Subject: The Darlings are Coming
>>>...at the very beginning of "the darlings are coming" ... i could swear i
remember as a youngster that episode starting with the darlings in their
house and briscoe reading the letter that stated dud had been dishonorably
discharged.
>>>
Perhaps your memory is a tad off; no such scene was ever part of any TAGS
episode. Is it possible you're thinking of the opening scene of "No Time
for Sergeants?" It's similar to what you've described, except that the
letter is an induction notice.

Yo!D You better believe George was there. I think he's milked being a TAGS
guy more than anybody. Even though he was first introduced as Goober Beasley!

I believe this one is called "My Fair Ernest T. Bass." If I'm not mistaken
it's from 1964, the year "My Fair Lady" was released in theaters.

Is that the same W.G. "Snuffy" Walden that did the guitar music interludes
and closing theme for "The Wonder Years"? If so that doesn't surprise me...I
always thought his acoustic version of "With a Little Help from My Friends"
sounded very Mayberryish...

Subject: Our Spunky Bee
Just thought I'd comment on the recent talk about Aunt Bee being angry or
bossy. I agree with "Aunt Bee 2" that she is simply SPUNKY. Bee
normally has a sweet and soft-spoken way. But she very much has her own
mind and becomes assertive when the situation warrants. The other night,
I watched my video of "A Singer in Town" in which Keevy Hazelton gives a
rock-and-roll arrangement to Bee and Clara's "My Home Town." Aunt Bee
vigorously insisted that the tender little ditty be sung as written, and
everyone agreed in the end that she was right. Actually, Aunt Bee
reminds me of my mother, with respect to her personality. Like Bee, my
mom is the sweet, home-loving, nurturing type; however, perceived
injustice or an attack on a family member really gets her dander up! I
think Aunt Bee would seem rather one-dimensional if she was never allowed
to be righteously indignant or just plain peeved. I like our Bee the way
she is!

Subject: Opie's Name
I've not heard this addressed, but I've been thinking lately about Opie's
name. I have never heard of another person or character with the name
Opie. Does anyone know the origin of this name? Is it his given name or
a nickname? If it's a nickname, I have a theory about it ("It's just a
theory. What's your theory?"). Maybe it's short for Opus -- after all,
he was Andy's "opus number one"! I'm not from the South, but in rural
Indiana we've had our share of unusual names. Just in the small farming
community I grew up in, there was a Punk, a Spook, a Hat, and a Tiddly
(he was our Floyd, the local barber). My mother also knew of two
brothers named Opal and Pearl (guess their mother wanted girls!). But we
didn't have a single Opie (I'm taking it for granted that Andy wouldn't
allow HIS son to be named Opal). Can anyone out there clue me in on this
matter? Or offer your own theories?
Janet

Subject: Preview of TAGS facts
Was wondering if this thought ever came up? Often I have been reading
from this site the postings of small facts on TAGS, things like Barney's
hair being combed differently in the same scene but from different
camera angles, or recently about Andy laughing out loud at Ernest T.
What if you experts on these facts could post them JUST prior to the
showing of that particular episode so we that ain't so observant or that
don't have all the episodes on tape could look for them right then.
This way we all could check them out immediately. Just a thought. Lots
of luck to you and yours.

That's "My Fair Ernest T. Bass." You know, if they wrote that into a play,

How about we do this. Let's try for this Friday night and next Saturday
night. We'll meet at 9:00pm EDT (that's 8:00pm Central Time).
Friday July 14th @ 9:00pm EDT
