Date: Mon, 15 Oct 2001 17:58:10 -0400 From: "Nathan Mylott" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Divorce. Something's just occurred to me while watching the episode in which Dud and Charlene get a temporary divorce - other than that one episode has divorce ever been mentioned on TAGS? There's been the single folk, which there seems to be more than the average, and the widows(ers) but no divorcees. The best to you n' yours. Barb I don't know if divorce was ever mentioned any other time, but does anyone know where I could get the beck of an owl? Just might come in handy! _Andrea ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 15 Oct 2001 19:59:35 -0500 From: Paul Mulik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: D-I-V-O-R-C-E >>>Something's just occured to me while watching the episode in which Dud and Charlene get a temporary divorce - other than that one episode has divorce ever been mentioned on TAGS? In "Opie's Fortune," we learn Lorraine and Howard Felcher are about to be divorced. Barney picks up this tidbit in the gossip column of the Mayberry Gazette. - --Paul ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 15 Oct 2001 19:40:47 -0500 From: Paul Mulik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: RTM >>>I noticed when I watched Return To Mayberry the town of Mayberry looked diffrent,was it filmed at another studio. Return to Mayberry was filmed in a real town -- Los Olivos, CA to be precise. It looks nothing at all like Mayberry, but it would have been VERY expensive to recreate the entire Mayberry backlot. The original lot, which was named 40 Acres, was bulldozed years ago, shortly after Mayberry RFD was cancelled. In RTM, the set designers did a pretty good job with the courthouse interior, but that's about the only place in the entire movie that looked even remotely familiar. - --Paul ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 15 Oct 2001 21:56:48 -0400 From: "Phil Fox" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Curious Paul- mixed up Columbia House I Think the folks at columbia house have been to the Morrison sisters, with Otis for national potato week cause my last tape "Mayberry Classics" listed on the back The Christmas Story, Ernest T. Bass joins the Army Dinner at eight The Education of Ernest T. Bass and when I viewed it, I saw Ernest T. bass joins the Army airdate Dec. 19, 1960 It actually aired Oct. 14, 1963 I think, at least it said that on the back cover. Malcolm at the cross roads Dinner at eight Education of Ernest T. Bass They should have put one more ETB episode instead of Dinner at eight and jest called it Ernest T. Bass. I jest wonder iffin maybe this has something to do with Usama Bin Laden and his terroristical band of rogues? Makes you wonder.

Return to Mayberry was filmed in and around Los Olivos, CA.

I assume it has something to do with advertising or something. Is there anywhere a body can get copies of complete shows ? Nearly all TV stations, TVLand included, cut out 3 or 4 minutes of every episode so they can show more commercials. Don't bother contacting the stations to complain - members have done this for YEARS, but the people in charge simply DO NOT CARE. There, I said it and I ain't takin' it back! For complete episodes, your best bet is to buy the TAGS VHS tapes currently being offered by Columbia House. At $20 apiece they are not cheap, but they are worth every penny. If you've got the cash to swing it, you can order all of them at once and save some money on the shipping costs. The quality of the tapes is excellent, and as far as I can tell the episodes are all 100% complete. So far 60 episodes are available, but Columbia House has informed me that if the tapes continue to sell well, they may eventually release all 249. Go to www.columbiahouse.com for more info. They offer LOTS of other classic TV shows besides TAGS. I'm also getting the Looney Tunes tapes (of course that's not a TV show, but they're listed in the TV category). - --Paul ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 15 Oct 2001 22:31:30 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Darlings (Dillards) << I was wondering about the musical group who plays the Darlings on tags.

I got the tape you mentioned, and it too had the "Thelma Lou" label on it. But it came in the correct box, which was labeled "Opie Grows Up". Looks like Newton Monroe has started working for Columbia House, huh?

I haven't seen the epilogue for that show either. I have noticed on the TVLand reruns, though, that when they do show the epilogue, they cut part of the show. Happens every time. I also noticed that on the Gold Truck episode when Rance Howard (and the other actor(s)) sit down they don't have their hats on. When Opie comes in (and the camera pans by them), they DO have their hats on. Then when Andy comes in, the hats are off again. Probably because of the one-camera show limitations. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2001 09:06:45 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V3 #311 I really enjoyed seeing all of the squad cars at Mayberry Days this year. Does anyone know if any of the original squad cars used on the show over the years still exist and if so where are they now? I would also like to know if anyone knows if anyone has ever built a home to resemble the Taylor home with it's great for sitting front porch? I saw a copy of the floor plan in a book one time that had floor plans of T.V. Families homes, but I am curious if anyone has ever tried to duplicate that home and if so where?

She gets the scoop on Bee's party for her long unseen cousin of failed big ventures, Bradford J. Taylor. then,later in the day,during "My Three Sons" whom should appear,but,our own Betty Lynn(Thelma Lou) playing Steve Douglas'secretary,and in the doghouse with her boyfriend. and , on this same lucky day, i saw Howard Sprague's henpecking mom(Mabel Anderson) as Darrin Stevens overbearing mother on "Bewitched"!! all this goes to show you that quality knows quality , and indeed it'sthe"actor of the man" (or in these cases,the woman)that made all the supporting and regular actors of TAGS such special characters in all our hearts. Best to your and yours, and hey to goober,Tom Silbey (i used to sign as Jubal Foster but i had forgotten just how plain mean he was and he beat everything, ya know that!) TUSCARARA!! ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 17 Oct 2001 00:02:00 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V3 #310 This is for nbrown333. I could be wrong, but I think that episode, where Andy was "necking" was with Ellie Walker. I think it was episode 22 (Cyrno Andy). It goes something like this...Ellie and Andy are sitting on the couch, the lights go off and they're (Andy and Ellie are making out). The lights go back on and Barney is on one side of the couch and Thelma Lou is on the other side. I guess Barney wasn't so "swave" (suave) back then like Gomer would say! Well, anyway, then Andy goes tell Thelma Lou how much Barney likes her, and she turns the situation around to make Ol' Barn jealous. Like I said I could be wrong, but it's the only episode, that I could think of that Andy would be necking in front of Barney.
