Petticoat Junction (1963–1970)
3/10
The least of the "hick comedies"
23 December 2017
I wouldn't even watch this one when I was a kid and would watch almost anything. There was no real "concept" as there was for the other sit-coms of the age... "Green Acres" had city folk in the country, "Beverly Hillbillies" had country folk in the city, but this was just a hotel in the same fictional vicinity as those other two superior shows came from. It was difficult to tell the three girls apart, especially because of the casting changes. And, to be really nit-picky about it, I remember learning from characters on one of the Paul Henning series that the Cannonball only traveled between Hooterville and Pixley, back and forth... so where is the "Junction" of which the title speaks?

Nothing here of much interest. I tried it again as an adult to see if I was missing anything, and the answer was "no".
