La fattoria dei giorni felici

Ambientata ad Hooterville (Illinois), la storia è quella dei coniugi Douglas, che decidono di abbandonare New York per trasferirsi in una fattoria di 160 acri: l'avvocato Oliver è entusiasta; la moglie Lisa è disperata perché non potrà più dedicarsi allo shopping a Park Avenue. Strano a dirsi sarà proprio lei ad adattarsi meglio allo spirito della campagna mentre Oliver continua a ragionare come se fosse in città.
