***Millie was in, though of course later she became Sam's girlfriend on 
Mayberry RFD.  I always wondered how Howard dealt with that, but I don't 
remember anything being said about it.  Has anyone else seen where this was 
discussed??***
 
I heard Howard mention it in one of the earliest "Mayberry RFD" episodes.  He 
didn't go into detail on who broke up with who or whether it was mutual or if 
any issue came up, just that "it worked out better with Sam" and he was okay 
with it and happy for them.  That says a lot about Howard, because I don't 
think I could have handled it that well, seeing an ex girlfriend constantly 
holding hands with one of my best friends who hangs out with me on a regular 
basis.
 
I'm surprised they never married off Howard, on either show.  I've mentioned 
recently (along with a few others) that it would have been fun to see Goober 
date more often as well.  But romantic storylines apparently weren't as big in 
the 1960s as they are in the post-"Cheers" era.
