Second of eight films in which Marjorie Main and Percy Kilbride portrayed Ma and Pa Kettle.
As the Kettles are shown the features of their new home the newsreel footage on TV is that of the first flight of the Hughes H-4 Hercules AKA "Spruce Goose". The H-4's first and only flight was on 2 November 1947, just 17 months prior to the release of this movie.
One of the modern paintings hanging in the Kettles' new home is by Fernand Léger whose work had focused on the machine age and the alienation of the individual as he became a consumer.
Donna Leary's debut.
"Mrs. Birdie Hicks: [after getting the Kettles evicted] Good day. Ma Kettle: [grabs Birdie] Listen here Birdie, it may be a good day for you, but it ain't for Pa. All the poor man wanted was a new tobacco pouch and instead he won a house he didn't want and he got a bad sunburn."
"Tom Kettle: Theories are nice, Ma, but not when they break up families and threaten lives."
