It's a rare moment in TV history as the corny casts of three rural sitcoms unite for a Christmas extravaganza. The characters from "The Beverly Hillbillies," "Green Acres" and "Petticoat Junction" gather for a wild romp. Banker Drysdale plays Scrooge and gets the Dickens in a dream sequence. Farmhand Eb courts bucolic beauty Elly May. Granny schemes to snag Sam Drucker, the general store keeper -- and golddigger Uncle Joe contemplates money-motivated matrimoney to the elderly hillbilly. Fun for the whole family, this show was "lost" after its first run in 1968 and only uncovered a few years ago. Well worth discovering!
