Silly, it's true, but still loads of fun!

The complete first season of the classic television sitcom from 1965-1966 is wonderful....if you like the nonsense of Hooterville. Yes, indeedy, Hooterville was there Long before Hooters, but, I digress.
If you grew up without a television (as I did) or you are very young, you might actually have missed these shows when they aired to the American population. Just in case, I will tell you a little about the characters, and the premise and you can run out and buy the set to see all the silliness for yourself!
The main characters are:
Oliver, played by Eddie Albert. Oliver is a NYC lawyer who has always yearned to own a farm and live in the country.
Lisa, played by Eva Gabor. Lisa is the Hungarian beauty, whose understanding and use of the English language sets up much of the humor. Lisa LOVES the city and does NOT want to be in the country on a farm. But Lisa loves Oliver, and Oliver is the husband, so she obliges, moving to Hooterville.
Hooterville's local residents, best described as bumpkins, or misfit oddballs, add to the general confusion of life in the country for the married couple.
My husband is crazy about this show and has been very happy with the DVD set of Season 1. His favorite character is Arnold....a PIG!!!
If you are a fan of absurd plot, but from a time of clean and wholesome programming, this wiil be nice addition to your collection.
