Mayberry moment...again

I'm always jumping in and hangin' on with a Mayberry reference whenever I can. My dad's old dump truck has a gas leak and must be fixed asap. My husband was telling me the truck smells like gas. So, of course, I said What do you think that truck runs on, coal? Bee in New Concord, OH

call the man

I had to call the man this morning for a malfunctioning dishwasher and an old Maytag dryer. I certainly had a Mayberry moment while talking to the repairman on the phone. Almost like talking to Wally about a car repair. Does it do this during the wash cycle? What does the knob look like on

Warren

I didn't mind Warren in the color shows. Although, I prefer Barney as deputy. However, Andy changed his demeanor in the color shows. When Barney was in the color shows, it just wasn't the same. Maybe the grumpiness came out in Andy from how he was really feeling about the show. Bee in New

Mayberry reference

There is an SUV around my area that I keep seeing and hearing. It has a high pitched noise and I am sure something is going out on it. It goes by my house regularly and I have seen it in town. I told my husband (like Floyd says) it has a whine like a crying child. Bee in New Concord, OH

back door and porch

I have always wondered about the back door, too. In Mr McBeevee when Opie says his horse Blackie is tied out back, there are a set of steps at the back door. Later, when Aunt Bee has a freezer full of meat (Call the man!), there is a back porch. Is the porch supposed to be at the back of the

8th grade class

I like the show Man in a Hurry. It might be good for a class of 8th graders. It shows a slower pace on a Sunday, a man in a hurry, and how the folks of Mayberry help a stranger. Bee in New Concord, OH Woman is 53 But Looks 25

chicken reference

mayberry folks

I sold my beloved 2001 PT Cruiser two days ago to a couple who drove up from West Va. to our house in Ohio. I had taken great care of my car and told the guy that the only time it had left the state was in 2004 when we went to Mayberry Days in Mt. Airy. He said I grew up an hour away from Mt.

trained noticing

In Man in a Hurry I noticed something. When Mr. Tucked goes to find Andy at the church, the long camera shot of them showed houses in the background. The upclose shot of them had downtown buildings in the background. I wonder what causes that? Bee in New Concord, OH Brenda J. Higgins

Forgot one

I always concentrate on the black and white shows, but I do like the Spaghetti color episode. The look on Andy's face when he has to eat another spaghetti dinner. He dabs his mouth with a napkin and ends up wiping his forehead with it. That strikes me funny everytime. Well, what do you know,

favorite laughs

Well, I have many favorites, too many to mention. But, I would say, from Convicts at Large, Floyd keeping time with a banana. Barney dancing with Big Maude (also known as Ralph Henderson), Barney fanning smoke and singing Andy, what are you doing in here Also, many scenes from A Case of the

We had a local deputy resign because he used the squad car for hauling scrap metal to the scrap yard. That makes me wonder about Andy and Barney taking the squad car for dates and personal use. Letting Uncle Ollie take it fishing or showing Nora and Ollie around town. Andy didn't have

Fred Goss

I have always gotten a kick out of Fred Goss when he has a cigarette hanging out of his mouth, ashes ready to fall off, and says It always pays to look your best. How ironic that Fred looks so sloppy. I can't imagine picking up dry cleaned clothing and having it smell of cigarette smoke. Bee

The New Andy Griffith Show

What did Opie say?

After watching Uncle Ollie and Aunt Nora visit again yesterday on TV Land (it was on twice), I realize I do not know what Opie says back to Andy when Uncle Ollie and Aunt Nora walk into the bedroom when they arrive. Andy says to Opie, You were supposed to tell us if you saw a maroon car. Opie

Goober

In the book Mayberry 101, I'll always remember this story that George Lindsey tells. He said he had a hard time knowing how to play the part of Goober. He asked Andy Griffith about it. Andy told George that Goober was the type of guy that would go into the diner and say This place has good

It is preying on my mind. Not praying. And, that was preying on my mind, too. Also, I watched TAGS on TVLand on Thanksgiving day. The Opie the Birdman has no laugh track. Some of my DVD's have no laugh track, either on certain shows. Did Opie the Birdman ever have a laugh track? That,

Five

I called my husband at work on the five or 5 opinion. He said he would spell it out. I am not sure on this one. When Andy and Barney both say five it is such a simple, to the point word. And, maybe five is the way to go. I want my watch engraved like that, too. Maybe for Christmas..

To answer the dinner question, dinner is lunch. I once was invited to dinner at my grandparent's house so I showed up in the evening. Grandma was rather upset that I did not show up at noon, when dinner was served. They did not call it lunch, it was dinner. Dinner was at noon. And, do not

As far as the '57 squad car rumor going around. You know how rumors get started in Mayberry and then get blown out of proportion. Didn't Barney hurt his finger once and then ended up being dead by the time the rumors spread? After all, I did hear this from a friend of a friend. If anyone

Shwamp theory

Since Mr. Schwamp did not have any lines, I think he was not a member of the actor's union and was not allowed to say anything. That would also explain why he has no credits at the end of the show. And, maybe why absolutely NOBODY knows who he is. Not even his fellow actors remember his
