Happy New Year everyone. The age thing again, huh?
Remember, they casted us in a movie not a series. The part of Ben was originally two characters and in real life, I am closer to Judy's age and Mary and David are the same age so the original order was John Boy, Jason, Mary Ellen, Ben, Erin, Jim Bob, Elizabeth. Around the fourth year of the series, Ben and Erin switched. I talked with Grandma Ellen and she told me to stay young as long as possible so I encouraged the change.
Hope this explains the discrepancies.
Eric

I have never noticed the switch in the kids birth order. I did notice that Blue from season 2 and 3 is not the same mule in later seasons

I am not sure but the animals may have all come from the Val-Imm Farm located near Portland, Oregon.
That was the location where the dog on Petticoat Junction came from as well as the animals on Green
Acres.

She don't look like her age. When we go out somewhere's like a store or a restaurant. Lot of people think, she's my older sister. She's actually my mom. |
