Green Acres clips - Lisa Cooking 05 Hot Water Soup

[@keldonmcfarland2969]

Lisa and Eb out smart Mr Douglas at every turn!

[@carloscarpinteyro332]

Tom Lester whose character was Eb Dawson in this TV series got the part with no previous acting experience, after over 500 other actors with experience, tried out for the part, and did not get it! I personally met Alvy Moore, in 1994, whose character was Hank Kimble in the TV show. I met him just 3 years before he died in 1997. He was a very fine gentleman.

Tom Lester died on April 20, 2020. He was the last surviving regular cast member.

[@carloscarpinteyro332]

@@ccbsnyc Yep, you are right about that. He was good friends with Eddie Albert (Mr. Douglas.) In the late 1970's I would do work in Eddie Albert's back yard. I never once met him, or saw him, but he did have a huge greenhouse, growing plants, so I guess that was the real farmer in him!

Being raised on a farm Tom Lester was the only audition who had experience of milking a cow.

The way that Lisa described her misunderstanding about how chicken noodle soup is made could be considered the ultimate dad joke today. Lol.

[@brittanybrown484]

Oh, boy!!!! Hot water soup!!!

[@rotunda57]

And we'll never hear Tom Lester say that again. RIP Tom. 4/20/2020

@ pour water into the pot and put on the stove to boil to make it hot

[@brittanybrown484]

What is that?!! Hot water soup. Hot water soup?

[@robjohnson8861]

Her clothes were awesome.

Hungarian! To say “Hello” to the cook, he may be my mother I love Eva Gabor

[@the4000class]

Caleb Brown what season are the last 2 clips from?

[@calebbrown551]

the4000class if I remember correctly the last clip with the champagne is from season 2 and I have no idea what season the shpagehtti is from, but my guess is that it’s a later season

[@msr1116]

Interestingly, while Eva was Hungarian she pronounced some words with a clear and obvious German accent--because--she sounded like all my older relatives who spoke English the same way.

[@MichaelCarreon-f7x]

Lisa is so flighty!

[@robjohnson8861]

who recognizes the lake? Andy Griffith, Big Valley, Six Million Dollar Man are 3 I remember.

[@JG40061]

There was also one episode of The Original Series of Star Trek that used that lake as a back drop. The Paradise Syndrome , Original air date 10-4-68

[@jonnaking3054]

I always wondered what Lisa ate....did she ear her own cooking?

[@randymillhouse791]

Sometime I will NEVER be able to explain how ANYTHING works.

[@msr1116]

When "Alivah" was a NYC atty and they lived in the penthouse Lisa must have had a personal chef. Didn't Swiss finishing schools teach young women to cook some basic but sophisticated dishes for their future roles as hostesses? It was more than just table settings and manners and small talk skills.

[@RjBenjamin353]

It was a tv show. It wasn’t real.

[@robsemail]

I never heard her say she had a chef, but more than once Lisa mentions that when they lived in New York, she didn’t have to cook.

[@msr1116]

@@robsemail ....unless they ate out all the time. Lisa was totally and hilariously incompetent in the kitchen, but even the most pampered young European women of her age group knew something about basic culinary matters.

[@wesmcgee1648]

Couple of drops of soy sauce and man you gotta hearty meal.

[@DanetteSWhite]

LOL poor Lisa

[@Mr.SLovesTheSacredHeartofJesus]

Funny... But boy, wasn't Tom Lester cute!

[@brittanybrown484]

Lisa doesn't know how to cook spaghetti cause she cooks it too long
