Wow. I never knew this existed before. But I'm glad that it does.
A Day in the Life of Green Acres (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PtakUulufNk#)

I loved Green Acres. It was the funniest damn show on television, bar none. Eddie Albert was the ultimate straight man.
And I can still enjoy watching it.
It's like the Three Stooges in that I love it and my wife abhors it. So that just proves that it's great.

I was just a kid then, but it was my favorite show. In hindsight, it was sort of proto-Monty Python in its absurdity.

One of the really funny contrivances was how a joke would come up in the beginning of an episode and keep coming back throughout the rest of the show with different characters referencing it . My favorite character was Hank Kimball , the constantly befuddled agriculture agent played by Alvie Moore .

It seemed like everything was better back then. And I think that is more than just nostalgia talking! The actors, writers the overall quality was better. Very little in the way of entertainment entertains me today...where vulgarity and left-speak assault the thinking mind in unending waves of detritus.
