What is your favorite Paul Henning show? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Bonniegirl · 11-28-2015, 03:50 PM

I chose Petticoat Junction, but it's really tough because I love Green Acres too!

But to choose one I'm picking PJ!!!

I added other because besides Petticoat Junction, Green Acres and Beverly Hillbillies maybe there are other Paul Henning shows that I don't know about ?

It's hard to choose since I like all three! But I eventually voted for Green Acres!

Mr. Television · 11-28-2015, 06:05 PM

The Beverly Hillbillies...probably my favorite 1960's sitcom.

I absolutely adore all 3 of these shows. All 3 are national treasures!

My favorite is "Green Acres" followed by "Petticoat Junction" then "The Beverly Hillbillies".

Come on guys.....we need more of ALL 3 of these shows on DVD! Studios need to either piss or get off the pot and start putting these shows out on DVD for the fans!

I like all of them but my fave is green acres

Green Acres would be my favorite. Beverly Hillbillies is alright but not one of my favorites shows. I really haven't seen much Petticoat Junction so I really don't know that much about it. But I love Green Acres. I wish they would release the rest of it on DVD.

I have never seen, Green Acres. I saw an episode or two of petticoat junction and liked it. But I'll have to go with The Beverly Hillbillies because I saw more episodes of it.

All of the Above!

Oh wow! You've never seen Green Acres? You would love it!

It's really hilarious, very funny & unique characters! And if you've seen Petticoat Junction ,it's really cool. Some of the Petticoat Junction characters are also on Green Acres! Both PJ & GA take place in the same town of Hooterville!

It's been a long time since I saw Green Acres, but if I'm not mistaken, didn't the format change slightly? In the early episodes, I think Lisa was the "voice of reason" and Oliver was the more eccentric one. Then the roles were reversed. Or am I wrong in my memory?

Also, how did the 3 shows rank in popularity?

Such a sweet whole some wonderful show!!!!

Even if I am very sad if I watch Petticoat Junction it will make my mood so much better!

Like I said I LOVE Green Acres too, it's so fun and silly!

But Petticoat Junction IDK, it's like Kate and the girls are my family, like long lost cousins or something!! When I was a little girl I wanted to live at the Shady Rest and be the fourth Bradley sister!

I don't think I ever saw the Bob Cummings show! That wasn't a "rural" show was it?
