Although I don't remember seeing a cat, the episodes that mention cats that I can think of right off hand are: Opie the Birdman...where you hear a cat; In the episode where Andy goes to the mountains to camp, he gets a phone call while on vacation at home to come remove a lady's cat from

Mail Truck and Distance to Siler City

Johnna: I too have way too much time on my hands...and I'm guessing maybe the mailtruck would have right of way at an airport when the truck was picking up air mail? (or notjust a thought) As for Siler City...I was watching Aunt Bee the Chef, and Andy remarks it would only take her 25

The bench sitters that come to mind, besides the folks already mentioned, are the whittler that never specified what he was whittling, Clara (not sure if she was Johnson or Edwards) discussed her neuralgia with Floyd in the New Doctor episode. And Goober often sat there. Even Barn was known to

Other actors in Mayberry Roles

I have to say I agree with Janet (aka Thelma Lou). Its very hard, even after spending hours under my bucket thinkin on it, to imagine or accept anyone but the original cast in their roles. I doubt I would go to see the movie either if it ever was done. As fine an actor as Jim Carrey is, I

Barney in civvies

2009-07-13 Thread Debbie Ritter
During the cave rescue, Barn had on civvies. I THINK he had on a suit other than the ol salt and pepper in Raleigh when he was working. And of course, when he spent the night at the jail with Otis, he was wearing his pjs and a robe.

I have wondered about Aunt Bee leaving Opie alone too, and how she got there. As for Barn, didn't he use the excuse of having to return Goober's car? (Which brings up another question, what car did Goober have? I know he had the truck...and what happened to Andy's truck that was in the
