Re: Susan Oliver - reason Andy went back to the courthouse
Oh, he was definitely going back to be with her. Just as the title Prisoner of Love implies, Andy was ignoring reality by following his heart and not his head. You can see him struggle with it when he's standing outside the courthouse doors. Besides, wasn't Andy always trying to teach Barney that you have to sheriff more with your heart and not so much with your head? ;) Terrell McEntyre Burt and Squirt Chapter of TAGSRWC You beat everything, you know that?! - Original Message - From: Holland Shoaf Subject: Susan Oliver - reason Andy went back to the courthouse Episode with Susan Oliver Did Andy go back to the courthouse ( after smelling her perfume on his collar ) 1. Because he was going back to be with her or 2. Because he knew Barney wouldnt be able to fight of the persuasion of a beautiful woman ? Me and my aunt got into it about this one.

411 Elm Street
In Sheriff Barney, we find out through the Barney Fife Subconscious Prober Primer that Barney lives at 411 Elm Street. What would become historically significant about that address?

Andy's...um...clothing?
I know this was discussed several years ago but watching Hot Rod Otis tonight brought it to mind again. How many times do we see Andy walking around in his skivvies? Off hand, I can count four episodes. I say skivvies because I know Aunt Bee didn't like the word underwear! Bonus question: Do we ever see any other cast member in their unmentionables?

Re: Left Door
Since nobody hazarded a guess except Ken (which was incorrect), I'll give the correct answer. The one time only the left door was open was in the first episode, The New Housekeeper. Barney arrested Emma Brand for jaywalking and pulled her into the courthouse through the left door. Andy came in a moment later to save her from the Naughty Deputy!

Re: Otis Trivia
Well, seeings how Otis has a penchant for celebrating special occasions, like birthdays, and seeings how the legal drinking age in NC in 1941 was 18, and seeings how Otis would never drink publicly as a minor, I'd imagine Otis got a proper snootful on his 18th birthday. So, from his arrest record, I'd infer that Otis was born on Sept. 23, 1923.

Re: G-Men
James Cagney starred in G-Men in 1935. However, Glenn Ford did play an FBI agent in Experiment in Terror in 1962, the same year The Bank Job episode was aired. So, maybe that was on the writer's mind when the episode was written.

Blooper
I was watching Opie and the Spoiled Kid and noticed a blooper. I searched the digest and couldn't find any mention of it. Opie was talking with Andy about getting more allowance. At one point, Opie stands up and leans against the railing at the desk. All these shots of Opie are reverse images (at least on the DVD). Opie's hat and the direction he looks at Andy are reversed. The guns and radio in the background are reversed. A little bit a lazy editing there.

Re: You're funny, you are
Boy, this one's right down my alley. In fact, I got my chapter name from one of these moments. :) Andy and the New Mayor actually has two of these. The first is when Andy is kidding Barney about his aftershave lotion. Oh, come on now... you're funny aren't you... boy, you're really funny... give you a hundred on the laugh meter.

Re: Cigarettes saved Barneys life
I believe you're talking about the Jailbreak. The bad guys are in a trailer at a trailer park. Barney is in front of the car with the trailer when a woman comes out of the trailer, gets in the car, starts it up, and then realizes she doesn't have any cigarettes. She gets out of the car and goes back into the trailer to get some cigarettes. Barney seizes the moment, jumps in the car, and drives off with the bad guys in tow. And we always thought cigarettes are bad for you! :) I always get a chuckle when I see Barney bracing himself against the car like he can stop it from moving!

Re: Aunt Bee's Romance
I found 3 other episodes with less than 8 people. Season 3, Episode #71: Floyd, the Gay Deceiver had 7 people. Andy, Opie, Aunt Bee, Floyd, Madeline Grayson, and a man and woman on the street at the beginning. Season 1, Episode #23: Andy and Opie, Housekeepers had 6 1/2 people (not because Horatio was there). Andy, Opie, Aunt Bee, Bertha Edwards, Jimmy, a man on the street near the end, and an unidentified driver (that counts as a 1/2, right?) near the end. Season 2, Episode #56: The County Nurse had 6 people. Andy, Barney, Mary Simpson, Rafe Hollister, and a man and woman on the street at the beginning. Terrell McEntyre Burt and Squirt Chapter - Original Message - From: DAVID QUINN While I was watching the 5th season episode of Aunt Bee's Romance this morning, I noticed something unusual. During the whole show, only 8 actors total appear. Andy, Opie, Aunt Bee, Floyd, and Roger Hanover. All of the scenes except one take place at the Taylor home. In the one scene that takes place downtown, two men and one woman walk by, making a grand total of only 8 people in the whole show. I would be willing to bet that is the least number of actors in any show. Most of the shows have more than 8 people just walking around the streets. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
