It's actually pretty amazing that this show and its spin off, Green Acres, are so different. Even though they had the same producers, some of the same cast (particularly in the first season), shared writers and were set in the same town, they were as different as night and day. Petticoat Juntion was more like a leisurely stroll--occasionally funny, but often just a bit flat and happy. Green Acres, on the other hand, was like the same show after the writers were given LSD or so other hallucinogen. I, for one, never liked Petticoat Junction very much, as it was just too conventional and seemed a lot like My Three Sons placed out in the country. Green Acres is simply better on every level.
