Petticoat Junction: The Chicken Killer (1965)

Synopsis of Petticoat Junction: The Chicken Killer

In one of Petticoat Junction's rare fantasy episodes, the Bradley girls' beloved dog (played by future Benji star Higgins) is accused of being a chicken killer by sadistic dogcatcher Hinky Mittenfloss (brilliantly played by the inimitable, squeaky-voiced Percy Helton). Thrown into a dog pound that more closely resembles a miniature Alcatraz, the pooch awaits his fate while Betty Jo (Linda Kaye) pleads for his life in a surrealistic courtroom. This episode was cowritten by Al Schwartz, the brother of Gilligan's Island and Brady Bunch creator Sherwood Schwartz. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
