Hey Mayberry experts! Can anyone tell me what episode has Aunt Bee trying to decide what to give a young man (another nephew?) for a graduation present? I think she decided on a dictionary. Thanks for your help. Scooter ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.wbmutbb.com/

Watching "My Three Sons" where the Douglas family visits Dad Steve's home town--it was Mayberry! And guess whose house he grew up in--the Taylor's! Also had Jud on a bench talking to Douglas boys, and other people, houses and store fronts (grocery, t.v. repair) from Mayberry. Who knew!

barney's other occupation
I think maybe Barney would have been a librarian--he and another fella was in charge of over 3,000 books in the PX library on Staten Island during the big one (WWII). Barney loved to read (detective novels, the Police Gazette, and books on judo, the supernatural, child rearing and poetry as well as learning new things from magazines like Learn-A-Month.) Barney would have made a great librarian with his desire to run a taught ship and his inquiring mind! Scooter ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.wbmutbb.com/

epilogues
Hey everybody! Does anyone know why some of the episodes on DVD and on streaming services do not have the epilogues? For example, the VHS tape I had of "Barney Mends a Broken Heart" had the final minute, but my DVD doesn't, and neither does Netflix.

Hey fellow Mayberrians! Probably most of you know this, but there are dozens of Andy Griffith Show commercials featuring TAGS characters on YouTube. It's like watching additional epilogues you've never seen before, some even in color. I also love the old non-TAGS ads featuring Don Knotts. Happy viewing!

One last sad death to report for 2016: william christopher, who played an I.R.S. agent and the new Dr. who took out Opie's tonsils (but couldn't carve a turkey!).

Favorite color episode
My favorite color episode: "Dinner at Eight." Classic lines: "I got spaghetti up to my eyeballs and I just wanna go to bed!" and "It's made with a secret Greek spice (oregano)."

Yes, Virginia, there is a Mayberry. It is found in all who have goodness, kindness and gentleness in their hearts.

andy editing show
On Best of the Dick van Dyke show, disc 5, go to bonus features, rare rehearsal footage (narrated by Arthur Godfrey). It may also be on one of the DVDs of entire season collection. Andy is seen editing a TAGS episode with Sheldon Leonard, shows briefly Andy shaving and Opie talking by His side. I'm hoping some day additional deleted scenes will show up. By the way, the DVDs of TAGS delete a couple scenes that appear on the tapes (such as the epilog of the show where nurse Mary and Andy are discussing the black eye Andy got by Daphne's boyfriend--why leave out such a funny last minute?

Was watching bonus material from Dick Van Dyke Show Fan Favorites and saw Andy Griffith and (I think) Sheldon Leonard editing a scene from TAGS.
