Re: Aunt Bee's Romance
I found 3 other episodes with less than 8 people. Season 3, Episode #71: Floyd, the Gay Deceiver had 7 people. Andy, Opie, Aunt Bee, Floyd, Madeline Grayson, and a man and woman on the street at the beginning. Season 1, Episode #23: Andy and Opie, Housekeepers had 6 1/2 people (not because Horatio was there). Andy, Opie, Aunt Bee, Bertha Edwards, Jimmy, a man on the street near the end, and an unidentified driver (that counts as a 1/2, right?) near the end. Season 2, Episode #56: The County Nurse had 6 people. Andy, Barney, Mary Simpson, Rafe Hollister, and a man and woman on the street at the beginning. Terrell McEntyre Burt and Squirt Chapter - Original Message - From: DAVID QUINN While I was watching the 5th season episode of "Aunt Bee's Romance" this morning, I noticed something unusual. During the whole show, only 8 actors total appear. Andy, Opie, Aunt Bee, Floyd, and Roger Hanover. All of the scenes except one take place at the Taylor home. In the one scene that takes place downtown, two men and one woman walk by, making a grand total of only 8 people in the whole show. I would be willing to bet that is the least number of actors in any show. Most of the shows have more than 8 people just walking around the streets. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

No more Andy Griffith show on TV Land ?? or any other channel in Lexington. :-( I protest! Don't think that there's ever been a time in my lifetime that Andy wasn't playing somewhere. Yup I have DVD's and VHS.it's just the principal of the thing. It's UNamerican. As Barney would say, we need to nip this in the bud..!! It's a sad day in Mayberry when you can't find TAGS on TV.

Size of Shows
Since we seem to have settled which Andy show had the least number of actors, how about guessing which show had the most actors? I will start off, and without cheating and going to look at all of the shows, I would probably guess that it might be "The Jinx". There were all the men in the barber shop at the start, and all of the people out at the lake in the middle, and then there was quite a crowd at the drawing for the television at the end. I think that would be my guess. Orville Hendricks - The Butter and Egg Man - Not much of a crowd around my homestead now a days. So many friends have gone on. _ Hotmail has tools for the New Busy.

My Pilgrimage
Last week I took a short vacation with my wife and daughter, spending two days in Asheville, North Carolina. The original plan was to spend Thursday touring the Biltmore mansion, but my wife had already been there twice and did'nt care to go again. I coerced them into making the pilgrimage to Mount Airy, about 2.5 hours northeast. My college-age daughter was not terribly excited, but suffered along anyway. Let me tell you, if you have never been to Mount Airy, you owe it to yourself to make the trip. Downtown Mount Airy is just the way I envisioned Mayberry. We ate lunch at the Snappy Lunch (had to have the porkchop sandwich!) and then visited Floyd's City Barber Shop next door. We shopped at a couple of the Mayberry theme shops on Main Street, and met the folks at Mayberry on Main who post here occasionally. We traveled down Main Street to see Wally's Service Station, and snapped a photo of a replica black-and-white squad car. We then stopped by to take a photo outside Andy's boyhood home. We ended our pilgrimage by a visit to the Andy Griffith Museum, where we met Emmett Forrest, Andy's boyhood friend. Emmett is a true gentleman, taking time to share his memories of Andy with all who visit. He even took a photo of us standing beside the Andy and Opie statue, which I'm glad to say has be restored to it's original state after its recent vandalizing. If you cannot go for Mayberry Days, you owe it to yourself to make at least a one-day visit to our hometown. It was a day I will never forget!

Replying to the post that TAGS was not longer on TVland. For some reason TAGS isn't on again until 3/27. I checked the schedule and TVland is not removing it from their schedule. In fact, it will be on for 2 solid hours on the 27th and 4 solid hours on the 28th. I was sweating there for a minute. It appears to be a keeper!

While watching the old Fred Astaire-Ginger Rogers movie "The Story of Vernon and Irene Castle" recently, I noticed Dick Elliott (our little fat mayor) in a brief role as a train conductor. What I found interesting was his line to Fred Astaire in reference to Ginger Rogers. He said, "Better kiss her. It's a long time till next Sunday." This was so similar to his also-brief scene in "It's a Wonderful Life" when he asked Jimmy Stewart something like, "Why don't you kiss her?" about Donna Reed. Also, I spotted a younger Delos Jewkes (Glenn Cripe of the Mayberry choir) as part of a cowboy choir in a short film from 1939 called "The Royal Rodeo."
