Hey Folks, We started this series last week and I'm proud to continue this four part series with Neal Brower interviewing Bruce Bilson, assistant director of "The Andy Griffith Show" from 1960-63. Mr. Bilson has knowledge about TAGS and how it was made that I'm betting you have never heard. Mr. Bilson was there at the creation of the filming of opening credits and for those first several years developing the "feel" of Mayberry.
I recommend watching the video version of this podcast because the clips shown as part of what Mr. Bilson tells us adds a lot to the experience. This episode we hear about the laugh track, Andy & Don's chemistry, Ron Howard & Andy's relationship, Bob Sweeney (director), renewal of the series, General Foods, Andy's memorial bronze moccasin, and directing extras. Here's the link to the video version: https://youtu.be/5nLG1F28WjE and here's the link to the shownotes & audio version: http://imayberry.com/podcasts/2016/01/two-chairs-no-waiting-361-neal-brower-interviews-bruce-bilson-2011-part-2/ Part 3 comes out this evening at 8pm ET and you can find all of Neal's interviews here: Neal Brower on Two Chairs - http://imayberry.com/podcasts/tag/neal-brower/ --Allan _______________________________________________ WBMUTBB mailing list [email protected] http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
