1 review. ES. Apr 14, 2024. Green Acres is a total scam. 120 euros for three months of advertising, I contacted the site for a technical problem and I had a person (three times, for the same problem) who told me each time: "I'm going to refer to technical service”, and of course nothing was done.

The sitcoms of the 1960s weren't afraid to push things in absurd directions, and "The Birthday Gift" was one of the show's strangest episodes. On Lisa's birthday, Oliver gifts her a brand new horse.

Hooterville was usually immune to the darker aspects of the outside world, but "I Didn't Raise My Pig to Be a Soldier" reminded viewers about current events.

Proving that there was no such thing as a good thing, many of Green Acres' episodes dealt with the fuzzy pink star named Arnold.

While there, the pig is treated like royalty while the Douglases are k...

absolutely brilliant. planktonrules 2 March 2006. I'll admit it. I must be pretty low-brow because I am a huge sucker for this series. The chemistry and silliness are really hard to beat.
