Petticoat Junction (1963–1970)
9/10
Excellent old TV
12 June 2012
I watched Petticoat Junction from its first airing, (yeah, I am that old). I enjoyed it then and am enjoying it even more as I watch the series on DVD. It is a time when shows not only did not but could not be extremely suggestive as they are nowadays. I am not a prude by any means but sometimes it is nice to just have good looking women who are funny and not running around in as skimpy a bikini as possible. The reason I did not give it a ten is because after Bea Benaderet, the mom,died during season 3 I believe the shows lost some of their zing. The interactions between mother-daughters and Uncle Joe (a champion loafer) were no longer there and they couldn't find a really good replacement. June Lockhart was okay but no Kate.
