Green Acres Barn Location | Lost location FOUND!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 июл 2024
- The lost location of the Green Acres barn, the barn seen in the opening credits to Green Acres has been found. The barn was demolished decades ago, and all that was known was that it was filmed somewhere in Thousand Oaks, CA in 1965. In this video we go through the research and sleuthing to find this lost location of TV's golden age. I also go to two more Green Acres locations in Hollywood and Los Angeles.

Nobody…NOBODY would know the location of this barn if it weren’t for you and your inquisitiveness and investigative skills. I have often wondered about that house and the barn since I was a kid. A big THANK YOU!
I would be that the owners of the several houses around that intersection have no idea of their property's role in historic television.
@@k.r.baylor8825 You’re right, I’m sure they have no clue about the barn. But I do suspect maybe the current occupants of the house have been told about their house being shown on hundreds of millions of TV sets.
I had the honor to meet the actor that played Mr Haney in person meetings. He was a very sweet guy and loved telling stories. He had everyone laughing. This was in the mid 80's.
@@anitraduke2265 Thanks for sharing your experience.
@@EmilyTienne You're welcome. I have a picture of the cast that he signed but I'm having some trouble finding it. Hope to find it, somewhere.
It’s quite sad to see historical places like the big ranch, now completely wiped out and gone. I really hate mass development.
I think I know how you feel but it's all done in the name of progress
@@UTA_xx5kx No dude. Progress is knowing when to leave well enough alone.
What was there before the ranch? And before that? Where do you live, work, shop, what roads do you drive on, etc, and what used to be there before it was "completely wiped out and gone"? And before that? What we perceive, remember, or otherwise become aware of is just the blink of an eye in time. It's no more significant than anybody or anything that came before just because we become aware of it.
I know exactly where this is… I ride my bike here and have a lot of businesses I visit there every week. My pharmacy, my doctor, my grocery store…
Its proably going to go the other way soon. The birthrate dropped to replacement in 2000 and less than after that so some areas should have too many houses in 20 years or so (hopefully they will not turn out like Detroit).
Im 63 years old and this show still cracks me up
It's on "ME TV" . I have a farm that's 139 years old and it has alot of memories.
The farmhouse is still standing up .
Oh gosh I’m the same age. Me too. It just cracks me up 😂. Especially the character Hank Kimble.
I just turned 67, and still enjoy "Green Acres". Watching it was a part of my childhood in the 1960s. 😊
Especially when Mr Haney shows up and says Mr Douglas this is your lucky day. When Mr Haney shows up there was no such thing as a lucky day unless he drove up says hello and leave immediately.
I, too, was born under the 49 star flag.
Westlake native here. Holy cow, you did it! You really found it! It’s in a part of town they call North Ranch, and now we can really see why! Well done sir!
Thank you! I knew if I kept looking at old aerial photos I had to find it somewhere! I enjoy Westlake, it was my first time there. Cool city 👍🏻
Hey, Westlake Native!! You probably know that the Ambush scene from 1967.Bonnie and Clyde was filmed there as well!!
Wasn't Little house On the Prairie filmed close to that area?
@@rt3593Little House was filmed on the Big Sky Movie Ranch in Simi Valley at the end of Tapo Cyn.
MASH was filmed just south of Westlake/Agoura, near Malibu Lake. It's part of the national park now. One year a wildfire burned through the set and they worked it into the script.
@jimc9175 thanks for your answer! Seems to be a busy place for tv and movies. But lemme ask....how far was the LHOTP area....the land and terrain are all identical.
@@rt3593 know that would be interesting to know the answer to your comment.
Little house on the Prairie another show I watched. I read all the Laura Engle's Books.
I names my daughter after "Laura" Engle". Daughter name Laura !!!
Name my son after Ryan ONiell ( aka paper moon ) Son name is "Ryan"
Young people taking interest in shows of my youth is incredible!
Make that two of us @robertbraxton2168
How many folks remember the episode. When Oliver asked Liesa what was behind a door they had never noticed in the hallway? And they discovered their house had a full basement. Dug by Mr. Haneys father for his still operation they discovered down there. Then the staircase caved in.
Trapped together, such a wonderful dialog of rediscovery of their love for one another thinking this was it, for most of the sequence. Eva Gabor, was so perfect for her roll in this. Their story of how they first meet each other during the war. And fell hopelessly in love.
No one could find them. But it was Arnold, the Ziffels pig! That saved the day. Speaking clearly by acting out with charades in the general store alerting everyone and showing the way to a rescue. Lassie the pig!
And poor Mr Kimball was still using a plunger in the kitchen sink drain trying to save them after hearing them talking from the drain pipe.
Americana drama... At it's finest!! One of my favorite episodes. That house had a basement!! Hope I didn't spoil it for anyone. Green Acres we are there !!
@@snapcutter9596I remember it. Green Acres is the place to be.
The action he saw in WW2 was some of the most deadly in history. He was a true American hero. Great show. What a fantastic job you did for all Green Acres fans!
That’s so amazing! I bet being in a surreal comedy was good therapy for him after all that he experienced in the war?
@@StanleyFoss Eddie actually was in the heat of battle and put himself in even more harms way to save/rescue 4 or 5 fellow soldiers that were either wounded or stuck in no man's land
Eddie was a coxswain ferrying fuel and ammo at Tarawa on a landing craft, there were 60 marines under fire in neck deep water, Eddie risked his life going in and rescuing all of them, he was decorated for his actions, gives me even more respect for a man I already admired
Many of our favorite movie and TV actors of the 1950s through 1970s were unsung war heroes. 😎👍
@@user-po7ch2vc3nWho is Eddie?
You did a GREAT job in research. I met Eddie Albert when I was a young lad by accident at a store and he stopped and took a photo with me..He was a kind man. he said he LOVED being on Green Acres. He had a great time.
That is so cool! Thanks for sharing that.
Well of COURSE he "loved" being on the show.. he became a multi-millionaire many times over because of it LOL!!!
Eddie Albert setting an interview
Eddie Albert only did one interview about his war record so nobody knew what he did in the war he was a damn good man he was a funny show too thanks for looking at that that was very interesting
How did he feel about those classic Beltone hearing aid infomercials throughout the '80s?
I met Tom Lester who played Eb on Green Acres many years ago. Very nice man. My favorite scenes involved Eddie Albert going into his patriotic rants about the virtues of country life and the goodness of America with the fife music suddenly playing around him.
So cool you got to meet Eb! Such a shame that the main cast are all gone now.
My brother and I used to perk up our ears and suddenly exclaim, "Ope! Here comes the fife and drums"
And then wait a couple of seconds for them to kick in.
Wow! That was 1985-86....Nick at Night...The Monkees, Dobie Gillis, Green Acres,...
And on Saturday nights after all that @ 11pm it was "The Hot Seat" w/Wally George, (look it up 🤠)...
...went well with late night Taco Bell.
I literally was born and raised about 7 miles from where that barn was. When I grew up you could find a movie set somewhere around town during the week back then in the 60's. It was Conejo Valley back then. God, I feel old!
Oh cool, you got to experience some of the old Conejo valley before all the expansion. Times change fast!
Great detective work. Mannix wood be proud. Might want to check the code dept of that era and see if any. Permits were pulled for demo and the laying of utilities water sewer. Etc plus when homes were built look early. 70s now go find mannixs detective agency..good job
DUDE, you’re one helluva investigator, My father and I loved GREEN ACRES, Thank you
Thank you! It was a lot of fun researching this one :)
As the program progressed, I think Oliver Douglas was the only sane person left in the community. Like when every farmer, hired hand & business person in Hooterville was obsessed with and crying about a TV soap opera called Tomorrow Will Be Brighter and Arnold The Pig was going Hollywood, complete with dark glasses to hide his identity from his mobs of fans.
Thank you for sharing the location of the barn. Eddie Albert was a good friend of mine. I would often visit him at his home in Pacific Palisades.
Do you remember the fictional town Pixley? I'm sure you are aware of the little town Pixley in central California. The water Tower scene on Green Acres still stands in that little town. A gentleman who lives there told me this just yesterday. I live a few miles away from Pixley.
Oh that’s so cool that you were friends with Eddie Albert! Yes, I’ve been meaning to check out Pixley. One of these days I’ll get over there 👍🏻
Wasn’t Pixley in Petticoat Junction?
@@davidlium9338 I think it was part of the sprawling Pixley-Hooterville-Bugtussle metroplex.
That's really interesting to know !!!
I had enter Eddie Albert’s home in PP and didn’t realize it was him. Hearing his voice from a distance I took a second look. I was there when his wife was ill.
Great research! I live in Alabama and I’ve visited the grave of Mr. Heany (Pat Buttram) a couple of times. His grave is near Haleyville, AL in the little church cemetery where his dad pastored.
Oh that would be cool to visit.
Hello, I live in Bessemer. When I was in the Marines out in California I visited Holly Wood some. Wish now I would have took the time and visited more places. I have two children that where born out there. Me and My now ex wife moved back to Alabama in 93. I them became a police officer. I'm retired now.
Hayleyville AL? That's cool. My father was born there. Now I have a connection! Thanks.
I loved Green Acres as a kid, and Mr. Haney was my favorite character. Pat Buttram played him BRILLIANTLY! I've always tried to imitate his hilariously distinctive cracking voice, but I've never been able to do it.
I actually didn't realize that the actor who played Mr. Heany was from Alabama
That house where the barn was should put a sign out front telling about it.
I met a few of the neighbors, they were really nice. I told them about the barn location, they thought it was interesting but didn’t seem as into it as I was haha
HI STAN ,,I GUESS THEY DONT WANT PEOPLE COMING OVER TO THERE LAND DAY AND NIGHT???@@StanleyFoss
@@ronaldmiller2740 Streets are public.
GA was a long time ago. People don’t know or appreciate history like they should. Pity.
I was a little kid in the sixties and green acres was one of my favorite programs, that and It's about time, does anybody else remember it's about time? The trilogy was, green acres petticoat junction and the Beverly Hillbillies which all centered around Hooterville, that pilot episode of the Beverly Hillbillies where Jed finds out that he has Texas tea on his land is great.
You have really out done yourself in researching for this video. The fact that you found the location of the barn is simply amazing. You have a wonderful attention to detail.
I get a little obsessed 😂
@@StanleyFoss And we thank you for your obsession.
Grew up in T.O. Moved there in 1959 and remember all the ranches well. Nice flashback.
I wish I could have seen all the open land and ranches back then!
I wish you could have too. It was an awesome place to grow up! On the bright side tho, you're still young :)@@StanleyFoss
It looks like such a pretty area. I must drive up there from LA next time I go there (from Vancouver Canada).
I am a native of Thousand Oaks born in 1956. I grew up in "Old Town" Thousand Oaks. My Dad and I worked for American Hawaiian Land Company. I have dozens of photos and 8mm movies from the early days. I knew Ed Lawrence. Now for the pearl... My Uncle was the Ranch Foreman and overseer of the Albertson Ranch. He is in the barn photos. I played in that barn and have 1966 color photos. My Uncle and Cousin were both real cowboys and that was my Uncles cattle all of which were used by Hollywood for all the westerns. The big Scottish Highlanders seen on Gunsmoke and Dirty Sally were my Uncles bulls. The little building seen to the right of the barn was actually a mobile home my Uncle lived in temporarily until they relocated to Red Bluff, CA.
The Barn and Stable area was called Glenmore Stables. Owned by my Uncle and his second wife. His name was Jack Braden and his wife Sandy (still alive) expanded their business in Oregon.
Much of that area burned down in 1970 in what was one of the worst brush fire seasons in modern history.
We watched them film so many movies it would take me pages to write it all down. Elvis' movie "Roustabout" was filmed on the Alberston Ranch right down the lane from the ranch house that my Uncle Jack lived in on the south side of the ranch. You can see his house in that large Westlake Village overlook by Ed Lawrence. My family has an original 16x20 of that same photo that was given to my Dad in the early 70's.
Thousand Oaks was magical in the 50's-60's. The rapid growth beginning in 1966 destroyed an otherwise country Shangri-la. My Great Grandpa would be shocked by how much the area changed since he arrived here in 1904.
Wow! This is fascinating. Thanks so much for sharing your history. It was such a great place to grow up. I remember playing on an old ranch with a barn which is now in the Oakbrook area. The 23 freeway took over it all. There were grain carts and tracks still there. @@realnikonlover6207
This stuff fascinates me.....I love THEN and NOW photos.
I used Historic Aerials and figured out the barn was located at 34.19310° N, 118.81475° W which puts it in the front yard of the house on the southeast corner of Bluebell Place and Fairmount.
That would be 1610 Bluebell Place, Westlake Village, CA 91362. It's a $3.049 million house, built in 1983, 4 bd, 4.5 ba, 5,252 sq ft. And a pool. It's a nice place, too, all found on Zillow and not currently for sale. If you're the lucky owner, a family trust member of the late Mr. Buccola, expect a flood of QSL-like cards coming your way, seeking verification of something completely out of the blue.
But from all of this readers can deduce that the barn was probably torn down in the early 1980s when the land developer was prepping the land for subdivision construction.
I did the same research. I think yours only few yards off than mine. Good work!
@@k.r.baylor8825 I wonder how many people was”QSL” means? 73’s
HistoricAerials has a 1967 image of the barn location. The Green Acres words do not appear visible. It is a low resolution photo.
I just did the same thing - used Historic Aerials.
I have always wondered what happened to those iconic Green Acres places. So I greatly appreciate all the time,research and hard work that you put into this video.
Pretty special talent should be a private investigator, Excellent work !
Back when sitcoms were fun and enjoyable. Thank you for sharing
Wow, I grew up with that show and appreciate all the effort you put into all of this great show history.
Thanks so much! Glad you liked it
Absolute amazing video! You put lots of work and effort into putting all of this together! Green Acres was my absolute favorite television show. I remember when it first debuted, it was the first season for color broadcasting on CBS. I’m sure most of the original sets and props have been destroyed long ago since they occupied sound stages. A lot of the “exterior” shots were actually miniatures. Lots of clever camera work in those days. Thanks for a wonderful job and look forward to some more of your content!
Oh interesting, I did find an article about the miniatures and that Max Thornton also painted the miniature homes but I wasn’t quite sure where they were used. Interesting insights.
Thanks for the kind words!
@@StanleyFoss Thanks for your response! Not to send you on a wild goose chase but I hear that the train is still in existence. It would be interesting to see if Drucker’s store is still standing.
What an amazing find. I used to watch Green Acres every week.😊
Thanks to MeTV, I watch an episode each weekday at 8:30pm. Loved the show as a child and still love it to this day. Thanks for this video, you've done a ton of work bringing it to us.
I’ll have to look for it on MeTV 👍🏻
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Thank you so much for this stroll down memory lane. You are quite the detective and I love your positive vibes! Great job..Peter Falk would be proud. 😃
Thanks so much! Glad you found it enjoyable
Thank you for this amazing video. I really enjoyed it. It's pretty incredible how you were able to piece all of the information together to find the location.
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Very interesting and time consuming investigation to locate this barn. I loved watching reruns of Green Acres as a child and to find the location of the barn was in Southern CA was unexpected. Side note that it is sad the Albertson Ranch with the buildings, cattle and cowboys is gone for another McMansion neighborhood. It was so open and beautiful.
This was so interesting! I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. You did an excellent job!
Thank you so much! 🙏🏻☺️
LOVE THIS!! You've answered a long lost mystery! Great job!
Thank you! … now I gotta find that other white house in the intro 😅
I shared it to Facebook and with my brother that lives in 1000 Oaks. He loved it too and subscribed to your channel!
@@StanleyFoss
@StanleyFoss That would be cool! There was also a 2-story white house that was in the opening credits too, I'm pretty sure. I remember it was in an episode when Oliver and Lisa were thinking of buying another place (early on before they renovated). Oh goodness, that made me think of the builders on that show - the brother and sister and she had a guy's name, Ralph, and she was sweet on Hank Kimball!
Great work! One of my favorite shows of all time (I'm 67 now). Thanks so much for persevering and sharing your research!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Oh my goodness! I loved this show! I was born in 1968 and grew up watching this show. Honestly this video makes me sad. I miss the land and rolling hills and seeing people working the land. To see all these houses and developments constructed in such a short period of time makes me truly sad. What will the US look like in another 30 or 40 years???? But, you’ve clearly done extensive research. Great job.
Yeah in 40 more years who knows what it will look like?? I miss the look of the open land also! Thanks for watching!
I live in an area that was all orange groves in the 1960s, and all single family homes by the 1980s. Now there is no land left for more single-family homes, but the City Council still wants more income, so they are putting up 4 and 6 story featureless "people storage" buildings with no parking, then turning all the surrounding roads into 1.5 lane wide paths with diagonal parking on both sides to make up for the lack of parking the developers would have had to pay for.
They can get over 200 families in two acres now. With "local businesses" consisting of one smoke shop/weed parlor and a hair dressing place. But no place to buy food. What California is going to look like in 40 years is 400 square miles of the Chicago Projects.
You did a fantastic job on figuring out the location of that barn.
Well done.
My son, who is 15, and I watch Gunsmoke every night together. Not long ago he remarked that “I bet all that land is covered with houses and stuff now…”. Progress isn’t always progress.
I would love to see some of the old Gunsmoke, Adam 12, Dragnet, and Perry Mason filming locations. I think Perry was filmed at Revue studios?
The LA area seemed like such a cool place to us East Coasters during the 50’s and 60’s.
I was just watching Adam 12 the other day, lots of locations to re-examine in each episode!
@@StanleyFossI remember they used to film combat scenes for some 1960s combat TV show (maybe Combat? I forget now) just down the street from where I lived every couple of weeks. That was in an old abandoned winery in what used to be Cucamonga.
Just read that Gunsmoke got Gilligan's Island cancelled. GI only ran for 3 yrs.
That's one TV show my mom would watch every evening . Most of my family all love to watch
western movies anything that's Old. I watch alot of everything .
Green Acres is a TV show , I watch daily , even now , this generation , year 2024 .
On "ME" TV and you can watch them on RUclips.
We watch really old western movies in the 1940's and 50's .
Thank you. "Green Acres" is one of my childhood memories of watching TV before it became a horrid wasteland. I still it on PlutoTV. Good video, sir!
That's flat out amazing that you figured out the location of that barn. Nice work!
Side note-In my misspent youth in the 80s, we got on the roof of an abandoned farm house and peeled off shingles til it read 'Green Acres'. Wrong? Probably. Hilarious? Oh, yeah.
Haha, that’s a great memory!
Cool!
I'm so happy this showed up in my YT recs. I was born in 1963 so I grew up with Green Acres and the other shows mentioned produced at that studio. I have fond memories of watching those shows back in what were simpler times.
“Green Acres” was one of my favorites as a child back in the 60’s. Just a very funny show with great talented actors. Thank you for your hard work doing all of the research! You did a fantastic job!
That was awesome. The research you did was amazing. We all enjoyed watching that so much!! I want to watch green acres now!!!
Thanks! It was a lot of fun research 👍🏻
I love this kind of stuff. I’m a rail fan and seeing the photos of the studio set of the Cannonball was great. Been looking for that for a long time. Thanks for your research.
I love that picture also!
Amazing job! One of the best shows ever on tv. You made my day! Thank u ❤
Just discovered your channel and the videos on Green Acres. Awesome job! I grew up watching The Beverly Hillbillies, Petticoat Junction and Green Acres when they were initially broadcast. It's great to be able to see the locations that bring back such warm childhood memories. Thank you! Can't wait to see what you do next.
Hi, thank you! Glad you discovered my channel. I’ve done videos on older shows and movies and some newer shows/movies. I should have a new video up soon, after I get around some copywriter issues lol. 😅
This is top-rate investigative work. Would have been nice for the developer to have saved the barn as a Hollywood memorial. Green Acres is still one of my fav shows. Thanks for doing this. Now everyone will always know where the iconic Green Acres Barn stood.
LOL! Love it! My late Husband and I grew up on this show and loved watching it! He always wisecracked that he had seen these places in rural Missouri when we drove out to visit my Brother!
I really appreciate the time and research that you put into this. All of the shows that you mentioned were a really big part of my childhood, thanks so much!
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Thank you! You do some great content. Keep up the great work!
Thanks more videos on the way!
Wow! This is great!! I have SO many thoughts! I live in Westlake now and never knew any of this! I grew up watching re-runs of Green Acres (I was born in Fall of '65) where I lived in Agoura! AND my Dad was in the business (property master - did not work on this but worked on many others including a couple Elvis Presley movies). And, lastly, there is a street here in Westlake called "Russell Ranch Road!"
Oh that is so cool that your dad worked on some films! Yeah so much interesting history all over that area. Westlake was a great place to visit!
Do you have any Elvis stuff,justmejk?
That was so cool. Green Acres was such a great show. Daddy likes.
Glad you found it!
This video made me feel good inside, and it took me back to my childhood! Huge kudos to you for sleuthing around and locating where the old barn was located. Impressive work, my man!
Green Acres was one of my favorite TV shows as a kid back in the 60s. I watched every episode. I loved all of the characters - but Pat Buttram's colorful Mr. Haney has to be my favorite... always trying to sell Oliver some outlandishly overpriced piece of junk!. And the telephone at the top of the pole outside was PURE GOLD!
I was impressed when I looked up Eddie Albert a few years ago. Mr. Albert's WWII service record as others in Hollywood at that time, showed they loved their country. A lot in Hollywood don't seem to be grateful for it and it is a shame.
That generation really got involved! They put their life on the line.
Most actors today have no patriotism.
Awesome vid.
I love this kind of historical sleuthing.
Great detective work! That land was almost unrecognizable from 58 years ago. It appears from county land records that the barn was probably torn down in the early 1980s (or even late 1970s), when the house lots were being prepared. The house on the barn site was built in 1983, meaning construction was in the 1981-82 era.
From 2023 aerial photos, there are no large trees around the houses on Bluebell Place, meaning the three identifying trees around the barn were unfortunately cut down, but about 150 feet south on adjoining property back yards there is a very large tree bracketed by two pools. It could be a survivor of that time.
Great info! Thanks for that. Also good to know that I don’t have to go back and look for those trees 👍🏻
This is awesome, Green Acres is and was one of my favorite shows, growing up! Thank you!
So Green Acres eventually became the opposite of everything the TV show was based on .... moving far away from the luxury of urban life
Nicely done. As an original fan of Green Acres and all the other shows from the 60s, I really enjoyed this.
Outstanding research ! It's bitter sweet watching info like this. From a time more simple and care free, to a time a bit more complicated. Well done sir ! Keep them coming. 👍😊
Wow. You were tenacious in your research. I grew up with this show, and really enjoyed every minute of this video. Thank you, sir.
Glad you enjoyed it!
California is so beautiful. It is such a shame that the politics and policies of the state are destroying it.
So true!!
Once the land of milk and honey now the land of fruit and nuts.
How sad
@@chipcook6646 And Bigots.
@@chipcook6646😂😂😂
Great analysis. The US army performed oblique Ortho photos of the entire West Coast between 1935-1937 and again in the 1940's or 1950's. Those photos pop up from time to time either through USGS, Army Corps of Engineers, university's archives, historical society or public library archives. These aerial photos are invaluable at times.
Good to know, I’ll have to utilize those sites for future videos. 👍🏻
Just came across your channel. Excellent presentation of the history and location of the Green Acres barn and studios. It’s obvious you have a passion for Hollywood history combined with your talent for research, script writing, storytelling and video. Keep up the great work and cataloging such history.
Thanks so much! Yeah, I love all this old Hollywood history and old pop culture relics. :)
I love comparing old and new aerial maps! You did a lot of work to research and put all this together! Well done!
Great video. I’m 69 now and remember all those great shows. Green Acres was a great, quirky, silly, and funny show. It took a lot of work and time to find all those locations, thanks👏
AMAZING video. Many thanks for all the time and research put in to making this. Extremely fascinating 👍👍👍
Wow you've done so much research ! Thank you . I loved that show and still watch it in reruns !
Glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing! I grew up about 9 miles from that barn. There was NOTHING out there in up until about 1973 when they widened the Ventura Freeway. THOUSANDS of Oak trees were there. There was also a horrible zoo called JUNGLE LAND. We hunted rabbits at the Conejo (rabbit) grade. Thanks for this video!!!!!
I’ve seen some pictures of Jungleland, pretty amazing all the animals they had out there!
A 2nd Season episode of "The Fugitive" starring the great David Janssen was filmed at Jungleland in 1965. The place had already closed permanently by then and it was a real dump at that point.
Thanks Nick. People tell me that such a place did not exist. I must have been in 2nd grade when we visted!!! 1963ish@@nickgodalin6487
You did an outstanding job and research to find the Green Acers barn!! I truly enjoyed watching this video!! Thankyou!
Great sleuthing. I was enthralled. My jaw dropped when I saw the comparison between the 60s and now, in that beautiful valley. Urban sprawl indeed.
Absolutely amazing you were able to track down that Green Acres barn location. Great research and detective work.
Wow… your sleuthing abilities are beyond compare! I run Green Acres every Sunday Night on DVD, and the Information you’ve provided will let me watch it in a whole new light! Thank you!
Glad you liked it! You’ll never watch that intro the same again 😁
This was so much fun! My boss in Beverly Hills in the 1980s was friends with many older Hollywood stars including Eva Gabor. I met her several times and she was always so incredibly lovely. I was very saddened when she died suddenly in 1995.
Great memories! So cool you got to meet her a few times!
Glad to see you whippersnappers enjoying these favorites! Thanks for the video!
This is awesome thank you. It was always one of my favorite shows. It’s nice to know the barn was nearby.
Well done! You spent a lot of time and money locating these for us. Thank you. I hope your video goes viral!
True! Hotels, gas, food, but it was fun to do 😊
Holy cow! You are absolutely incredible! I can’t believe you found the location of the barn. I happen to live in Thousand Oaks, and I am amazed what you have shown. You’re right, it has changed quite a bit. I had to forward your video to my brother who is a green acres fan too. I even subscribed because you did such a good job.
Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed it. Oh and thanks for sharing it and the sub!!
Great video thank you. Still to this day love the show! Amazing dynamics between Eddie and Eva, I once read that he became very depressed when she passed, good friends in real life as well.
Grew up watching it, still watching it today with my wife and oldest daughter. Thanks for sharing.
This is some awesome research and video overlay work. Amazing sleuth work to find that location along with some great drone footage of the current location. This video is great!
Thank so much! It was fun to piece together :)
Wow! Impressive work, Detective! Thank you. Very interesting!
Thank you so much! I always wondered about the barn location. Thoroughly enjoyed the video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for the very interesting and informative videos! You rock, my friend! Green Acres was always one of my favorite shows and I still watch it most week nights on MeTV. 😎✌️
EPIC!!!!
Was just up there last week!!
I love history like this. Thanks for the hard work.
Love the overview from above and the amount of details, very proffesional. :) Always such great editing in your videos, too.
Much appreciated! Thanks!
Great work bringing the Green Acres Barn back to life again…
Thank you for all your research I've wondered where that Barn was for a long time, now that you have given me street names I was able to find it on a historical aerial that gives modern Road overlays.
Well done, finding the barn location had to have taken a lot of time. Thanks for sharing.
Yes it was 😅, thanks
awesome video. This has to be the only documentation of this location. Thanks for documenting it. I bet the people living there had no idea of this.
My dad was a huge fan of Green Acres, and his fondness for the show rubbed off on me. Ive got the entire DVD collection. Your videos on Green Acres have been a delightful walk down memory lane! Thanks, Stanley!
Also, you deserve a lot more subscribers then you have!
Thank you! Glad you found these videos!
Thanks! Hopefully 100k other people will feel that way! Lol
Thank you for your hard work finding the barn. This was one of my favorite shows as a child.
This was a puzzle vlog putting together. Watched a many Green Acres and enjoyed this vlog as much as the show. An import time capsule this captures. Cheers!
Thanks so much! Glad you had fun!
