Have you ever noticed how the good folks from Mayberry never spent time
chasing after the materialistic things in life. And in the few occasions
when they did, it usually brought unhappiness. Aunt Bee returned all her
expensive prizes she won in Hollywood because they were costing her the
friendship of so many people who were so dear to her. Whenever Howard got
the bug to change his appearance by wearing the latest clothes he soon
discovered that it wasn't the clothes that made him who he was. Aunt Bee and
Andy thought it would be great to buy that big white house out on the
highway, only to discover that there is no place like home. The writers of
TAGS hit on this theme very early when all the folks of Mayberry learned an
important lesson in "Mayberry Goes Hollywood." I really believe what makes
Mayberry such a place of endearment and why it so timeless is because of its
simplicity when it comes to addressing what is important in life.
"It isn't only the materialistic things that make a person rich. There's
love and friendship. Those can make a person rich too".
