The opening episode of Green Acres begins in the form of a "person-to-person" TV interview, as successful attorney Oliver Wendell Douglas (Eddie Albert) tells moderator John Daly of his plans to move out of his fashionable Manhattan penthouse apartment and into a farm in the faraway town of Hooterville. Oliver's sophisticated wife Lisa (Eva Gabor) is appalled by her husband's plans, as is Mr. Douglas' imperious mother (Eleanor Audley). Nothing, however, will dissuade Oliver from fulfilling his lifelong dream -- until he gets a good look at the dilapidated farm that he has purchased! This is the only Green Acres episode not directed by Richard L. Bare. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Superman (George Reeves) rescues Corky, a sweet, playful dog, from the well into which he's fallen, and returns the dog to his owner, Joyce (Dona Drake). He later discovers that the dog has bonded with him and is seeking him out -- the problem is that Corky recognizes him in his Clark Kent guise and is just as gregarious in greeting him at those times, in his office at the Daily Planet. Joyce's husband Hank (Ben Welden), a small-time hood with big-time ambition, figures this out, and plans to use the dog to uncover Superman's secret identity, and blackmail him into giving his bookmaking operation protection. ~ Bruce Eder, All Movie Guide
