1. Only the black and white ones with Jethro's twin sister Jethrine ...
oh yeah, and the hippie episode.

4. You make a strong case.
Jethrine may be the best thing about the show, particularly since they found an actress who looked so much like Max Baer!

Perhaps the other best thing about the series was the capsule description I once saw in my Dish DVR: "Jethro goes to Marineland to join the Marines."

9. That Marineland was a good one ...
like all shows, as it progressed, the plot just fell apart. But I do enjoy them.

8. Jethro as a fortune teller.
woman: Excuse me, are you a Medium?
Jethro: No Ma'am, extra large.

3. It was funny for a few years.
Until towards the end, when Phil Silvers was frequently guest starring as "Honest John Shafer". And then it was obvious that the show should be cancelled, because it was extremely tired and unfunny at that point.

My favorite episodes was when Jethro decided to become a "double naught spy". :-)

5. Ah. You are correct. "Nut Nut" wins.
"Spying done. Countries saved."

The marvelous transformation by Ellie may from sultry secretary welcoming the visitors "from London" to "Jethro! They's here!" Also, the damned coat.
