Green Acres is a bit before its time in modern TV, so it holds up well over time.
It's a comedy about a lawyer with an upscale wife who decides he wants to be a farmer.
It doesn't exactly go over the "fourth wall", but it climbs to the top of the fourth wall. Much of the comedy involves speaking about the mood music or the music score that is playing during the show.
Actor Eddie Albert is the main straight man, although he farms in a suit and tie. Yeah, that's the straight man. Frank Cady as a store clerk, and sometimes Bea Benaderet as the local hotel keeper are about the only other "straight men/women" on the show. The others are "hoots" in Hooterville.
The comedy runs from slapstick to sometimes a bit dry, so there is something for everyone.
