I believe she was the neighbor, Blanch, on the Burns And Allen show as well, in the mid 50s
She sure was, and she had three completely different actors who looked and acted completely unalike portray her husband, Harry Morton. One of them was always sneaking food, the last and most famous one, Larry Keating, was very much a snob. YOu wonder how they got married in the first place. George broke the fourth wall in explaining the new Mr. Harry Morton by having all the characters "freeze" as he explained the change to the audience. Much more respectful of the audience than the fake Darrin on Bewitched. I always though that she looked tallish on Burns and Allen and short on Petticoat Junction, but that's probably because Gracie and Allen and George were quite short, and the the lovely ladies on Petticoat Junction were fairly tall (and Bea probably shrunk with age).

Thanks for the update. Didn’t think too many people remembered Burns and Allen.
