Petticoat Junction - S06 E01 - Birthplace Of A Future President Part 1

This one is for up4004 by personal request, then back to finish season five.

A regular visitor to the Shady Rest who has been away for a while returns for a visit to find everything just as it always has been. Well, except Steve and Betty Jo apparently got REALLLY busy over the summer. ;-} Oh, and for you Bobbie Jo fans out there, she's in a bathing suit in the beginning of this one. :-} This one also introduces Byron Foulger playing the new Engineer - Wendell Gibbs. He's only on in season six as Rufe Davis as Floyd was gone this year. I could Google the reason, but figure so can y'all. :-}

This is great, Nickel, I love classic television! "Can we keep him?" that's funny. I like the dog too, he may be more talented than Fostabelle, lol.

@butterfly7704 The dog in question also played Benji in the "Benji" movies in the 70s. he was one smart dog. Higgins was his real name I do believe, although if I'm wrong I'm sure one of the faithful will gently correct me. lol

I love that line. I'm eating for two. No your not, I can eat for myself. lol

@sallyjosie And the look on that guys face when she walks down the stairs?

I love the flashback element in this....wonderful episode! Thank you so much for sharing with us.

Wendell was okay, but the show was not the same without Charley. Him and Floyd were a great comedy team. The show lost a lot of comedic edge without them. Smiley's death affected the series just as much as that of Bea Benaderet.

Luckily Floyd returns in the final season. Agree anyone?

@1964nickel I thought he looked familiar. Wow, Benji, been years since I've seen that. So this dog is more than talented, he's a Hollywood legend, lol.

@1964nickel I know. Yeah, nothing has changed. lol I wish there were more Dr's like Dr Stuart. He was a cool Dr. I also liked the Dr over on 'My Three Sons'. Dr Osborne. There's something about the small town Dr's that I like.
