For Immediate Release GREEN ACRES: THE COMPLETE SERIES COMES TO DVD FOR THE FIRST TIME ON OCTOBER 17, 2017 FROM SHOUT! FACTORY Los Angeles, CA (August 23, 2017) - Green Acres is the place to be! Green Acres: The Complete Series comes to DVD in a 24-disc set from Shout! Factory for the first time on October 17, 2017. Revisit your favorite friends from Hooterville in 170 episodes of farm-to-table homespun hilarity together on DVD for the first time! Oliver Douglas (Academy Award nominee Eddie Albert) is a well-read lawyer who has had enough of the hustle and bustle of New York, so he pulls up stakes to settle down in a more pastoral setting...much to the dismay of his glamorous wife Lisa (Eva Gabor, The Rescuers), who's more accustomed to life in The Big Apple than on a small farm. Having said "goodbye, city life," the Douglases must contend with their new surroundings: a bucolic world of slapstick silliness...and don't get us started on one of television's most recognizable theme songs! A popular TV favorite throughout its six-season run from 1965 to 1971, Green Acres brings a comical touch of class to America's favorite country comedy. Join transplanted New Yorkers, Oliver Wendell Douglas and his Park Avenue wife Lisa, as they make a life-changing excursion to rural Hooterville, where they encounter the wackiest collection of neighbors this side of Arnold the Pig!
