Ep 13. An Old Fashioned Christmas

Oliver and Lisa Douglas are getting ready to celebrate their first Christmas in the small town of Hooterville. As they prepare for the holiday season, they realize that the residents of Hooterville celebrate Christmas in a very different way than they do in New York City.

While Oliver wants to have a traditional Christmas with a tree, a turkey dinner, and gifts, the people of Hooterville have other plans. They believe that Christmas should be celebrated with an old-fashioned barn dance, complete with fiddlers, square dancing, and homemade cider.

Despite their initial reluctance, Oliver and Lisa eventually embrace the idea of an old-fashioned Christmas and set out to make it happen with the help of their friends in Hooterville.

As they prepare for the barn dance, they encounter a number of obstacles and setbacks. Firstly Lisa accidentally breaks the family heirloom, but they resolve the issue with quick thinking and some creativity. Oliver finds it difficult to muster the spirit of the holiday considering all the mishaps, but with Lisa's encouragement, he eventually comes around.

In the end, the barn dance is a great success and everyone has a wonderful time. Oliver and Lisa realize that Christmas is about celebrating with loved ones, and while the traditions may be different, the spirit of the holiday remains the same. They return to their farm feeling grateful for their new community and the unique experiences they have had in Hooterville.

Overall, "An Old Fashioned Christmas" is a heartwarming episode of Green Acres that highlights the importance of embracing new traditions and celebrating the holiday season with an open mind and a loving heart.
