Top 5 TAGS moments
Matt, Thanks for starting the discussion about the Top 5 emotional TAGS moments - hard to disagree with yours, or any of the others mentioned. It just goes to show, once again, how great writing and acting made TAGS such a classic, memorable show. One of my favorites is the end of "Opie's Hobo Friend", first when Opie asks Buddy Ebsen, his hobo friend, if he really stole Aunt Bee's purse - then left behind the fishing lure that Buddy had given him. The look on Opie's face, and Buddy's avoiding looking at Opie, or answering him, are moving scenes. Then, when Andy lets Buddy go to catch the train, and they look at each other without saying much directly - that is some great acting too.

RE: My top 5 TAGS moments that get to me
Matthew,I agree with your list, but I'd add a 1a: From "The Cow Thief" when Barney brings up another crazy idea that another Mayberry mayor had, Andy hiring him as his deputy. Somehow, that just brings home the deep friendship and loyalty between the two. I always get a catch in my throat when I watch that scene!

My top 5 TAGS moments that get to me
Here are my top 5 moments from the show that make me tear up a little or get me a little emotional. 1.Andy on Trial-When Barney defends Andy by saying "This is a small town." 2.The Song Festers-When Gomer sees Barney softly singing the song inside the vacant . performance room. 3. Barney and the Cave Rescue-When Thelma Lou and Helen say that Barney is quite a guy after he becomes the hero in the rescue. 4.Man in a Hurry-(my favorite episode by the way)-when Malcolm Tucker starts to leave after his car is fixed and he looks at the faces of all those that are saying goodbye. Also the end shot of him falling asleep with the peeled apple core in his hand. 5. Floyd the Gay Deceiver-When Floyd watches the lady drive away and admires her so much. Andy in turn sees how much this means to Floyd. One additional-The Christmas Story-Ben Weaver singing Away in a Manger from the outside looking in. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.wbmutbb.com/
