There was another one of those old shows that they ran late on Saturday mornings that was funny, in hindsight it likely inspired The Beverly Hillbillies. “Ma & Pa Kettle.”
Do you remember Henry Aldrich or Francis the Talking Mule?
My wife is younger than I and had never heard of Ma and Pa. TCM had a showing of “The Egg and I,” starring Fred MacMurray and Claudette Colbert. The movie was based on a best selling memoir about a New York City couple that moved to New England. The Kettles were their neighbors. That appearance gave birth to a series of several Kettle movies. My wife enjoyed the movie immensely and it stirred some great memories for me.
