I like the way Granny & Cousin Pearl hold the cigs like joints.

I'm not sure these could really be classed as advertisments, I mean they are sooooooooooooooooo subtle. Although I do feel like having a smoke now.

I'm only now beginning to realize the brilliance of Buddy Ebsen, Irene Ryan, Nancy Culp, & Raymond Bailey in their roles on this show. Talk about walking a tightrope between surrealism & buffonery!

Yeah, the tone of this show is just perfect. It's easy to write this show off as a light, ridiculous comedy, but Buddy and Max are just spot-on. One of my favorite shows, maybe my favorite sitcom.
