Yes, that's correct. Add me to the list of folks who like Peggy as Andy's girlfriend. I thought she handled herself very well and would have been great for Andy. Just caught the episode where Aunt Bee and Clara try to tempt that single fellow with their Nestlerode Pie. I'm sure I've mispelled that, but, could someone please tell me what a Nestlerode is? A berry of some sort? I consider myself a real foodie, but I've never heard of this.....thanks !

I thought the following reply was unnecessary. We're here to discuss and enjoy our favorite TV show not critique each other's spelling and/or grammar. I'd hate to see someone shy away from sending in comments because they're afraid someone will berate them for it. Some of us are not as "computer literate" and maybe not even very good typists but we all can still enjoy our little corner of Mayberry anyway.

I am so excited. If you have seen my notes to the Digest, you will know that this is one of my favorite episodes and I have never been able to get it on tape. So, unless we have another of those power failures-which we have in these parts quite often-I will finally have it!! Thanks so much for sending on the information!! You're a real prince of a fellow!!

I sometimes wonder that myself and I AM Harvey Bullock. It was most kind of him to remember me and my daughter Courtney. (She is now teaching school and is just returned from a trip to China.) I enjoy all the news/digest letters, and mostly the comments from TAGS folk on episodes I wrote. In MR McTEEVEE I opened the episode with Opie in the back yard riding "Blackie" an imaginary horse. One viewer wrote to say Opie was too old to have imaginary friends and animals. That never crossed my mind when I dashed off Blackie...but the viewer may be right. However I think a boy's imagination can stretch the years at times. Another careful watcher wondered why (in THE BED JACKET) Andy would get Aunt Bee any "canning" Mason Jars for her pickles when in THE PICKLE STORY he made it plain he didn't like her pickles. Good point. The plain fact is that in the span of time writing other stories, I lost track of his dislike of pickles. Also, in the Pickle Story Auint Bee said she had entered the contest for the past ten or eleven years...when she had been in Mayberry only five years. Same excuse. We were never too punctilious aboiut doing research, our main attention was to the story and the shortness of time we had to deliver a script. We beg forgiveness.. A new note, I jumped in front of a camera last August to do a very brief interview for TVLAND. Most enjoyable. I was also tape-interviewed on a show due on MSNBC next Tuesday night (25th)"LEGENDS WITH AMATT LAUER AT 10 PM ct...But was told they cut it almost completely. Ah how soon they forget ! Best to ALL you great faithful Mayberrians Harvey Bullock ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 23 Jul 2000 17:24:05 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: inspirations << The famous "It May Look Like a Walnut" episode did inspire the first "Mork" episode, and there were similar writers, etc., >> I should have stated that "It May Look Like a Walnut" is an episode of "The Dick Van Dyke Show". Most of you knew that, I'm sure, but I managed to leave that out by accident...

Howard Morris directed it and even played a bit part as a TV repairman. I really thought she nailed the character home. >> The first time we see Andy and Helen actually dating (when Barney decides Andy needs a wife...remember the "softball team?") is my favorite with Helen. You could easily see why Andy liked her so much and why the two of them hit it off.

But she did appear as a judge! She also appeared as a mother of a bridal party (the groom's mother, I think). And the rest is listed at her biography. Anyway, most people thought I was crazy about the judge thing, but I knew I was NOT.

I don't want to turn the digest into a "for sale" page, but... I work with a girl who has tickets to a couple of events at Mayberry Days this year and now she finds out she won't be able to attend. I thought I would give our friends on the Internet chapter a shot at these. She has 4 Tickets to the 7pm Doug Dillard Concert on Friday night and 4 tickets to Col Tim's Talent Show on Saturday night. She would prefer to sell in groups of 4. Tickets are face value; Doug Dillard $15 each and Col. Tim's $20 each. If anyone out there is interested, email me directly at [EMAIL PROTECTED] They will go on a first come basis. Thanks, Gary at MeadowView ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 24 Jul 2000 07:52:40 EDT From: "Maureen Kowalski" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Thelma Lou sighting Helloooo Dollllll, Just wanted to say that I saw Thelma Lou on AMC this weekend in Cheaper by the Dozen. She played Jeanne Crain's high school friend Debbie, just dripping with Mississippi(she said so) sugar all over Mr. Gilbreath. She got Jeanne Crain to realize that her father was sweet even though he was a bit eccentric in his ways. Also, I saw In the Company of Animals and they showed a cat named Ernest T. I always did think that Laverne andShirley were patterned after Daphne andSkippy, the original Fun Girls. I don't know if I mentioned this before or not, but Jean Carson has a website, http://www.hellodoll.com I don't know if there is any one girlfriend of Andy's that I liked better, but there are qualities in all of them that I like. Another good one for a trained noticer. Remember the other night when Barney mentioned that he took out Phoebe Gilbert, Lemley Gilbert's sister? Well, if I remember correctly, wasn't there an episode of Gomer where he finds a stray dog and calls him Lemley Gilbert, and tells Sgt Carter that he had a dog back home by that name?

I'm not talking about Dr. Pendyke's Miracle Fertility Salve, but rather a very effective comedic method. You'll notice it most in scenes that have Andy, Barney and Gomer. For example, in "A Black Day for Mayberry" (the gold-truck episode), at the end, the trio engages in a triplet with the "A decoy," "Shazam!" phrase. The phrase is said two times to establish the "shazam" line to Gomer, and then flipped on the viewer by Andy delivering the "shazam" punchline the last time. Example two comes from "A Deal Is A Deal" (the Miracle Salve Co. episode), when the trio is at the courthouse and Aunt Bee calls "awful upset 'bout somethin'." The triplet goes something like this. Barney: Well what's the matter? Andy: She didn't say. Barney: What the problem? Andy: She didn't say. Gomer: What's wrong? Barney: She didn't say. These are great comedic moments. Does anyone else remember more triplets? ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 24 Jul 2000 08:55:01 +0100 From: Paul Jennings <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #241 I think Jack Egbert must be running Sarah's Chat Room sometime......I think he randomly "blackballs" us....and out we go.....! "Oh come off it Ramona.......Barney Fife....Social Studies 1-A.....Tweeky!" ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 24 Jul 2000 09:01:23 +0100 From: Paul Jennings <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V2 #241 I just gotta laugh evertime I recall "Gomer the Houseguest" hollerin' out the window at Merle Dean....and then before he can jump up and down on his car to make the noise....Andy comes to the window and yells...."Don't do that Merle!" That was the same episode the Billy Jack got a ticket for squeeky brakes! Now that was a total "Fife-upped charge!" And Billy Jack, under his breath, indicates that Andy's been around Barney so long that he's beginning to act just like him! While I'm thinkin' about it.....I can't remember the lines in the Mountain Divorce episode that Charlene utters when gettin' the divorce......any help out there? ------------------------------ End of wbmutbb-digest V2 #248 ***************************** ************************************************** ~ 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.
