Right and Right

First of all, I live it when there is a crowd on the street In Mayberry, and the number of Digest messages in the last few days if like one of those wonderful crowds. Thanks everyone so far on the help with Stunt Doubles/ body doubles. I think this is an interesting topic for trained noticers.

Re: Stunt Doubles

I'm not sure Barney ever had a stunt Double. How could they find someone with his build? I wonder if Burt Mustin was Barney's stunt double. Same brawny, musclebound build. Burt might have been able to do the rough stuff but, remember, he just couldn't holler. Garry (maker of Kerosene Cukes

Soon i Can Rest On My Laurels

thanks to the kind lady to confirm my fact that Howard McNear had a double in Goobers Contest. The back head view with the thin neck is so obviously not our Floyd. But now i can start resting on my laurels knowing my long search for Mr. Schwamps brother is bringing positive feedback from loyal

Re: Bar in Mayberry...

There couldn't have been a bar sign in Mayberry since everyone knows it's a dry county! except in the christmas episode - ben sells spirits in his store. which brings me to another point. in that episode, ben walks around to the right of the jail, apparently goes to the back and looks in

Re: WBMUTBB Digest, Vol 10, Issue 225

Hey I dated a few girls in high school who could have been Barney's double. Come to think of it I dated a few who could have been a double for Otis. Ken - what about Benjamin Franklin??? Remember Benjie? Brad Neil Bentley Cunningham My card, in case you ever need my services..

OMG - Spirits in Mayberry

I totally forgot about Ben complaining that moonshiners were competition to him selling spirits in his store! It's not possible that his store was outside the county line because it is right in Mayberry. That just frosts me! Peggy Maybe there's something about this I don't know.

Stunt doubles

The man who was a Karate instructor could have been Barney's stunt double. It sure fooled Fred! -- Ted http://image30.webshots.com/30/7/71/17/231177117EjadLZ_fs.jpg (Theodoric of York) ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com

Street Scenes

I have noticed when ever there is a scene shot on the streets of Mayberry there are always  car horns honking. Seems like over kill for such a small town. Must be a lot of impatient folks in Mayberry. I wonder what causes that? ___ WBMUTBB mailing

apologies and dual sighting

Boy I'm going to have to apologize for my bad typing in yesterday's Digest. Sorry about that haste and sloppiness. Among other things I meant to say waist model when speaking of Aunt Bee's badge in the Christmas episode. I won't address all my errors. It would take too long. I typed like Otis.

Stunt for Barney

The one stunt I remember seeing that made me wonder if Don Knotts really did it, was the show about A Medal for Opie. When Barney has Andy lie on his back on the front porch of Andy's house. Barney sits on Andy's feet and tells him to push his legs up for strengthening muscles in the legs.

Two Chairs No Waiting

Tuesday night's episode of the Two Chairs No Waiting Mayberry Podcast will be the last of a four part interview with the owners of The Taylor Home Inn and WBMUTBB Chapter members Dave Marsha Scheuermann. If you haven't had a chance to listen, episodes #40-43 contain all the interviews and I

Don Knotts Stunt Double

Don's stunt double was Jerry Brutsche; he is credited in Barney's Sidecar. He is also list in practically every Don Knotts movie made even the Don Knotts Television Show. Jerry was also in The 2 Every Which Way but Loose Movies as the sweeper driver and as one of the Black Widows. Jeff

odd chant by Barney

What's so odd about this chant. Barney said it in the 'The Jinx' to ward off evil spirits. Come fish come, come fish come. Sam's at the gate with a frosted cake, come fish come. vic I have an atomatic air conditioner, every time the weather gets hot it automatically breaks down

Mr. Schwamp's brother

I have included a link below to view two photos taken from the episode Up In Barney's Room from the 4th season. My friend, Tom Kessel, has referred to this character actor as Mr. Schwamp's brother in previous posts but just discovered that he was actually in a black white episode. Take a look

Stolen Idea

Watching an episode of Doc Martin, a British show when the local constable uses some strong cologne to impress a potential lady friend. When the doctor comes into the station on business, he says he smells varnish and asks if the constable has been painting. dan
