3.0 out of 5 stars Theme Songs to Petticoat Junction, September 10, 2004

By

This review is from: Petticoat Junction (DVD)

I loved watching re-runs of this show in the late 70's when I was a kid. I remember the opening theme songs being a big part of what I liked about this show. There were 2 opening theme songs. The 2nd theme song replaced the 1st one when June Lockhart joined the cast. I have one of the other Petticoat Junctions DVD (No theme songs on that one Either) and though it has only 4 episodes verses the 7 on this DVD I like it just a bit better than this one. I guess it is because one of the episodes that is titled "The Beatnik" has Dennis Hopper playing the beatnik and I am a fan of most of his work. This DVD is a good buy especially if you are a big fan of the show. None of the shows are in color as advertised, and the picture quality isn't as clear and bright as it could be. But again, one of my biggest disappointments was the absence of the opening theme song. The theme song is replaced with very boring banjo music. If you like the opening theme songs as much as I do you can give them a listen. I had both of the opening theme songs to Petticoat Junction and thought I would share them with other fans of the show. They are both mp3's. I hope you enjoy listening to them.Petticoat Junction 1963-1970 (Opening Theme, 1) (...)

1.0 out of 5 stars WRONG MUSIC -RIPOFF!!, July 23, 2005

By 

Sitcom Junkie (la, ca) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Petticoat Junction (DVD)

I have seen these, and some vhs versions/all have ripped out the theme. Thats a misleading ripoff!(and not cheap for these items)

Especially for a show with such a noteable theme. Not only did they use this irritatingly cheezy, and irrelevant banjo jam, that doesn't even match. But your can hear where they spliced it over the original, and in some cases, you even hear reminents of the original underneath creating cacophony. SHAME, shame shame,on whoever decided to produce this.It ruins the whole show.

They probably paid some sap $20. to sit in his living room and jam to a cassette, and then retained the copyright. Meanwhile, Curt Massey's name remains on the credits. They also abused the Beverly Hillbillies expensive Dvd sets with this same track!!

I think in a perfect world, Curt Massey, and Flat & Scruggs shoult get ALL the revenues for this piracy.

3.0 out of 5 stars Better than nothing, but not much, August 30, 2004

OK, so this DVD packager got hold of what I guess were 7 public domain episodes of Petticoat Junction. But they discovered that the theme song is not public domain, so they put on some generic pickin' and grinnin' music where the theme song is supposed to be! That's pretty irritating but until a real box set is available, this will have to do.
