Aunt Bee makes a big fuss over revealing to the visiting pastor famed character actor Iam Wolfe that she is wearing a wig.In real life the actor himself is wearing a wig for many many years.talk about feeling hypocritical wear a hairpiece imagine the actor himself knowing he's been wearing one all along.just a funny observation. In my opinon and I say thiswith respect fun and conviction if I had to pick out the most goofey off beat one demensional one time character just passing thru the world of Mayberry hands down its got to be A Singer In Town.I laugh myself silly when I see that scene inside the Taylor home.someones at the door.In comes marching Clara Edwards the great Hope Summers and her nephew Ferdie.His name is in the ends credits but I get a laugh watching the young actor playing the nerdish Ferdie practically running in right behind his Aunt clara and its offbeat but funny and that goofey look those wide eyes and childlike whimsical smile that gullible look.He was only in a few scenes like later the hotel room.But his mere appearance adds credibilty to this classic series.Where they get these unforgettable memorable characters from walk ons to cameos to full blown parts its a stroke of genius on part of casting agents.Ferdie was the 60s verion of Steve Urkal from Family Matters.He's merely passing thru no more than that but he's so in tune to it all.. Classic characters from TAGS.This is Col Tims protege reject signing off.God bless.Tom Kessel [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ps Hope Summers by the way told me in 1972 that Andy Griffith was the nicest most giving performer she ever worked with.She marveled at how he single handedly was in full charge of the 8 year long series.And how he had a say in every facet and how he thought of others before himself giving credit to othersI totally concur.
