Expect Molly Turgiss to do these 5 things when she visits Hooterville

'The Ballad of Molly Turgiss' continues to live on in Hooterville!

There's a pretty well-known spooky legend that lives on in the small, quiet town of Hooterville. The "you know who" of the town is the one and only Molly Turgiss. (Cue something breaking.) 

Ran out of Hooterville years ago because of her looks, her spirit is brought back to life when Oliver Douglas hears of the legend and decides to ask some questions in "The Ballad of Molly Turgiss". Those inquiries aren't exactly well received from locals, including from Turgiss herself!

Here is what "you know who" might do when she visits Hooterville, whether she can be seen or not! 

Watch Green Acres on MeTV!

Weeknights at 8:30 PM

*available in most MeTV markets

1. She will force others to reject you

She isn't called "you know who" in Hooterville for nothing, and you'll see why in this list! Turgiss is such a touchy subject in Hooterville, that signs are posted in Sam Drucker's shop. It is literally a written rule in the town that nobody speak of her, as the consequences can be costly! Read on to see why Drucker has to have this sign in his shop.

2. She breaks things

It's Molly's go-to when she hears her name slip out of anyone's mouth in Hooterville! Turgiss clearly doesn't like the people of Hooterville, thus anytime someone utters her infamous name, something gets broken. From barrels of pickles to lamps and anything in between, nothing is safe when Molly is in town.

3. She'll likely steal a car

Now Oliver has really done it. His questions about Turgiss have cost Mr. Haney his truck! Now he has to walk all the way to Pixley! Apparently Molly likes to steal the car and park it right in front of a fire hydrant. If there's any good news about this grand theft auto, it's that Oliver seems to have the slightest belief that something supernatural is going on in Hooterville.

4. She'll eventually show up

Should Molly's name continue to be used over and over again, there's a solid chance she'll make her actual presence felt with an appearance or two! It's safe to say this one got to Oliver, as he lets out a solid scream and immediately calls for Lisa! Oliver just won't take the hint! Luckily, Lisa gives Molly some much needed TLC later in the episode.

5. She hits people

If breaking, stealing and spooking doesn't get people to stop saying her name, Turgiss turns it up a notch with a slap or bump! Anybody from Hooterville that's in denial of Molly's scary abilities over and over again will eventually get hit. Whether it's a slap that knocks off a hat or a bump to the backside, any Hooterville resident better learn to keep her name out of any conversation! Just ask Oliver, who continued to use her name in conversation and in song. Based on this altercation, you'd think he would simply stop saying her name. In his defense, there was a truce in place! But can anybody really trust "you know who?"

Correction:

Mayor Pike boarded a Greyhound
Bus because he was moving to
Raleigh NC and on another
Greyhound bus there was
Roy Stoner who was arriving in
Mayberry on the Greyhound bus
to be the NEW MAYOR of Mayberry replacing Mayor Pike.
The reason that ED SAWYER and
LUCY MATHEWS VANISHED INTO

Forwarding Address is because
Ed Sawyer and Lucy Mathews

EXPRESS BUS with ONE WAY
Bus Tickles ONLY and the BUS 🚌 was traveling to GHOST VALLEY and the bus was being
driven by Rod SERLING.
Ghost Valley is 10 miles away from THE SITCOM ZONE!!

Never heard of it, but it sounds interesting. Have you tried Spotify or YouTube Music?

I have a question about Bewitched and I Dream Of Jeanne.
What is the DIFFERENCE in the powers of Genies and Witches?
It seems like Samantha on Bewitched
And Jeanne on I Dream Of Jeanne
Had IDENTICAL POWERS !!!!!!!!!!
In terms of Hollywood, a lot of liberties were taken. But a Genie served a master and lived hundreds of years ago, and I believe had to do with Arabian legends or folklore.

Witches are generic and conjure up spells and black magic and certainly do not answer to anyone. Samantha was a benevolent witch, whereas her mother (I believe) had ill-intentions.

Powers are powers, i.e., magical versus reality, and serve Hollywood well for handling all different kinds of plots. It's all about who likes which characters more than others; in the eye of the beholder!

Watch I Dream of Jeannie more closely and you'll see how devoted
