman Mr. Haney (Pat Buttram), who sold Oliver the Green Acres farm, continues to con his easy "mark" in most episodes. Haney, along with young, glib farmhand Eb Dawson (Tom Lester), scatterbrained county agent Hank Kimball (Alvy Moore), and grocer Sam Drucker (Frank Cady), make up the main supporting cast. Eb habitually addressed the Douglases as "Dad" and "Mom", to Oliver's irritation.

  • She is so damn cute!

  • Hmmmm . . . showering with your underwear on??? Oh well . . . Eva Gabor was an underrated MILF, and the best looking of the three Gabor sisters. I always liked this show. I don't think it's on TV Land anymore. They need to bring back more classic TV and lose the reality shows, as well as the shows like "Cold Case", which has been in production less than ten years and, while it is good, is nowhere near old enough to be called a "classic".

  • shes cute but i love watching Douglass get pissed off

  • Green Acres is my favorite Sitcom ever, and Lisa is my favorite Character. She starts off in the first ep, as a bit of a whiny itch-bay, but she soon develops into one of the sweetest, most Lovable Leading Ladies in TV history! I like how, despite her initially aversion to moving to Hooterville, she really fit in there far better than Oliver ever did. And yea, Eva Gabor = Classy, Sexy, BEAUTIFUL!
