Cow Trippers, The

Cow Trippers, The
Mrs. Brown has moved to Hoke's Bluff to study rural school life. She's used to schools equipped with state-of-the-art computer labs and up-to-date technology. At Hoke's Bluff, however, high tech is an intercom system consisting of an aluminum can with a piece of string attached. On the first day of school, the sheriff shows up looking for leads to cow-tipping pranks. Her study of 'these people' may be more than she bargained for. But as relationships are built, Mrs. Brown not only teaches her students a few lessons, but she learns a few of her own. And when Clyde, the school janitor, has eyes for her, she also discovers that there's more on these people's minds than just cow tipping.

Last Resort, The

Last Resort, The
Grab yourself a can of Aqua Net hairspray! There's a hot new beauty craze that's driving the men of Lost Creek mad. It's the beehive hairdo, and the higher the hair, the better. Dixie, a beauty shop owner and a master of beehives, has been inundated with customers who are desperate for high hair. Eager to win the heart of Avis Crum - a 90-year-old womanizer who happens to be the only available bachelor in Lost Creek - Granny Rose and Wider Snipes decide to get themselves a beehive since 'There ain't nothin'more sexy to a man than a woman with high air.' Determined to become a beehive master herself, Linda Jean sets out to learn the art of the beehive by practicing on neighborhood scarecrows. In the meantime, a couple of city slickers arrive in Lost Creek looking to sign up organ donors. The hospitable folk of Lost Creek are more than willing to oblige. You see, they've been wanting to get rid of their organs for years in order to make way for the hottest 'new' instrument to hit the region, the harmonica. This richly entertaining character-driven farce will charm audiences with its down-home humor and its eccentric and lovable cast of characters.

One That Got Away, The

Synopsis:
A headline in the newspaper reads, "Annual Fishing Tournament Expecting Record Number of Female Participants." This news is great for women who love the sport of fishing. It's even better news for men who love the sport of women. When Brad and his buddies hear the news, they pack their computer bags and head to Weiss Lake for the tournament. Because the guys know that the women at the tournament will be impressed with men who exude expert fishing knowledge, they pick up a couple of fishing magazines for research. They figure by the time the "chicks" find out the men don't know anything about fishing they have already won them over with their "charm and animal magnetism." But when one of the men's inept cousin tags along unintentionally and then accidentally spills the beans about the men's intentions, the weekend becomes more than anyone bargained for.
