Welcome to Muckey Landing, Delaware, a place mostly known for being not too far from someplace you’d rather be. While you’re here, stop by the Muckey Landing Market, Diner and Hardware Emporium at the corner of St. Jones and Broad, and say hi to proprietors Virgil Slatter and Harmon Truesdale. If it’s Tuesday, try Harmon’s bologna special. Then sit back and enjoy this award-winning full-cast comedy fiction sitcom, comin’ at you in the tradition of Lum and Abner, I Love Lucy, and The Jack Benny Show. Well, it would be just like those shows if their characters smoked, drank and cussed. Prepare your funny bones, ’cause we’re gonna do our best to tickle ’em!
