I was born in 75 and I love the older TV shows from the early '60s especially black and white shows. So, much better than TV nowadays I don't even have cable!
Bobbie Jo was always the bookworm. Had she not spent so much time in books maybe she could have seen him as trouble, & not be blinded by his words. See Alan for what he really was, as Kate put it "a parasite."
Charlie's poem goes like this: There was a young girl from Duluth Whose boyfriend had only one tooth Their lips met one night As he held her tight And then she exclaimed, "Forsooth!" Pretty risque for Hooterville.
Season 1 Episode 16 - Original airdate January 7, 1964The episodes of the first two seasons haven't been on TV in decades. TVLand and MeTV have only aired seasons 3-7.
elvicare35 I noticed an episode a few weeks ago that was in black and white - it turned out to be only the third episode where a bum arrives at the Shady Rest, who is really the CEO of the train company.
I agree with Alan. Small talk is so phony. And people don’t really care how you are they just wanna hear you say I’m fine and then they can carry on with their day. I wouldn’t say Alan is bitter. I would say he’s a realist and he see things for what they really are. 👍
Jeffrey Pearson lol they would have too do a sight more than shout in the ear of sleeping America because it's not the sleeping it's the brain dead now with the Trumptards. The roll this guy played wasn't the way beatniks were it was the way hate mongers seen them at the time. I remember when hippies come along there was a lot of hate in them day's in some parts of America you would get beat up for just having long hair. Now in them parts some of them have long hair just like the people they beat up even some of the country and western singers have long hair.
Now they’re brain dead and comatose. And it doesn’t matter what political party, they are nearly all brain dead...except for those who have turned off their idiot boxes and done their own homework, without benefit of a disinfo site. They aren’t stupid enough to let the idiot box or the disinfo sites tell them who to blame...
i gotta believe that smoking scene was very controversial at the time. now that smoking is so unacceptable, i think it may be even more controversial today.
Those are the kind of guys who ruin innocent women, lowering them like a bird in a snare... eagle? More like a STORK. So profound, NOT, void, YES! She said it, in love with himself, a legend in his own mind. Rebel with no cause. She said it, parasite... Show some respect, get some back. LOVE family circles...
Personally, I was glad that the beatnik didn't go along with Billie Jo's come-on. I thought Billie Jo was too conceited(at least originally)and was glad to see her get a come-uppence.

DENNIS HOPPER AS THE BEATNIK. GROOVY MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent episode! One of the best of the series!
This is the most pleasant and funny show that I've ever known.

Dennis Hopper...in Hooterville...yes :) I was only 2 weeks old when this aired.
I was born three days after it aired.
Don’t mess with Mrs Bradley!
Excellent episode of Petticoat Junction !
I think one of the best!
"He's so profound!" "And you met him in Hooterville?" The poetry reading was classic. Dennis Hopper always played the same character.
So Dennis Hopper played Dennis Hopper in all his roles.
Loved the poetry session! Lol. 😂
Wow, Dennis out did himself in this episode.

" I shout in the atrophied ear of a sleeping America" LMAO , good stuff.

YES!!!
The sort of opportunities an actor gets after he's picked a fight with Henry Hathaway!
love it

That is unlikely as cigarettes were widely advertised on TV until 1971.
No I don't think it was controversial at all back then. All of Hollywood smoked.

LOVE family circles...
Ya know I thought Betty Jo was in every single episode of Petticoat Junction, but I just found out yesterday, she wasn't in 3 of them
Dennis Hopper.
Wow Dennis Hopper I don't think he had to act too much it might as well been a joint he offered Bobbie Joe it couldn't have been far from Easy Rider
thanx
Dennis Hopper - always the malcontent, even this early. Misunderstood, bad-tempered, moody...
@Gar Goil Good looking too.
He acted this way in his first episode of The Rifleman...
Betty Jo does not appear in this episode--a rarity. Apparently Linda Kaye was too ill with mononucleosis to make an appearance.

oh, and Allen has a realistic self-image?
I agree that there is a certain pleasure in seeing/hearing Billie's allurements suffer disdain. At the same time, Alan is very rude and narcisistic.
Dennis Hopper. Where's his Harley and Peter Fonda ?
She could have waited a couple of years and dated a hippie.
Lol Decades later and Dennis Hopper is still a crappy actor...lol
Gets on my nerves how all uncle Joe does is talk about how dumb Kate is and how women don't know anything
