re: TVLand
I've felt for a long time that TV Land is looking for a younger audience, with Class Reunion and The Big 40 it looks like maybe mid 30 to 40 yr. I'm so tired of all those commercials for Class Reunion that I want to go up an alley and holler FISH!

danny thomas show
Does anyone know where I can pay for, beg, borrow,or steal a copy of the pilot episode of the Andy Grifrith show. The one that was on the Danny Thomas show? Also the first episode of the Mayberry RFD show where Andy and Helen are married? Also, thanks to whoever put up the you tube video of the pilot show with Andy holding court about the rented suit. It was great. Help thanks. Bob Purlear, NC ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
A message from the Mayor
My beloved folk of Mayberry.I am so glad to be back in our fair little town after a long deserved vacation from working hard for you dear people. It seems that Andrew and Deputy Fife have kept our little town in good order as usual. I am hearing rumors that past mayor Pike is wanting a recount of the last primary. I assure you that this is only a ploy to try to corrupt the vote. Glad to be back! Stoner...Roy Stoner ( a PERSONAL friend of the governor ) Hello , little Wendell!!! _ In a rush?

Re: TV Land
I'm so tired of all those commercials for Class Reunion that I want to go up an alley and holler FISH! Sam Drucker Drucker's General Store Hooterville Me too Sam! It is truly amazing to me how a channel can go down the tubes so fast. I try to have a live and let live philosophy, but I have no desire to know what a lesbian from high school 20 years ago is doing now, or any of the other numerous people on this show. I know way more about the show than I care to. MTV and VH1 came out with additional channels as their target audience aged. Perhaps TVLand or another company will debut a new channel with the older shows again. I have been postponing ordering the TAGS DVD sets, but no longer. I would also like to start ordering some DVDs from other great TV shows of the past (Lucy, TV westerns, etc). Does anyone have any suggestions for quality web sites to order from? ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

Who's coming to dinner
I don't think the Governor was invited for a meal at Andy's house. Nor was Thomas A. Moody, the guest of honor who ended being named Davis. Tracy Crawford the accused bank robber did not get the dinner ticket, and I don't think Mr. Dave the hobo was invited to dinner - only hedge trimming. Then there was Newton Monroe, the lady speeder, and Emmett's brother in law. (I think) Now Neil you're an attorney right? So you listened to the rules in the beginning??? Right? The question had the qualification No prisoners and I added no policemen. Newton Monroe, the Lady Speeder and I think Tracy Crawford were all prisoners...so they don't count (though Aunt Bee probably fixed them prison food) You're right about the others. Emmett's Bro-in-Law falls into the category, we noted yesterday--hosted by another family in Mayberry, such as Otis, Peggy, Thelma Lou. Governor??--one passed through quickly, the other had lady fingers and shrimp cocktail fixed by Aunt Bee and others. Good Noticing!!

Aunt Bee's Glasses
I don't think I ever saw Aunt Bee wear reading glasses either - even when she and Clara were repairing mildewed band uniforms. Maybe she just stopped wearing them around other people. As wonderful as she was, she did have a little vanity in her. I don't need to pay Doc Andrews $5 to tell me how old I am - and I'm not that old! (There was also the blond wig episode.) Hey- how many people in Mayberry wore glasses? I remember the Silby's that were being evicted except Sam ( is that his name? ) couldn't read the eviction notice because Andy lifted his glasses as a strategy to buy time to help the Silby's.

A younger crowd / RIP FIFE
I agree that tv land is trying to get a younger crowd in.. BUTwhen you throw a heap of goober peas at your true blue fans..who do you think you are? Maybe they should go sit in the supermarket so we know who the big cheese is? The shows they are selecting are SO Stuipid. thank goodness we have our trusty dvd players so we can take down your fishin pole and meet me at the fishing hole Someone sent me a comic strip of Don knotts after he had just passed away.

Aunt Bee's glasses, war bond and Halron P. Spruggs
In addition to Mayberry Goes Bankrupt episode, Aunt Bee also wore her reading glasses in The Ball Game episode where she and Opie are reading the article Howard wrote in the newspaper. For you math types out there, you calculate the value of Frank Myers' war bond for yourself as follows: $100 x (1.085)^100 = $349,119.27. That is 1.085 raised to the 100th power. Now here's some juicy trivia that should challenge even trained noticers out there. Who can name a scene or episode where the name Halron P. Spruggs is mentioned or seen?
