“Arnold say’s he don’t wanna ride in the back seat Mr. Douglas’’.

Mr. Douglas:”You mean that pig can talk!?!’’
Mr. Ziphell: “Aw now ya gone and hurt his feelins’, he don’t think he’s a pig at all.’’

Mr. Douglas: “Well what does he think’’?
Mr. Ziphell: “He thinks he’s Lassie’’.

I really got a flashback to the Sixties there!

Now, I literally have not heard that song since probably 1967...seriously.

And as I read it, I wasn’t hearing what you wrote, I was hearing:

There’s a little hotel called “The Shady Rest’’ at the junction
PETTICOAT JUNCTION!
it is run by Kate come and be her guest at the Junction
PETTICOAT JUNCTION!
and there’s Uncle Joe he’s a movin’ kinda slow at the Junction’’.
PETTICOAT JUNCTION!

Hahahahaha...talk about a door not opened for a long, long time!

Thanks for that!

"...I mean you have a dumb blond that dresses in a harem costume who lives in a bottle and comes out takes orders from her male master..."

Ehhh...you say that like it's a bad thing!

(ducks from SOMETHING thrown by SOMEONE!)

Thanks for the funny pic. But how does it relate to Gilligan?

[jmacusa]

You’re welcome.

Nope. Dawn Wells hands down! That tush! She’s sexy and cute as a button.

[rlmorel]

I’m with you on that, brother!

At the time “Jeanie’’ premiered there was no feminist movement. The first season premiered in 1964 in black and white because color tv didn't come out until '65. All the shows of that era were in black and white. "The Wild Wild West''(one of my favorites, along with "Combat'' also in b&w), ''Gilligan's Island'', "Gun Smoke'' "McHale's Navy'', so many of them.
