Did Peggy (Joanna ?) ever act in anything else? >> Hey To All! Miss Peggy was played by JoAnna Moore. She was in numerous television shows and in several movies, including "Son Of Flubber". If I am not mistaken, she was also married at one time to Ryan O'Neal and the mother of Tatum and Griffin O'Neal. If I am wrong on this, I am holding my bucket in my hand to put it on my head!

Perhaps you were thinking of Elizabeth MacRae, who appeared in the episode "Big Brothers" and then later starred as Lou Ann Poovie on Gomer Pyle - USMC. - --Paul ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 21 Jul 2000 17:29:30 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: (no subject) I''m a newberry I have several favorites in reply to the one with Gomer on the roof of the sheriff station Andy and Barney were after (bank) robbers and Gomer kicks a box of christmas lights off the on to the sidewalk and the robbers state "GIVE UP THEY HAVE MACHINE GUNS" sure enjoy this my daily dose fo Mayberry. Sincerely, Mark [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 21 Jul 2000 16:46:12 -0500 From: "Wendy Phillips" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Favorite scene Undoubtedly for me, the best scene in all of TAGS is the church scene in Sermon for Today. You can tell Andy, Barney, and the writers drew from actual experience. I can remember as a kid, sitting in church, trying to do anything to keep occupied. I never caught flies like Opie, but I fiddled with this and that. I counted ceiling tiles or looked at the spackling design like Andy did, thought I knew the words to the 2nd verse of the hymn and had to look back at the book. I've been so sleepy before that it made my head hurt like Barn's and my eyes droop like Gomer's. Thank goodness I never snored, but you know how it is when you sort of drift off and then wake up - - you shift your eyes back and forth just to see if anyone saw you! Of course, the climax is when Rev. Brean yells "What's your hurry?" When I watch that scene, I'm never in too big of a hurry to rewind it 10-12 times!

Helen was too testy, haha Ellie, was still a spoiled brat from Father Knows Best, and there was the almost wanna be girlfriend, Mary, the nurse.. wasn't she a nurse? trying to give Rafe Hollister a shot. Peggy had class and Andy was a snob... wouldn't date a rich girl.. go figure. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 21 Jul 2000 18:09:36 -0400 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [none] In reply to Ben, I've always been partial to Peggy too. I liked all the girls Andy dated, well maybe not Mavis Neff, she was rather forward; but I especially cottoned to Miss Peggy. I read somewhere that Andy was self-admittedly easily intimidated by women and considering how very attractive and charming Joanna Moore was I'll bet she was a real challenge for him. I saw her in an old movie about some disaster on either a ship or zeppelin, don't remember. It's a shame we didn't see her in more things as she seemed to be a good actress. And thanks to Mrs. Lesch for her daughter's quote about the keys; I loved it!

But I did hear that Griffith was always most comfortable with Helen/Aneta Corsaut. I'm not sure why that is. I do like Helen but she seemed to have an awfully short fuse. So did Thelma Lou. There were episodes in which they'd seem to blow up at the least little thing, but then there were episodes in which you could easily see why Ange and Barn loved them so much...

Im a newby, but I was just wondering how many other TAGS fans like the episode #100 entitled Sermon for the day? One of my favorite scenes is Barney and Gomer working on the "Band Stand" and Gomer exclaims "Damp under there could be Spyders"!

At any rate, I read that Andy Griffith was not very comfortable with most of the women who provided him with female companionship. >> Miss Peggy was my all time favorite "Andy girlfriend". She was a pure southern belle and could sing like an angel and could cook too. I wish Andy had held on to her. If AG didn't like the females , I wonder who he would have wanted - Marjorie Main? Linda - the Goober who ain't too picky ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 21 Jul 2000 19:40:39 -0400 From: Randy Everette <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Ange's Girlfriends I vote for Peggy too. She was warm, charming, outgoing, and friendly. Ellie Walker just didn't seem right for Ange. I don't dislike Helen, but she always seem to me to come across less warm, even cool at times.

I just want to take a moment to brag on myself; kinda like Barney hemming and hawwing next to the framed news clipping of his convict capture! I put together a small website that lists all my other websites! You newcomers are welcome to come and peruse my Mayberry sites. Some are long, some are short but they're all fun! Check it out: http://community-2.webtv.net/misspoovey2/IMadeThis/ And you regulars are always welcome back for a visit! Now I got to wondering about something the other night...do you suppose the writers on Happy Days drew inspiration from "The Fun Girls" episode when they dreamed up "Laverne & Shirley" ? Cos I sure do see a resemblence! I'm speaking of when the girls were first introduced as dates for Ritchie and Fonzie. And speaking of the fun girls, wasnt it a hoot to see the way Aunt Bee snatchd Opie back into the kitchen, out of the wiley clutches of those two wanton women?! Sure cracked me up!!! ~the bucket wearing misspoovey~ ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Jul 2000 00:51:41 GMT From: "Alison Johnson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: The tomato incident A nice plump red tomato - 50 cents Dry cleaning bill for Otis's shirt - $5.00 The expression on Barney's face when the tomato splatters all over the front of Otis's shirt - PRICELESS Doug Johnson, MD (Mayberry Devotee) "I ain't standin' in no stag line with Mr Schwump and a bunch of slumped over teenage boys." ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 21 Jul 2000 21:10:24 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Andy's Hair i wrote in to wbmutbb a while back and commented on the same thing (Andy's hair parted on the wrong side). I did some research and found out that sometimes in the cutting room they put the film in backwards and it just slipped by without anybody knowing it. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 21 Jul 2000 22:16:59 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: WBMUTBB Meeting at Sarah's Diehards Chatroom Just a reminder that Saturday night at 9pm ET we'll be getting together at Sarah's to enjoy each others company.

He has actually built replicas of Wally's filling station, Floyd's Barbershop, & the Bluebird Diner! http://www.metropulse.com/dir_zine/dir_2000/1029/t_cover2.html Mr. McBV - Mayberry Chapter ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Jul 2000 00:13:35 EDT From: "Douglas Risley" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Asa as a doctor?! And a big thank you Hi! I was watching one of the color TAGS yesterday morning when I noticed Asa the bank guard playing a doctor! I kinda had to giggle at the thought of the guy with a big ball of tin foil and leaving his gun in the rain diagnosing Andy's cold. It was a good episode with Aunt Bea, Goober, Howard, and Emmet. I guess after Barney's departure they had to depend alot more on "ensemble situations" to keep the show fresh and funny. It sure must have worked considering the show ended in the #1 slot in 1968. Also: I just wanted to thank Harriet, Janet, and Paul for their insights on my question concerning Aneta and Betty. I really have enjoyed reading everyone's insights into TAGS. Thanks Allan for all your hard work. This little corner of Mayberry is real nice to visit.

This was many years ago - even before he was Sam the Butcher. His face was so very familiar but not associated with any one character that I thought for a moment he was someone I should know and speak to from out of my past somewhere. I did not know his name at the time and gave my show business trivia expert (my younger sister) the job of finding it out for me. Every time I have seen him in anything since, I feel as if I am watching an old friend. My earliest memories of him come from "Sergeant Bilko".

Congratulations go out to fellow member Scott Smith and his wife, Kim for the birth of their daughter Abby on July 15th. Scott is also the "Presiding Goober" of the "Some of Us Got It... Some of Us Ain't" TAGSRWC Chapter in Clayton, NC and just a prince of a fellow. Please keep a good thought for Scott - someone who has to get up early in the morning and will be keeping some strange hours for awhile.

I remember her playing a judge once and seems like she was on another time. Seems like our Mayberry family pops up everywhere!!!
