Summary: Viva Hooterville!
Review: I saw Eddie Albert signing a copy of this book at a nostalgia event in Los Angeles in 1998 and I had to go out and buy this book. It's fantastic. You will need no other book to find out about this surreal and wonderful TV classic. Author Steve Cox has done a great job covering the bizarre characters and the exquisite cast of actors who made up this neat show. The photos are rare and presented in the book with a nice design and the Foreword by my favorite character, Hank Kimball, is hilarious. If you want a book about a Sixties TV show and you like Paul Henning's programs ( The Beverly Hillbillies and Petticoat Junction) then you'll love this book. Don't pass it up.

Summary: The Low-down on our favorite small town.
Review: The Hooterville Handbook gives the reader unknown knowledge about the creation, and development of one of the kookiest sitcoms, "Green Acres". It supplies various essays regarding the impact of and interesting things about Hootervile (also Green Acres) and all of its locals. What was so special about Arnold the pig? WAS that salesman married or not? Such pressing questions are masterfully answered by Mr. Cox. Only one glitch, that seems to occur in most of Cox's Classic TV books; he doesn't seem to enjoy writing, watching, or doing anything involving his profession. He writes with a cold air of superiority, which could come across as professional, or rudely distant. Overall, however, this book was fascinating, a good read, and had the insights of the cast, crew, and random essay writers.

Summary: A must read if you want the dirt on Arnold Ziffel...
Review: Two words: Arnold Ziffel. What made the great man tick, you ask? How did he become such a star? How do you explain his magnetism with females? And what about the lackeys that powdered his nose, wrote his lines, and tried unsuccessfully to steal scenes from him? Was he really a PIG? It's all here, if you've got the stomach to read this uncensored look at the wisecracking shenanigans behind then scenes on one of TV's weirdest and most enduring sitcoms...
