Reviews"Green Acres' is a guilty pleasure. It is nice to watch it as a grown-up because the show was a as weird as I thought it was. It is a very peculiar show." -- Matt Groening, creator of "The Simpsons" "Oh fer the love of...'Green Acres.' This show is now a part of Americana and this book should certainly be a part of your library." -- Eddie Albert, "Green Acres' is a guilty pleasure.

Edition DescriptionRevised edition
SynopsisSay good-bye to city life, fire up the jalopy, and return to the pastoral pastures of Hooterville and the wacky world of Lisa and Oliver Wendell Douglas, where everything makes, er, its own sort of sense. Actually, it doesn't make any sense, and The Hooterville Handbook brings it all to life with: -A foreward by Hank Kimball, your county agent. -Revealing interviews with the men and women responsible for this timeless television treat. -Behind-the-scenes peeks into the farmhouse, the Olivers' bedroom and the private life of Arnold Ziffel, the popular porcine star of the show. -A complete guide to all 170 episodes. Hooterville is still the one place in the world where the grass is always greener, and this delightful book will surely turn anyone who doesn't own it green with envy.

  • Good Info but not "exclusive"

    The Bad (which is not bad) Much of the information as to the characters etc are available online but not the pictures. I would of liked if the magazine had more information on the actual "location" of the town Hooterville or at least conjecture but the "subject" was only "touched" vet lightly The Great! Episode information is very good, several "hidden" reference as the culture of the 60s which is "funny" as to how Oliver gets "stoned" and how back then it meant Alcohol but there are several "references" to being on "something" The "retro" episodes are examined as well and good trivia as to Arnold! Also the comments from the Actors themselves are interesting and also give references to other magazines one could search for like TV guides and film magazines which one might not ever be aware about otherwise!

  • The book needed more information about each episode and many more photos.

    Good information about the cast of Green Acres but scant information and few photos about each of the 170 episodes. I wished the author would have given a entire page per episode, so it would give a better synopsis of the episode. Still, the book is a good one and I'm glad to have it in my collection.
