Ever wonder how they made Mr. Ed speak? Here's a theory from an IMDB message board, and the episode where you can see evidence in the lower right corner @ about 10:40!
"I don't understand why they are just that...theories. Owning both "best of" box sets and only seeing the episodes once or so each you can easily see that a string attached to Mr Ed's halter was what was used to make him talk. The see-thru string reflects several time on camera and is pretty easy to see in a few, if not all of the episodes. The episode that most proves this "theory" is *Ed, the Artist* which is on the second "best of." In a scene where Ed is painting another horse on the bottom right hand screen you can see that the string attached to Mr Ed goes down to a pair of hands holding a wooden pole and the hands tug on the pole and Mr Ed moves his mouth. I really don't know how people have never seen this and figured out that no, it wasn't peanut butter, not electric shock, not that Mr Ed really knew how to talk... I'm almost positive that this method was painless and did not cause discomfort to Bamboo Harvester. So there's my two sense, if you own the box sets watch... the string is there."
