Granby's Green Acres was a 13-episode radio series that starred Gale Gordon and Bea Benaderet as a big-city family who move to the country. Parley Baer played Eb, the hired hand. You might remember Benaderet as Cousin Pearl Bodine (Jethro's mother) in the TV series The Beverly Hillbillies and on Petticoat Junction. Also she was the voice of Betty Rubble on the cartoon series The Flintstones. Gordon played the second Mr. Wilson (after the death of Joseph Kearns) on Dennis the Menace. When that show ended in spring 1963, Gordon joined The Lucy Show as Mooney for the 1963-64 season. Granby's Green Acres was the basis for Green Acres, the American television series that was produced by Filmways, Inc. and originally broadcast on CBS from September 15, 1965 to September 7, 1971.
