I watched "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken" on Svengoolie Saturday. I won't go into how many Mayberrians were in the movie or all Mayberry references...since these have been discussed on here before. But during the commercial breaks Svengoolie was making a lot of Mayberry comments. Such as Floyd being a bad barber and when Luther was dismissed from the newspaper Svengoolie said "Don't worry Barney there's an opening for a Deputy Sheriff in Mt. Pilot." But two things Svengoolie mentioned that really surprised me were that the Simon haunted house was once seen on the "Desperate Housewives" series. I have never watched that show so I have no idea whether he was making a joke or if he was serious. The other remark was that the three off camera comments "Atta boy, Luther!" made first while Luther was giving his speech after spending the night in the Haunted House, again in the court room at Luther's trial and lastly at the wedding were made by TAGS writer Everett Greenbaum.... The other thing I caught that I never did before was that there was a Mr. Kelsey....Wonder how he ever found his way out of those woods..... Anyone know if the above remarks are really facts. ???
