I liked when Mr. Douglas went to Sam Drucker’s store to buy board games. Drucker tells him he has Cabbage and Monotony. Douglas corrects him that they are Cribbage and Monopoly. Drucker pulls out the boxes that say Cabbage and Monotony.
That show was a laff-riot
Especially with what i was smoking back in those days
LOL!
I'm with you . . . except I believe it was "Scribble" and "Monotony."
I remember when hired hand Eb Dawson was trying to win a radio contest by identifying songs heard on the Pixley radio station. Every song was *exactly* the same instrumental, but Eb would come up with a song title such as "Five-Foot-Two, Eyes of Purple, Has Anyone Seen My Martian Gurple."
The cow, Eleanor, swallowed the transistor radio, in the middle of the contest.
As Lisa, Eb, and Oliver gathered around her to hear the next song (which sounds exactly the same as the others), Eb excitedly says "I've Got Tears In My Ears From Lying On My Back In My Bed While I Cry Over You!" Oliver says "that sounds just like 'Five-Foot-Two, Eyes of Purple, Has Anyone Seen My Martian Gurple.' (which is does)".
Of course, everyone looks at him as if he's crazy, and Eb says "boy, are you tone deaf!"
That show was one of the most surreal things ever to appear on television.
