La fattoria dei giorni felici (1965) was one of the victims of CBS' infamous "rural purge" in the early 1970s, along with such shows as The Beverly Hillbillies (1962), Petticoat Junction (1963), and Mayberry R.F.D. (1968). At the time, close analysis of demographics indicated that these shows appealed only to those who lived in rural areas and older people. The head of CBS and his new chief of programming Fred Silverman decided to cancel them, even though they were all still hugely popular and got high ratings, in favor of more "hip" shows that were targeted toward a younger, more urban and suburban audience. An often-told joke that passed into legend is that "CBS canceled every show with a tree in it."
