Petticoat Junction is an American situation comedy produced by Filmways, which originally aired on the CBS network from 1963 to 1970. The rights to the show are held by CBS Television Distribution. The setting for the series was the Shady Rest Hotel in the farming town of Hooterville.

A petticoat is a garment worn under a woman's skirt. The opening titles of the series featured a display of petticoats hanging on the side of a large water tank. The "junction" in the title indicates that the Shady Rest Hotel was situated at a crossing of two train lines (though only one is ever mentioned).

Set in the rural town of Hooterville, the show followed the goings-on at the Shady Rest Hotel, of which Kate Bradley (Bea Benaderet) was the proprietor. Her lazy Uncle Joe (Edgar Buchanan) helped her in the day-to-day running of the business, while she served as a mediator in the various minor crises that befell her three daughters: Betty Jo, Bobbie Jo, and Billie Jo. The actresses portraying Billie Jo and Bobbie Jo changed over the years. Billie Jo was played by Jeannine C. Riley the first two seasons, and then by Gunilla Hutton for one year before Meredith MacRae assumed the role for the show's remaining seasons. Pat Woodell was the original Bobbie Jo for two years, with Lori Saunders playing the part subsequently.

In 1963 CBS network broadcasted a comedy series Petticoat Junction produced by Filmways. The Petticoat Junction was broadcasted for seven years and came to an end in 1970. Petticoat Junction is a series part of characters from rural about created by Paul Henning.

The setting for the series was the Shady Rest Hotel just outside of the farming town of Hooterville but few seasons were also in Green Acres. The Shady Rest Hotel is situated on the train line of the C & FW Railroad. The show repeatedly mentions the Shady Rest Hotel as being 25 miles from Pixley and 25 miles from Hooterville dead in the center. The characters seem to go to Hooterville for some things and services as you can see that Hooterville Hospital and Hooterville High and Pixley for others notably supermarket shopping beauty parlors and movies.

The petticoat of the title is an old fashioned garment once worn under a woman's skirt. The opening titles of the series featured a display of petticoats hanging on the side of a large railroad water tank where the three daughters are skinny dipping. In fact the show's opening theme is said to contain a hint of sexual innuendo in the line Lots of curves you bet and even more when you get to the Junction. This means that the line could be referring not to the railroad tracks but to the figures of Kate Bradley's three beautiful daughters.

The idea for Petticoat Junction came from Paul Henning's wife. She used to tell him stories of her childhood when she was visiting her family's hotel in Eldon Missouri. The stories she used to tell Paul about her adventures at the Burris Hotel became the basis of the show.

During pre-production proposed titles were Ozark Widow Dern Tootin and Whistle Stop. Set in the rural boondocks of Hooterville the appearance followed the goings on at the Shady Rest Auberge of which Kate Bradley (Bea Benaderet) was the proprietor.

Her apathetic Uncle Joe Carson (Edgar Buchanan) helped her in the day to day active of the business while she served as an advocate in the assorted accessory crises that befell her three daughters Betty Jo Bobbie Jo and Billie Jo. The actresses assuming Billie Jo and Bobbie Jo afflicted over the years.
