I love this show, although not as much as the Hillbillies. Ken, Lori Saunders was the hottest Bradley girl! Did you get to touch her?! Geez, I used to have a crush on her. Broke my heart when I found out she was already married and had a kid during her time on "Petticoat Junction".

Every episode of "Green Acres" was directed by Richard Bare, including the pilot, which is unusual. He wrote a great book called, "The Film Director". I've had a copy of it for ages, but I saw a revised edition in the bookstores last year. Good how-to instruction, with behind the scenes pix of "Green Acres", too!

Tim:

Yup, I got to touch her! She was appearing at the 1970 grand opening of a White Front discount store in San Carlos, Calif. at the time. I had a crush on her, too. She had her boy with her and that's when I found out she was married. She was so very nice. Have you seen her website? It's www.lorisaunders.com

Edit:
Tim, I just sent you 3 jpeg photos of Lori from 1970 to your screenattractions email addy.

Yes, you sure did! Man, she's such a baby-doll! Thanks, Ken! It's been a while since I checked out her website, but she has one pix in a see-through top!! I nearly died!

I've been watching these shows over the past couple of weeks. It's really obvious how the actors "find" their characters as the weeks go by. I sure hope they release more seasons....the first season doesn't really catch fire until the Monroe Brothers show up, and Arnold makes more appearances.

The earlier episodes had visits to the Shady Rest Hotel and guest cast members from Petticoat Junction.

True, but in the later seasons Eb had some pretty cute girlfriends.

And there was that "farmer" named Terry Harper that showed up and turned out to be a gorgeous woman...

And the "high school girl" that developed a crush on Mr. Douglas...

It's great that they are bringing back the classics to DVD. Green Acres was one of a kind. Ironically, they made our Green Acres cinema into a fabric store.
