Re: Andy's long sleeves
Has anyone ever noticed that Andy always wears long sleeves? Good question. I've noticed (as I'm sure others have) that in season one and (I think) a few times in season two Andy has the sleeves of his uniform rolled up to expose his forearms. But I've hardly ever, or never, noticed that later in the series. Of course, I can't ever remember Barney's uniform sleeves rolled up, but that would go against his buttoned-down uniform appearance. Also, when they're out picnicking or whatever, Barney often wears his short-sleeved button-down shirt untucked, whereas Andy still seems to prefer a long-sleeved button-down, tucked-in, without the sleeves rolled up or anything. (Maybe some trained noticers can point out more details and what I've missed.) Maybe Barney is just a work hard, play hard type of guy. He likes to look neat in his uniform around the office, or with the old salt-and-pepper at a dance, but when he's bachin' it at Mrs. Mendlebright's or at a picnic he takes it easy with the dress. Andy's style of dress doesn't fluctuate as much; his favorite garb for a casual date seems to be his shirt (with or without tie) and sweater vest, and he only wears the blue suit on more formal occasions. A question for the lucky ones who have seen Mayberry RFD: what does Andy wear in his wedding to Helen?

re: Andy's Long Sleeves
? Has anyone ever noticed that Andy always wears long sleeves? I was watching Bargain Day last night and the scene where Aunt Bee was on the back porch sitting with the freezer and Opie comes outside without a shirt on (naked savage!) because it is SO HOT, Andy has long sleeves on. Several times during this episode they mention how hot it is. I also noticed on other episodes where the hot weather is mentioned that he always wears long sleeves. I guess maybe they didn't have summer winter uniforms back then. I thought this was particularly strange in the episode where Andy and Floyd were sitting on the bench talking about how hot it is, and then get into the Calvin Coolidge controversey. Floyd says it's 92 degrees, but he's sitting there in the sun with his barber's jacket on. Jethro Bodine, Double-Naught Spy Beverly Hills, CA? *** Get daily updates from Mayberry on Twitter!
