This comedy was such a hit with audiences, it spawned the Ma and Pa Kettle series in nine films, released from 1949 to 1957.
This film, and its enduring popularity, served as an inspiration for the hit 1960s TV series Green Acres (1965), which also centered on a married couple moving from city to farm.
The incredibly sloppy pig is named Cleopatra, an obvious reference to Claudette Colbert's most famous role in Cleopatra (1934).
