Product Description: Produced by her husband Joe Hamilton who had also produced her variety series, Carol Burnett is Dorothy Benson, wife of advertising worker Jim (Charles Grodin), mother of three and would-be murder mystery writer, who instigates the family move from living in New York City to suburban Darkhaven Manners. Based on the novel by Erma Bombeck
A little short but definitely worth it For the price that you can get for this movie I would definitely check it out. Carol Burnett is at her beautiful best as Dorothy Benson, housewife and want-to-be-writer who moves her strangely normal family to the suburbs of New York. Of course she gets to meet all of the neighbors, deal with her hubby (Charles Grodin) who's obsessed with the lawn (thus the name of the movie), her kids' crazy schedules, and her friends who use her as a sacrifice for cookie sales and parties. Different but sweet anybody who likes the brilliant Burnett has to check into "The Grass Is Always Greener Over the Septic Tank." For the $5.00, it's worth it.
