    Thank's for the good memories just now:):):):):). Always loved this show and never missed an episode. I remember after the show went off the air my friends and i would peddle ours bike's downtown and stare at the Cannonball w-tender through the giant plate glass windows at the Old Hoyt Hotel & Barbary Coast Lounge, on Broadway St. in Portland,Oregon in the early 70's. I will never forget those trips or how REALLY BIG that locomotive seemed to be when i was 13 and in junior high.

    The train the cannoball is fromn the Sierra Railway in Sonora California, also used in the wild wild west. It is now a California State Park Railtown 1887, and you can actually ride the on the Cannonball pulled train on weekends.

    This is from the THIRD season (the first two were in black and white)--when Lori Saunders and Gunilla Hutton took over Bobbie Jo and Billie Jo, respectively. There is a Facebook campaign to bring season 3 and beyond to DVD--if you love the show, please come join!

    This is from season three (1965 to 1966), the show's first season in color and the only season to show Gunilla Hutton as Billie Jo Bradley. If you watch the season four opening, you can tell that this Billie Jo from the video above has blonder hair. That's because Hutton was replaced by Meredith MacRae starting in season four, who remained until the end.

    I wonder how many people know the past credits of Bea Benaderette and Edgar Buchannan prior this television series Bea died prior to the ending of the series and a a stunt double was used during the last season. June Lockhart's role as the "country" doctor was added to the show.

  • @KarateDude97
    @KarateDude97 15 років тому +1

    Probably was, cuz its the country, they most likely use wells out there in Hooterville, atleast they did in Green Acres as seen in the season 2 episode "water, water everywhere"

    Paul Henning was the head writer on the Burns & Allen TV Show in the 1950, when Benaderette played Blanche Morton. When Henning created "The Beverly Hillbillies" he created the Pearl Bodine part for Bea, and then put her into the role of Kate Bradley the following year. That also forced her to give up voicing Betty on "The Flinstones," just as the TV work for B&A forced Benaderette to seed her role as the main female voice on Warner Bros. cartoons to June Foray in 1955.

    Well in the earlier black and white opening, there was no dog at all. He was added when the show went to color.
    Also in season 4, the opening with the girls in the water tower had to be re-shot again as Meredith took over the Billie Jo character from Gunilla Hutton. HOWEVER... the scene where the girls climb down from the tower to great the Cannonball was never again refilmed. So even after Meredith Macrae had taken over the role, that STILL Gunilla Hutton in the long shots!

    Actually about Bea almost playing Granny, based on the story that I've heard, she WAS offered the part, but she told them she's gladly play a different character (that other role ended up being Cousin Pearl) ,and that only one person could be Granny, and that was Irene Ryan, and she was right.

    This intro is not season 2 - it is season 3. The first two seasons were Black and White. You can check any episode guide on the internet if you are in doubt.

    @elc1960 14 років тому +1

    @shangrila1964 Lots of people didn't care for the concept of the "lady MD" character on Petticoat Junction. In 1972, when they cancelled the show (along with Hee Haw, The Beverly Hillbillies and Green Acres, in one fell swoop) they may have done it to lose all the rural themed shows, but they would have ended up axing Junction anyway due to its abysmal ratings in its last 2 seasons. The other 3 shows I named were all in the Nielsen Top 30 shows at the time they were cancelled.

  • @OldsVistaCruiser
    @OldsVistaCruiser 15 років тому +1

    There were comments made on an episode of That '70s Show about the double meanings on this show, including the town's name, Hooterville.
    How about the lines in this theme song, "lots of curves, you bet, even more when you get...to the junction - Petticoat Junction!"
    Think about what part of a woman's anatomy is at the "petticoat junction"!

    @Sheri451
    Yes I have ME TV too, and it's great to see this series again. You know doubt noticed that when Meredith took over the role and when Mike Minor joined as Steve at the same time, "Petticoat Junction" became a truly different series, as there was more significant singing and musical performances than ever before. I'm sure you noticed that singing became more common from season 4 onward. In the earlier, pre-Meredith shows, the emphasis was more on slapstick comedy.
    comedy

    • @dmnemaine
      @dmnemaine 3 роки тому

      Actually, Mike Minor joined the cast the season before Meredith MaCrae joined the cast. Mike Minor started out as Billie Jo's love interest during the Gunilla Hutton season . Mereditch MacRae came in at the start of the next season, and Mike Minor switched girls to Betty Jo, and Billie Jo went from boy crazy to being serious about a music career.

    Lori Saunders,wasnt she a knockout? She played Bobbie Jo,the brunette middle child, in all the colour episodes, from 1965 to 1970. If theyre in black/white, then, it was Pat Woodell, equally gorgeous as the original Bobbie Jo, from 1963 to 1965.

    Gunilla Hutton was Billi Jo #2, and by far the sexiest of the 3 Billi Jo's. Lori Saunders, Bobbi Jo #2 was pretty damn cute too.
    Bea Benaderette had the role of Kate, created for her. She had tried out for the role of "Granny" on Beverly Hillbillies, but lost out to Irene Ryan.
    the show was total entertainment, good ol' escapeism. Too bad todays tv didn't take lessons !!!!

  • @zodiolestes
    @zodiolestes 15 років тому +1

    Did you guys know that the blonde up above, Gunilla Hutton,playing Billie Jo,for only 1 season, was in real life, Nat King Coles Mistress?! The press got wind of it, so they had to fire her. I mean, a dead married Black mans mistress? In 1965?! They got Jungle Fever before the phrase was even coined!

    @slcrawford2003 Correction!!! Bea Benederet recommended Irene Ryan herself. Bea B. was too full figured for Granny. Irene Ryan was acceptable.

    As I understand it, in the final season, the lyrics after the "Shady Rest" part were changed to:
    It is run by Joe, come and be his guest at the Junction.
    There's a lady indeed, she's as pretty as can be at the Junction.

      "There's a lady M.D., she's as pretty as can be ..." June Lockhart's character was a doctor.

    Kathy Jo was played at first, by twins Heather And Barbara Whiter during her birth and for the rest of season 6.
    For the seventh, and final season, the more familiar Kathy Jo, the red-headed Elna Danielle Hubbell took over.
    As you know sitcom kids, is that they don't age in real time. So I'm guessing if there had been an eighth season; they would have gotten and even older kid to play the part. So Kathy Jo would then probably be four or five years of age and would be able to talk!

    • @dmnemaine
      @dmnemaine 3 роки тому +1

      Bewitched was unusual in that Erin Murphy played Tabitha from season three onwards, sharing the role with twin sister Diane for all of season three and part of season four.

    *All in All? Linda Kaye/ BettyJo was ALWAYS my favourite. She was pretty, funny and had the most personality OUT OF ALL OF EM! Also, i Luv Redheads! Unlike 4Blonde BillieJos, and 2Brunette BobbiJos, there was only 1 Redheaded BettyJo from 1963 to 1970! Miss Linda Kaye Henning!
