TVLand Promo
who else agrees with me about the "Jail promo? After Laura Ingalls asks Paw "what's it like in jail?" we should see Barney saying "No more PB sandwiches, etc" It fits better than "Shakedown!" I don't recall the image used so maybe they chose "Shakedown!" b/c it was a close up of Barney or maybe b/c of the length. Still, the longer speech seems a better choice to me.

Re: Teri Garr
Teri Garr was in the eighth season episode, The Wedding. Goober asks her for a date to Howard's "bash" at his new "pad. She sits in the car at the filling station and just stares at him. Goober takes it for a no. I have often wondered if she had lines that were edited out just before the episode aired, since her name is listed in the credits.

RE: Barney Being Right
>>So then my thought went to other episodes when Barney was right about something. >>There must have been others. Does anyone know? >>Kind behind the eyes Here are the times I can think of that Barney was right.. In "The Horse Trader", Barney was right when he told Andy that it was wrong to make up stories about the cannon just to sell it. Andy listened and then practiced The Golden Rule. In "Barney and the Governor", Barney was right for 'tagging' the governor's car. "I'm no good." "You're good, you're good!" In "The Bank Job", Barney is right when he says that the bank is an easy target. He gets into trouble proving it, but he is correct. In "The Shoplifters", Barney is correct in saying that the little old lady was the shoplifter, even though she only had a Bible in her bag. Ben didn't believe him until they got outside.

Re: bathrooms in Mayberry

Andy Griffith, The Unlikely Movie Star...
Just popped up on Yahoo page... By MARTHA WAGGONER, Associated Press Writer RALEIGH, N.C. - At age 81, Andy Griffith has been discovered. Sure, he'll always be known as Sheriff Andy Taylor, the gentle father to son Opie and gunless lawman in Mayberry who dispensed a homegrown wisdom on the "The Andy Griffith Show." Or as the disheveled yet shrewd Atlanta defense lawyer Ben Matlock. But he's now a new type of star in the critically acclaimed film "Waitress." A supporting character in a movie starring Keri Russell as Jenna, a top-notch pie maker trying to leave her brutish husband, Griffith steals the show as the cranky owner of the diner where she works. "I'm glad to be back," Griffith said. "I loved working in the film, and I just thought it was actually wonderful." The movie was written and directed by Adrienne Shelly, who was found slain in her Manhattan home office not long after "Waitress" was accepted at the Sundance Film Festival. Griffith said that Shelly, who also stars in the film, "knew exactly what she wanted to hear." "She wanted me to be very firm, and she kept after me to be firm, be firm," Griffith said. "I said, 'I'M TRYING.' She said, 'That way.'" Griffith lives a fiercely private life with wife Cindi in the North Carolina Outer Banks town of Manteo. Until "Waitress," he hadn't appeared in a live- action film since 2001. But he said he got three scripts at once and chose "Waitress" for the quality of Shelly's writing and because Joe "was a good, pivotal part. Joe means a lot to this film." Producer Michael Roiff said he and Shelly couldn't believe their good fortune at landing Griffith for the role. Griffith was on the set for just four days of the 20-day shoot, but he didn't disappoint. "We were so excited about the performance he was delivering," Roiff said. "In the editing room, putting scenes together, she and I would just look at each other and think, 'How did we get so lucky? Who let this happen in our movie?' "Literally, on the set and in the editing room, there was a continuous process of looking at each other and breaking out in that wise, small smile and realizing we were working with one of the best out there." Critics agree, with The Wall Street Journal's Joe Morgenstern calling Griffith an "inspired" casting choice: "An octogenarian who looks his age, and looks like he's enjoying it, this comic virtuoso is as commanding as ever, but with a new dimension of restraint." Equally important to Griffith is the praise of his friends, including Oscar- winning director Ron Howard, who played Griffith's son, Opie, in "The Andy Griffith Show" which airs every day somewhere in the world, Griffith said. "Ron Howard called me a few mornings ago. He and his wife had seen it and he wanted to tell me how much he liked it. And he thought I was good in it, too," Griffith said. Griffith has been a success on stage for decades, starring in the Broadway and movie versions of "No Time for Sergeants" and in Elia Kazan's 1957 movie, "A Face in the Crowd," in which Griffith's character, the coarse Lonesome Rhodes, becomes a television star who mocks his fans off-air. When "The Andy Griffith Show" ended its eight-year run in 1968, it bowed out as the No. 1 show in television. It's a career that's brought Griffith plenty of accolades, including a Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2005. But the honor that Griffith mentions now is the collection of photographs from "Waitress" he received when he finished filming. After he spoke his last line, Shelly said, "This is Andy's last shot in the picture," Griffith recalled. "And there is a picture of her embracing me at that moment, and it's a wonderful picture. And when she said that, the whole company started applauding, all up and down the hall. It was like opening night at 'No Time for Sergeants,' which was a long time ago. That's been 50 years now." Griffith is still looking for work. Asked when he'll get a part in a Ron Howard blockbuster, Griffith chuckles again and mentions an earlier phone conversation with Howard. "And he said, 'Sometime, it will happen.' I look forward to it when it does happen. "At least Ronnie still knows that I'm a pretty good actor." ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Correcting myself before I get multiple corrected
>>>Harvey Bullock, our recently departed TAGS writer of classic episodes such a Opie the Birdman and The Haunted House also played (acted) as a Judge on Matlock. You'll have to look up his picture to recognize him, of course, since he did not appear on camera on our favorite show. Aunt Bee of Orlando is correct. Everett Greenbaum was the writer who played a Judge on Matlock..not Harvey Bullock. I mixed up those two wonderful writers. But I stand by Millie on Matlock--it was not Flora, or some other blonde. Thanks Aunt Bee for the timing of that answer. As soon as I saw it, I felt like Barney after he arrested the Hotel Detective...wrong person!!.

Rare Interview with Mr. Schwump
We have often discussed who Mr. Schwump really is and what he does, etc, so I managed to track him down and he granted me an exclusive interview. So hopefully this will finally answer all the question we have had. I always suspected that he held a position of respect in Mayberry because everyone referred to him as Mr. Schwump. So perhaps he is a retired teacher, banker,or other such important person. Ken: What is your full name? Mr. Schwump: Ken: Have you always been so quiet? Mr. Schwump: Ken: Just what kind of work did you do? Mr. Schwump: Ken: Have you lived in Mayberry all your life? Mr. Schwump: Ken: Tell me, Mr. Schwump, are you married? Mr. Schwump: Ken: Folks are wondering if you happened to buy your hairpiece from Newton Monroe? Mr. Schwump: Ken: Do you have anything else you would like to say? Mr. Schwump: There you have it friends. An exclusive interview with the very quiet, reticent, and mysterious Mr. Schwump. I should add that he did smile throughout the entire interview process and was very relaxed.

Harvey Bullock, our recently departed TAGS writer of classic episodes such a Opie the Birdman and The Haunted House also played (acted) as a Judge on Matlock.

Thith-ter! Thith-ter!
>>>Don't forget [Ronny Howard] also had a very memorable role in 1962's "The >>>Music Man" with Robert Preston and Shirley Jones (making two movies he's >>>done with her). And that makes me wonder if that inspired the episode >>>about the Mayberry band? Dixon >>> I doubt it, but Ronny's role as Winthrop Paroo was surely the inspiration behind the scene at the beginning of "Andy and Barney in the Big City" in which Barney asks him to say a tongue twister (it's difficult, because Opie is missing a few teeth). Opie stumbles through it the best he can, and then comes back with "If you think that'th thomethin', you thould hear me thing a thong!" --Paul Mulik ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Re: Laura Lee Hobbs courteous service.
This might be of no concern to anyone but me, but I do want to thank Laura Lee Hobbs for the courtesy she showed me in the Dime Store the other day. Laura Lee went out of her way to make sure that I was pleased with my purchase of a 50 count jacks and ball set that I was buying for my niece. Where I was quite content to buy the plain gray colored jacks, Laura Lee suggested that the multi-colored jacks might be a nicer choice. And you know what? She was right as can be! Quite a site to see my niece with her friends playing with her colored jacks. (I never knew kids could get so excited over "foursies" and "fivesies") Thank you, Laura Lee Hobbs. Thank you very much. It just goes to show you that with Laura Lee Hobbs and the Dime Store - "Quality Goes Hand in Hand"!
