Thank you to those who supplied me with the search engine at mayberry.com, so
that I can check on the cast and guests.
Problem is, that search engine only lists names. I like to look at their acting
resumes. Since I am a trivia buff.
In the imdb.com listing for Opie's band episode, only three guest stars were
listed - including Kay Lenz (David Cassidy's old flame) - where on the show
there were 5 or 6.
I did check imdb's listing for the actor who played Clifford - no listing info.
Thanks again -- I'll just have to pay closer attention to the credits, despite
the fact that TV Land minimizes them so to advertise.

How about Green Acres stopping by, or passing through? Seems as though the
eccentricities of them, with the ones of Mayberry, would play off hysterically.
Imagine Gomer yelling 'citizens arree-eest!' chasing after Arnold?
Or Oliver having an intelligent conversation with Andy?
Lisa chatting with Aunt Bee?
Don't know the setting of Green Acres but it HAS to be in the general area of
Mayberry.
As to email addresses......if emails were audio, I'd choose the title song, or

Gretchen, according to Mayberry My Hometown, Clifford was played by Jim
Kidwell.
In the future, it would be best to leave off the ecclesiastical quotes

Not sure if it showed rain, but when the gold truck came through Mayberry,
the steets were wet and I seem to recall Gomer in a pancho or slicker
suit.
Good luck to you and yours.

"And if Hazel had any dialogue, she not only would have had to be paid, but
she would have gotten a screen credit and we would know her real name."
Not sure what the union rules were in the early sixties, but, I'm pretty sure
that now the rules say an actor can have up to six lines without being in the
credits.

Hello my fellow Mayberrians,
Haven't posted in here forever, but I do read everything
everyday.
Someone wondered why Thelma Lou was never at church. I
propose that
old Thel was in church. She actually is in the nursery
taking care of the little ones
down in the basement nursery. Matter of fact I further
propose that Thel is the
head of the nursery program on Sundays. Hope that
clears it up.

We know that Johnny Paul Jason was in church because Opie and him were playing
together right after they got
out of church in one episode. Opie was pulling horse hairs out of his suit.

Re: It made me curious as to which scenes and lines were written by
Andy himself.
Well, we don't know, because he didn't write any officially, but it's
well known that he and Don wrote most of the ones where they're sitting
on the porch talking about something entirely removed from the story
line - kind of like ad-libbing - and other such scenes. You can
usually tell the ones they wrote because as I say they have nothing to
do with the story, they're just stuck in there for humorous purposes.

Re: I assume Thelma Lou didn't attend w/Barney because she attended a

Didn't Barney say in one episode that he walks Thelma Lou to preachin'?
I always assumed he meant to All Souls parish.

Dear Miss Bea,
As a professionally trained noticer, I also enjoy seeing these repeat
characters. I noticed this week that one of the men on the jury with Aunt Bee
was also the professor who spoke in Mayberry and later was taken with her
because she was so much like his late wife. He was a frequent guest star on
lots of tv shows - some movies too.

It seems that many of the archived interviews were conducted years after TAGS
went off the air. I wonder if TAGS resembles the original Star Trek in that
regard, meaning that it was popular during its original airing, but didn't
develop a "following" until years later. I found the George Lindsey interview
interesting, but also noted many references to "buy my book" and when
commercialism enters into the equation, that is a disappointment. Regarding the
speculation of denominations and what faith the characters might have been, I
find it most important that the show encouraged religious (Christian) values
more so than identifying any particular denominations. Come to think of it, I
cannot recall any particular episodes where Andy and Helen attended church
together as a main storyline, and I have never seen the later episode when Andy
married Helen. Is that episode available for download?

Thelma Lou "Janet"
You know you are so right, calling me on this one below.
>>>Why was Thelma Lou kicked out of the choir between Barney and the
Choir and The Song Festers??<<<
>>>I do take exception to this one, Joe. Thelma Lou would never have
been kicked out of the choir<<<
I didn't think she got kicked out either, I was just trying to get some
attention to get folks to think about it. You listed some very logical
explanations for her not being still in the choir in the "The Song
Festers" Here are a couple more I thought of.
She dropped out due to embarrassment about Barney's singing.
She dropped out, encouraging Barney to do so also, for the good of the
choir. (but you just can't tell a bird to say chirp chirp).
And Marie..you are sooo right..Thelma Lou probably went to a different
church than the Taylor's (All Souls Church). Otherwise why would she
have spent time gluing covers back on Hymnbooks? Good Thought. Case
Closed.

I think we've almost covered the rains. It also rained the day before
Mrs. Wiley's Party according to Ramona and Ernest T. (He was right there
in it)
-----------------------------
I'm going over to the Funeral Home this afternoon. Mr. Schwamp has set
up a nice Organ Recital for Hazel. You're just supposed to come in,
grab a Root Beer and sit down without saying anything. Mr. Maxwell is
bringing his Tape Recorder. WLRB in Mt. Pilot is looking for a "standby
organist" for Ethel Page. Rumor has it she got some kind of skin
condition after she went on tour with Leonard Blush.
Don't worry about the rumor about a working Still out at O'Malley's
cabin. We're just trying to keep Barney away from the recital so he
doesn't burst out singing while Mr. Maxwell is recording and Hazel
starts playing ole 14A. John Masters will introduce each number with
just one word "Hazel"
What's a matter? Haven't you every seen Maberryians try to make a star
out of a local before?

If your coming over to the funeral home for the Hazel Recital, I forgot
one thing. There is no admission..but since its being taped, wait until
Mr. Schamp give you the nod (and smile) before coming in.
The sign out front where he normally lists the dearly departed will say
"come listen to music under the flowers"
