If you don't want anybody to know anything, then don't tell Floyd or Sarah. I believe between the two of them that they could write one doozy of a gossip column. You know there have really been some big stories come out of Floyd's barbershop and of course a switchboard operator. I think that would have been alot of fun and laughs putting those two together.

I think the Juanita and Sarah characters are best left to our imagination. Would kind of spoil the mystique to actually see them. I would like to see follow up stories on whatever happened to some of the folks who came through town; Like all the girls Andy dated, specially Ellie, and see how well Helen would handle their return, the klepto-menarac, Mr. Frisbee, the moonshinin' Morrison sisters Malcolm Tucker, and the newspaper man who tried to burn Andy, Johnny Paul Jason, Tex, Don Rickles' character Newton Monroe, Barney's cousin Virgil could have made for another show or 2, Luke Comstock, more episodes of Rafe Hollister, Ben Weaver, more stories of Opie's girlfriends, like Sharon Porter & Mary Wiggins, the young bullies and brats who came to town, Fred Scobie, Ed & Jenny Boone, Mr. McBeevee, definitely more Leon and Fred Goss, Barney's judo teacher, all the Alan Melvin characters, Aunt Bee's several suitors, the movie producer who came to film the town, the first doctor who came to town, Buddy Ebsens' hobo character, the Stranger in town, more Jim Lindsay & Freddie/Bobby Fleet, the return of Ellie's Uncle as the druggist, the Wakefields and Carters, and of couse more Malcolm Merriweather & maybe his family, the guy who tried to steal the onry old bull, The Darlings and Ernest T., the Fun Girls, the escaped convicts (after rehabilitation, of course), all those dogs, Henry the Jinx, Elinora Poultice.... What about the visiting preacher, What's your hurry? (Dr. Bream? from NYC) The list is endless. Otis' first trip to AA would be classic! Otis could have been in so many more stories. One question about the continuity of the show. In "Return to Mayberry", Goober & Gomer own a service station (Wally's?) Gomer's hair is rather long, so I doubt he was in the Marine Reserves, so was he honorably discharged from the Corps? And why was he promoted to Lance Corporal 15 years later? ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Aug 2001 15:02:34 -0700 (PDT) From: Anita Carpenter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Member Update Name: Anita Carpenter Home: Cincinnati, Ohio Have you been to Mayberry Days: Yes, last year for the first time, it was a present for my birthday 9/27. It was one of the best memories of my life. Favorite Quote:...I can take some manners, and I can take some cleaning up.....but I ain't about to be beat to death with no spoon.. Favorite Episode: It's a tie between: "Briscoe declares for Aunt Bee" and "Mr. McBeevee". Favorite Character: Andy...without him none of the others would have come to be. Plus his personality reminds me of my husbands. Favorite Barney Nickname: Killer Favorite TAGS Song: "Tearing Up Your Old Clothes For Rags". Of course that one makes me cry. Favorite TAGS things you own: TAGS home game, Tapes of almost all the shows. Most of all my autographed by Maggie Petersen "Charlene" and Doug Dillard "Mayberry Memories" book. A picture of "Charlene" hugging me on my birthday. All of the items I received at Mayberry Days 2000.

Does anyone know anything about this record or have a copy? When was it issued? I looked in a record guide and it ain't listed. It's become an interesting item in my Mayberry collection. Mine was marked for discount , and has never been open, so I guess a few are out there. "BOY, GIRAFFES ARE SELFISH!!"

I'd like to see Mr. & Mrs. Otis Campbell featured. I'm sure Mrs. has been on, but not as the subject of the episode. Sarah would be another one I'd like to know more about. Bet she could tell us a lot about our Mayberry friends! And then bless their hearts... :0) Aunt Bee from Modesto, CA Jacquie Bauman ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Aug 2001 18:18:14 -0400 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Unseen character I believe I would like to finally see Sarah, the town operator. She was mentioned in so many instances I felt like we all knew her and her mother who fell down at the bowling alley! Loved this query Brian!!

Was listening to some old time radio shows this weekend and heard Floyd playing an informant on a "Richard Diamond, Private Detective" episode. I have been used to hearing him on the Gunsmoke radio show but that was the first time I had caught him on a detective show. Floyd was going by the name of Rabbit and hanging out in a dive as well, lol.

I think Sarah or Juanita would be fun, but I'd like to see Leonard Blush - the smooth-voiced crooner on the radio that Mrs. Poultice gave voice lessons to. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Aug 2001 22:40:27 -0400 From: Jeff Howard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: The Character I'd Like to See The one character I have always wanted to meet is dear Sarah at the phone company.

IN RESPONSE TO THE INQUIRY ABOUT HOW GOMER PYLE, USMC, WAS VIEWED BY MARINES.....WHEN THE PROGRAM STARTED IT HAD THE FULL BACKING OF THE USMC AND HAD A NUMBER OF TECHNICAL ADVISORS ATTACHED TO IT DURING THE ENTIRE PRODUCTION RUN..... THE MARINE CORPS APPRECIATED THE PUBLICITY AND OFFERED ANY HELP THEY COULD PROVIDE, WHICH WAS OFTEN TAKEN UP IN LARGE CROWD SCENES, AND OF COURSE, IN THE TWO DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THE OPENING CREDITS..... LATER ON, IT WAS PERCEIVED THAT THE STORY LINES HAD PRETTY WELL RUN THEIR COURSE AND THE MARINE CORPS WERE NOT AS HAPPY AS AT THE VERY BEGINNING.....THEY ASKED FOR CHANGES TO BE MADE BUT THESE NEVER TOOK PLACE.....THEN THE PROGRAM ENDED WITHIN A YEAR AFTER THIS..... MOST INDIVIDUAL MARINES, HOWEVER, WERE NOT TAKEN BY THE PROGRAM AND WERE NOT PLEASED TO BE REFERRED TO AS SERVING IN THE SAME CORPS..... ON THE OTHER HAND, JIM NABORS DID HIS BEST TO PROMOTE THE MARINES IN EVERY PUBLIC APPEARANCE AND THE MARINE CORPS APPRECIATED THIS.....

In the episode where Gomer loses his job and stays with the Taylor's. His ol' customers come at night. There begins a whole slew of noisy talking from the neighbors complaining, and one of those is, "I'm gonna call the POLICE !!!!" Complaining to the Sherrif he's gonna call the police.......just don't make sense? But I wouldn't have it any other way........ - -Jr Nope "There ain't been a trout in there in 30 years!" __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
