    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Arnold the Piggy was the only cast member to win an award for a performance in a sitcom. He won the coveted "Patsy" Award in 1967, given to the best performance by an animal.
    • Goofs
      In the opening song when Oliver sings "You are my wife," he reaches for Lisa with his left hand. As Lisa sings "Goodbye city life," Oliver reaches in and grabs her with his right hand.
    • Quotes

      Lisa Douglas: When you married me you knew that I couldn't cook, I couldn't sew, and I couldn't keep house. All I could do was talk Hungarian and do imitations of Zsa Zsa Gabor.

      Oliver Douglas: Who?

    • Crazy credits
      In some episodes, the opening credits appear in unusual locations (e.g.: chicken eggs, towels, writing on walls, breakfast items, newspaper headlines). In other episodes, the characters - particularly Lisa - react to the appearance of the credits superimposed over them or next to them.

    "Oli-va!"
    Watching this as a child during the late 1960's I didn't like this show. I didn't find it funny because it frustrated me! With all of the locals frustrating Mr. Douglas endlessly, they frustrated me too. Stumbling upon the show years later, the frustration was gone and I could finally enjoy the humor of it all. This was light years ahead of the tame (and boring) "Pettycoat Junction." This was life with "The Three Stooges." I always loved the on-going home improvement projects with the closet doors opening to the outside, the telephone poll phone, the over-blown big chic New York City furniture stuffed into a little farmhouse, Lisa's pink appliances, her cooking, Arnold the pig and many more. When they say they don't make 'em like they used to, they don't, and that's a darn shame.

    FAQ4

    • I've noticed that Mr Heiny has had words censored on some METV reruns. One episode he tries to sell Oliver a "mechanical ---------"
    • Was there ever an episode where someone was in an actual field on a farm? My memory of the series is the the entire show happens on an obvious set, fake everything. Even when someone is on a tractor or digging or plowing, it's a stage.
    • Has anybody else ever noticed that there is a very brief product placement, of sorts, in the opening credits? There is a sign for Camel cigarettes on Times Square. I have to wonder if this was merely a coincidence, or was done on purpose to insert a mini-commercial into the beginning of every episode. And would this run afoul of the ban on cigarette advertising that has existed since the 1970s?
