Last Minute Sales & Specials

The long-running television classic "Petticoat Junction" (CBS-TV, 1963-1970) was one of the most successful and beloved situation comedies of the 1960s. Created by Paul Henning, the same mastermind behind "The Beverly Hillbillies", "Petticoat Junction" ranked as the fourth-highest rated series during its debut season. Set in the folksy farming community of Hooterville, "Petticoat Junction" centers on Kate Bradley, a widow who runs the charming Shady Rest Hotel with the help of her three beautiful young daughters - Billie Joe, Bobbie Joe and Betty Joe - along with the girls' Uncle Joe. Sam Drucker runs the local general store. Railroad engineers Charlie Pratt and Floyd Smoot operate the Cannonball, a steam engine train that runs through the valley and brings a host of interesting visitors and humorous mishaps to the Shady Rest. This Ultimate Collection features 20 rare and restored episodes from the show's first year, complete wit the original theme song plus all-new, trivia-packed introductions by actress Linda Kaye Henning (Betty Joe Bradley) and a wealth of other extras.
