Anderson) Subject: Schudeuled Late Events in Mayberry Don't forget Howard's bashes when his mother got married and he took over the bachelor pad. I realize the first one ended rather early, but the next one he started later so it would not end so early. Also I do believe the annual "Harvest Ball" was a rather late event for the people of Mayberrry. Of course the reason everything probably ended so early is the fact that it got so dark early in Mayberry. Have you ever noticed that when Andy comes home most nights for supper it is already dark, even in the summer, and the Taylor's eat around sixish.? "Must be the bomb!" ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 04 Jul 2000 23:01:36 -0700 From: "Mary Giesbrecht" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: The Courtship of Eddie's Father Hello Folks, I just watched the old movie, "The Courtship of Eddie's Father" for the first time. Ronny Howard plays Eddie and steals the whole show! What a great little actor! It was fun to watch him! I hadn't seen him in anything but TAGS, as a very young boy. I understand he was in some other movies when he was even younger. I'll be looking out for those now.

The last few digests mentioned actors who were both in The Andy Griffith Show (TAGS) and The Dick Van Dyke Show, hence the "DVD" abbreviation. Additionally, there ARE several episodes of TAGS in the DVD format, made by different studios/labels. I was dissappointed in the box set by Madacy; the picture quality was decent but nothing special. Also, there is a lot of overlap, as certain episodes keep showing up on each of them.

Even though the marque said 11 AM Service, usually in the summer (in the South) Sunday service started at 10:30 or earlier. Most moms would have a roast or hen in the oven (you could actually go to church and leave something cooking in the oven and not worry about the house burning down) so you could have dinner as soon as you got home. Then it was lounging around on the porch or nap time or even churning out some homemade ice cream. As far as the story about the band - when they started out putting the band together remember they didn't know the uniforms were falling apart and the band stand was deteriated. And also, summer evenings didn't get dark til around 9. In What's Your Hurry the best epilogue of all shows was listening to Andy sing and play the guitar and then panning over to Mr. Tucker and the apple completely peeled dangling in his hand as he napped brings a tear to this un's eye!

SANDI: I THINK THE REFERENCE WAS TO CHARACTERS BEING PLAYED ON DVD AS IN DICK VAN DYKE!! NOT THE CD MEDIA BUT I'M SURE SOMEDAY SOON THEY WILL BE ON DIGITAL DISC!! KEITH Hey To All! I keep hearing TAGS and DVD used together but I have a question please....Where are they? I have looked in my media catalogs, I have looked in my media stores (media play and best buy) but I have yet to see a TAGS on DVD.

I've always thought that the "What's You Hurry?" episode contained one of the biggest to-dos over nothing in it. It happens when Andy tells Aunt Bee that they plan to "run down to the drugstore and get some ice cream." Aunt Bee suddenly launches into a fit about "Why do you have to run? Why is everyone aleways running?" If I had been Andy, I would have said, "For Pete's sake, Aunt Bee, it's just a figure of speech! Truth be told, we're probably going to walk over there." Of course then, the episode would have ended because they never would have felt guilty and tried to put together a band concert. I guess that's why I'm not Andy. Nutsy "Looks awful spidery to me!" ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 5 Jul 2000 07:23:41 -0700 (PDT) From: Big Bob <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #217 If I remember correctly; Aunt Bee had her hair down during the fued episode between the Carter's and the Wakefield's, when the kids came to Andy's house in the middle of the night to get married. > Subject: Re: Aunt Bea's Hair > > >[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: there are > > several episodes (rare as they might be) > > that one could see Aunt Bee with her > > hair down out of her bun.

Did any one else catch the episode when Opie gets his math grade changed to an F after bringing home straight A's and Barney is trying to recite the preamble to the constitution ? He gets so frustrated that he ends up messing up his hair, and it is hanging in his face on the close up shots. On the long shots, Barney's hair is combed back neat on the sides. They switch back and forth between close up and longshots several times consecutively. I guess they must have done a couple different takes of that scene, once close up, and once long shot, and just edited them together. In the first episode "The New Housekeeper", Rose is played by Mary Treen, and she also plays Clara Grigsby in the episode about the travelling shoe salesman/gossiping episode. Mary was also a regular on the Joey Bishop Show, playing Hilda Hinklemeyer, Joey's wise cracking maid/nanny. She and Joey played off each other so well. Yesterday while I was out roamin' around these parts out in the middle of nowhere in Indiana County, PA,(in the vicinity of Jimmy Stewart's home town/birthplace) I drove past a Personal Care Home and it was called The Keeper of the Flame, sure as the sign on the lawn said it was . I howled. Seems Mayberry lives on even when and where you least expect it. Also, a question: Was Cheerio Meredith (Mrs Brand) in Arsenic and Old Lace with Cary Grant or does she just bear a resemblance to the ladies who were in that picture?

It's been a long time since I saw the original of this episode but I think they probably cut some pretty crucial scenes from it. Like the reason WHY Barney ended up going on their honeymoon with them. Seems like there was some kind of mix-up or something that happened causing Barney to end up with them. I was also wondering...Andy and Helen went on their honeymoon, Aunt Bee went to live with Sam and Mike - Where did Opie go? - -Charlie ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 5 Jul 2000 10:25:50 -0500 From: "Paul Mulik" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: epilogues >From: "DEBORAH DUBOSE" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> All episodes have epilogues. Paul Well, now Do They? The reason I ask is what about the band concert episode? You know how they are sitting around the porch, Gomer says they are pooped to the visiting Pastor, Andy asks, "What's your hurry?" >>> That IS the epilogue to that episode. This one, and a few others, were never cut out for syndication, because the storyline just didn't work without it. In this episode (Sermon for Today) the OPENING scene was normally cut out -- Andy and Opie sitting on the front porch reading "Little Orphan Annie" from the Sunday paper (this was a great scene, but in the mind of some TV executive, it was not important). Another epilogue which was normally included on TBS and WGN is the one from "Back to Nature" (the one where the group of boys go camping with Andy, Barney and Gomer). The entire opening scene was cut out of this one, too. Andy, Barney, and Floyd are sitting on a bench on Main Street. Barney is complaining about Gomer's new-fangled gas pump, which alledgedly scratched the squad car. Floyd complains about modern electric lather makers, claiming that it's better to make it yourself with a mug and a brush (klup, klup, klup -- isn't that a nice sound?) Then Opie walks by with a transistor radio held up to his ear. Andy calls out to him, but Opie is so engrossed in the baseball game he's listening to that he doesn't even notice. The entire scene is meant to make modern inventions look undesirable, hence the need to get "back to nature." - --Paul ------------------------------ End of wbmutbb-digest V2 #221 ***************************** ************************************************** ~ Visit our sponsor ~ Weaver's Department Store ~ http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/weavers/ ************************************************** You must send your comments to the Digest from the address you used to join WBMUTBB or your message will not be posted.
