She was played by Mabel Albertson, who was almost typecast as the guilt-inflicting, headache-ridden mother on so many shows. She also played Don Hollinger's mother on "That Girl", Rob Petrie's mother on "The Dick Van Dyke Show", and is perhaps best remembered for being Darrin's mother, Phyllis Stephens, on "Bewitched". She once repeated her signature line from "Bewitched"--"I think I'm getting a headache"--on an episode of TAGS...

Tim's & 7pm Doug Dillard Concert. Due to the demand for these tickets, you can put your name on a growing waiting list and hope for the best, or take advantage of the just added shows at the Downtown Cinema on Friday and Saturday night. Friday Night at 7pm - Michael Hoover in "Memories of Elvis" ($10)......Michael Hoover is a big fan of TAGS and is a wonderful performer on stage. He sang at Col. Tim's the past 2 years and there are plenty of WBMUTBB members that can attest to how good he is. Saturday Night at 7:30pm - "Smoke on the Mountain" ($10).....This is a very popular musical performed by the Surry Arts Players that has all the musical flavor of TAGS. Both of these events will be very entertaining, so please consider them. You can get more information on all the events at Mayberry Days (ticket order forms, phone numbers, details) on their webpage at www.surryarts.org. Jeff Koontz p.s. There will be 2 pair of tickets for Col. Tim's in the WBMUTBB Silent Auction, so you have yet a third option for Saturday night. We are hoping these will be popular items in the bidding. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2000 21:08:02 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Jack Burns I saw an interview with Andy in the early 70's. At that point, Burns and Shreiber were a very hot item appearing on: Ed Sullivan, Tonight Show, Laugh-In, and others. But ratings tell the story. Although Warren was Floyd's nephew, he just didn't fit into Mayberry and didn't want to change his routine as the producers desired. I was glad when he finally left the show. Then Ange never had another deputy! ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2000 21:13:59 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Barney the squirt It was the episode where the young woman who was the "daughter" of Jackie Coogan, (Uncle Fester) tried to sue Barney for not marrying her. When Andy as the Justice of the Peace started the ceremony, the enraged woman said,"Do you think I really want to marry this squirt?" Then in the epilogue, it was the last thing Andy said to Barney and then walked out of the office while Barney followed complaining! ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2000 21:19:35 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: To: AuntBee2 Barney added the joke that made the scene so funny when the little old lady was arrested for shoplifting. Andy said,"little old ladies ought not to clank." Then Barney chimes in,"especially when they're headed for the clink." Barney even cracked up himself in that episode! ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2000 21:25:30 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Howard Sprague's Mother Besides being Howard's mother, she also was Darren Stevens mother on Bewitched. I think she just went from show to show being the resident bi- - - -. She certainly was good at it! ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2000 21:37:01 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: NEWS FROM TAGSRWC HQ >From now until Old Man Kelsey's Crick rises: "The Rodney and Beverly Dillard Show" is performing at 3:30 p.m., Mon.-Sat., at the 76 Music Hall in Branson, Mo.

Feb is going to be in Ohio on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday Morning, and maybe she will be close enough to come see you and bring her Sister and her Aunt.

There were 78 episodes in whole. There may be other places, but, here is one I know of. http://members.carol.net/~palmer/episodes.htm Mayberry says thanks and happy motoring, David ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2000 00:35:25 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Elizabeth MacRae in Mount Airy! Hi everyone! I'm very happy to announce that Elizabeth MacRae is making plans to attend Mayberry Days, in Mount Airy this September. She will be making appearances on Friday and Saturday at various locations around town. Be sure to pick up your copy of the Mayberry Confidential once you arrive for more details! If you didn't get a chance to see her in Kingsport.............Don't miss Mayberry Days! Maybe if we're lucky..........she'll sing for us again!! I can hardly wait! Thanks also to Gary, Tammy and all the rest that made Kingsport such a wonderful weekend! I just don't wanna be pushy! Greg and Mira ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2000 08:53:21 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Quality of Mercy Regarding the fella who thought they cut the "quality of mercy" speech from the "Ernest T. goes into the army" episode the other night -- I believe Barney makes that terrific speech in the "Dogs dogs dogs" episode, which also includes the memorable "giraffes are selfish" soliloquy. You got two episodes mixed up. Which is perfectly easy to do when you consider all the classic lines we have to remember from that show ... MrsLesch P.S. My husband bought a truck over the weekend. You can imagine the fun we're having -- "everybody back on the truck!" ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2000 08:20:58 -0500 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re:Chat Rooms Just click on this link: http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/index.htm If your browser is java enabled, (I think Netscape 3.0 is the earliest version that is) The #mayberry chat room will appear. Just follow the instructions. Good Luck, and Mayberry says Happy Motoring!

Folks are on there at night around 8 or 9 pm but there's not really a scheduled time. Maybe what we'll do is schedule a time for us to have a WBMUTBB meeting at Sarah's? That sounds like it'd be fun. I'll try and arrange one for July. Allan ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2000 10:39:29 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Bart's site I lost sight of Bart's site - where is it? I want to see the photos. Once again please for the ol' Goob. PLEEEZE. Mayberry sez "Thanks and Happy Motoring" Linda the Goober (need I say more) ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2000 11:06:30 EDT From: "Maureen Kowalski" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Mrs.Sprague > Hellooo Dolll..... Mrs Sprague was also Mrs Stevens, Samantha's mother in law in Bewtiched. That actress must have been typecast, because she was the same type of overbearing, overprotective mother to an only son in Bewtiched.

I think I also remember Foley's grocery popping up along with the TV repair shop >>(redubbed Radio Repair, since that episode took place in the 1930s). The answer is correct; however, at no time were they said to be in Chicago. This makes a good trivia question to ask Star Trek "experts." Nearly all of them will say Kirk and Spock were in New York City, but the fact is that the city is never mentioned in the episode. Thanks to Floyd's Barber Shop, we know they were in Mayberry! Downtown Mayberry can also be seen in the Star Trek episode "Miri." - --Paul ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2000 11:53:10 EDT From: "Maureen Kowalski" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Helloo Dolllll Helloooo Dollllll, Boy was I surprised to actually find a website for Jean Carson!!!! It is at www.hellodoll.com (what else) I was even more surprised to find out that she graduated from Carnegie Tech (now Carnegie Mellon, aka CMU) my employer. I bet if I do some digging, I could find out if she graduated with any other famous actors,since the drama school here is known to produce stars. What a hoot!!!!! I was looking for pictures and found a treasure chest!!!
