"The Andy Griffith Show Reunion"
This link is for a show I don't recall ever seeing or even hearing about - it was called "The Andy Griffith Show Reunion", and was on the TLC Channel in 1993. The quality of this video isn't the best, and some parts have been clipped, but it's well worth watching anyway. Andy was the Executive Producer. The ending is one that I think all TAGS fans will enjoy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZv9Dxa3jNs JOE from G.I. <https://metv.com/stories/tatum-oneal-perfectly-described-the-allure-of-her-mother-joanna-moore-of-the-andy-griffith-show> ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.wbmutbb.com/

Mayberry Reunion on Perry Mason
Watched Perry Mason episode with a Mayberry reunion of sorts, in a murderous manner Sue Ane Langdon (Nurse Mary) who gets kilt early on, Stuart Erwin (Tom Silby) who did the killing, Dan Tobin (Gentleman Dan Caldwell) a questionable son of a gun, and Willis Bouchey (Charlie or Hey Chuck O'Malley) judging it all. And to top it off was Lassie's mama June Lockart (94 years young now) who gets blamed. I think Lassie would have done well in Mayberry, could have explained to Goober that dogs can't talk. Perry Masons have a lot of moving parts. Harriet, the chicken thief, who never shows up in old shows. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.wbmutbb.com/
Class Reunion
I had the wonderful experience of attending my 55-year high school reunion. I attended a small school or our class was a very close-knit group. It was great to see so many friends from my growing up years. However, it was a bittersweet night as we last a number of classmates since our last reunion five years ago. However, unlike Barney and Andy, I did not have to deal with any of my former high school sweethearts. I wasn't worried about breaking up any marriages and I didn't have to spend time trying to remember who was who. I was the entertainment again so I created a Remembering 1964 nostalgic Powerpoint program. It went over very well as I brought back a lot of memories from our wonderful years together.

Reunion Follow Up
I spent my Sunday afternoon reflecting upon my class reunion on Saturday. Those of us there talked a lot about where we came from. We all grew up in the small town of under 1000 people and with the exception of one or two classmates we all came from very modest families with one parent working and we all lived in very simple older homes with very few luxuries. So I decided it would be fun to use the marvels of the inter net and take a look at the kinds of homes my classmates now live in. So through the help of Google Earth I took a tour of all their homes which took me all over this great country of ours. I was just amazed and really taken aback at how most of my classmates are now living. With the except of a few, most are living in very nice large homes in very nice neighborhoods. Some were living in homes valued at over a half million dollars. One classmate living in one of these luxurious homes in Arizona never lived in anything except a rental apartment while we were growing up. How far we have all come in my generation. I sometimes think I focus too much on TAGS and the simplistic life that we see in our beloved Mayberry. But when I see the affluence that is found among all my former humble friends of my youth, I am so thankful that I can return to Mayberry whenever I want so I can relive some of those very special times that will be forever so important to me. -- Ken Anderson The Mayberry Guru 2906 May Street Eau Claire, Wisconsin 54701 www.themayberryguru.com www.mayberryreflections.com ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Reunion
Well my friends, I managed to survive a very emotionally packed night at my 50 year high school reunion. So much fun reliving old times with old friends whom I have known since I was 6 years old. A few tears were even shed by this overemotional guy. We were a class of 81 and we have lost only 6 thus far, so we have indeed been very blessed in that regard. The group just loved my "Special Reunion Mayberry Presentation " I did. I received a standing ovation and so many wonderful comments following. Some of the people there had not watched a TAGS episode since it was on TV back in its hay day. They especially enjoyed the clip of Barney and Ramona's reunion and that beautiful quote "The tears on my pillow bespeak the pain in my heart". We had kept my presentation a secret and the looks I received when I arrived in full uniform and gun belt was precious. But word soon spread that I was not a real policeman and that was when the fun began. Time for me to purchase a new laptop. I was unable to load any of my videos and music clips at first and I was just sick as it would have ruined the entire evening. However, I was able to get off by myself and do some work and was finally able to get things going. Good thing I tested everything out when I got there and before I was to begin. Sometimes those electronal marvels can be a real pain in the patoot. I noticed the cord they provided had thin wires so I suspect that was the problem. -- Ken Anderson The Mayberry Guru 2906 May Street Eau Claire, Wisconsin 54701 www.themayberryguru.com www.mayberryreflections.com ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
High School Reunion
Ken and friends If I may jump in on your subject of High School Class reunions I just attended my 40 year. I received a nice surprised about 3 weeks before the event when I was asked to Emcee the evening. I guess they remembered me being a big joker, and the non-bashful type. In my opening remarks I did refer to our favorite show. I told them that I did class reunion research by studying the Andy Griffith Show episodes about class reunions, which got a little bit of a chuckle. I told them that I understood the main motivations for having and attending such reunions..to see "who made it and who didn't". Then I went on to speculate what that meant. I asked who didn't make it?..perhaps an individual who got arrested for stealing pop bottles shortly after high school, but I really focused on "who made it" I went on to list these categories and recognize people who fit them. Those who served in the military Those who went into health care...and the benefit they had provided to mankind Those who were preachers, teachers and social workers..and how they had really made a positive impact on society. Then I went on to try to draw everyone in Those who had raised children those who had been faithful to a loved one Those who had cared for their parents or other elders Those who served their Church, Charity or community group You have all made it, I said, by your positive contributions to society You have made it because you helped your home town..and your home team It was a great experience and seemed to really bring everyone together. I interjected lots of humor and memories (like Beasto Mareasto and Halcyon Winslow) so my conclusion..you CAN go back home again and celebrate..how everyone made it and perhaps just a few did not The Untrained Voice Joe Gritton--Class of 1974 ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Upcoming Class Reunion
Next Saturday I will be attending my 50 year class reunion. I am so excited to return home and spend time with people that I grew up with. I will be having the privilege of giving my Mayberry Power Point presentation to my classmates. I have spent a lot of time this week tweaking it with old school photos and music and video clips that will really personalize it for my old friends. This morning I received the list of those attending. Needless to say I was very disappointed to find out that my former high school girlfriend will not be there. Oh well, at least I won't have to worry about breaking up a marriage. But it was sad to discover that less than half our class will be coming. Many of my former really good friends have never attended any of our reunions every five years. It seems they were so ready to forget where they had come from. A number of them still live in our hometown, yet they choose not to attend the reunion. As for me, I treasure the memories of my childhood and youth and the small town where I once lived as I realize how important they were in making me the person I am today. I think those who will not be there are missing so much. I realize one cannot turn back the clock, but I feel it is such a shame to miss opportunities to spend time with old friends. I just hope I don't break down and cry during my presentation. Us Andersons are so sensitive.

Class Reunion
I just finished watching one of my favorite episodes, "The Class Reunion". It is one of my favorites as I can identify with Andy so much when he and Sharon are debating about what size fish they wanted to be. When I began my teaching career in 1967 I made a very conscious decision that I would never teach in a large town. Growing up in a small village of 560 people I knew that I wanted to spend my life in that type of setting. My brother and sister, however, could not wait to move out of our "hick town" and neither was ever to return to a small town. I, on the other hand, spend my 36 years of teaching in small towns. Although I taught in four different towns, none was larger than 1000 people. Like Andy, I found what I wanted in small towns and I did not need to move to a big city in order to find what I already had. I loved knowing all the people in town. I loved stopping in at the small diners and having coffee with my friends and neighbors. I enjoyed so much going to church on Sunday mornings and sitting among my neighbors and students. I enjoyed the small town festivals, the bizarres ( some with bingo ) and I especially loved sitting on my front lawn and greeting everyone who walked by. Our car show and parade season has begun and we are getting many invitations to attend various events. Our number one consideration when we decide whether or not to accept, is how big is the town. We have turned down some events at large towns and cities in order to attend a small town festival in a town of 500 people. But that is just who I am. I have nothing against larger towns. Eau Claire is almost 70,000 and it is a great place to live. But my heart is still in the small towns everywhere. At least when I dine out in small towns I don't have to point to the items on my menus hoping to learn a couple of new words. -- Ken Anderson The Mayberry Guru 2906 May Street Eau Claire, Wisconsin 54701 www.mayberryreflections.com ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

Andy and Barney Coming Home from their Reunion
Regarding Andy and Barney getting home from their class reunion when it was light out, I have a theory on that. Me thinks that after Andy took Helen home he and Barney went over to Yancy and checked out the Gigolo Club and they were just getting home the next morning. After all their class reunion only had fruit punch to drink and even though a sax was added to the band, the music still was not what I would call swinging. As a side note, I always thought it would have been hilarious if Otis would have come to the reunion and spiked the punch like he did at the courthouse. That certainly would have made an interesting episode. Or seeing a class reunion is a special occasion, perhaps the Morrison sisters could have provided the beverage for the reunion. -- Ken Anderson The Mayberry Guru 2906 May Street Eau Claire, Wisconsin 54701 www.mayberryreflections.com ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/

Class Reunion
It is a slow Saturday morning, so I decided to flip over to TVLand in the hopes that Andy might be on. Imagine my surprise when TVLand was showing some reality show called "First Love, Second Chance". The premise is that high school sweethearts are reunited after 30 years or so. So I kept on watching to see if they would have Sharon DeSpain and Andrew Taylor on the show. No such luck, just a lot of people I did not know.

Class Reunion
This past weekend I went to my High School Class Reunion. As I was preparing to go, I, of course, thought about the Reunion episodes on our favorite show. So I got out my yearbook (fortunately my wife didn't donate it to a disease drive). I made sure there were no notes about the tears on my pillow. I took a refresher course on names and faces..although after 35 years, surprisingly we looked a little different. I kept it handy all night to look up people I did not remember..like the Ralph Haynes, Nate Bracey's or Edna Thoges of the my class. I was disappointed when I got there, and there was no live band with a saxophone player. Also no punch or classmate bartender..but they did serve a nice meal and had good waitresses. (No Cha cha cha either) The main thing I was looking for, of course, was to find out "who made it and who didn't." Sadly those "who didn't" don't tend to go to events like reunions where they are reminded of those "who did." The nice thing though is, after about 35 years..nobody cares. We just like to see each other happy. We all grieved together one who had passed, and all prayed together for a couple who had a child who was badly hurt. At this point in life, people are just people. We all had to put on our glasses to read the fine print in the yearbook (and not select the name with the wrong picture) I took a picture of my family so I didn't have to tell everyone "My wife and I have two boys AND a girl". There were some single and some divorced there, but I don't know of any long lost lovers looking to rekindle that old flame. Perhaps there were a few pondering what if? What if they had started a different relationship..but I think we were all happy with where we ended up, and who we married. I was surprised to learn that about 40% of the class stayed right there in our Little Mayberry-like community. (like Andy) Those folks liked seeing us out-of-towners, but I cherished seeing them all. Something I realized was: that no matter where you go, what esquire clubs you belong to or what Walnut Hills Country Club you belong too...you are always still a member of your graduating class. Everyone is equal in that regard. All the Ralph Haynes jocks, are long past their popular days, and sadly some do not live up to the inflated expectations. All of Ellen Browns that nature "had been so good to"...could only so far on good looks, and had to work and strive to succeed just like the rest of us. As you might guess, I was neither athletic or pretty...but I did write a pretty mean "Pickups and Splashes from Floor and pool." I was a sports editor of the newspaper and the yearbook..but I sure missed out on the Philomathian Society, Volleyball clean-up crew and Tin Foil drive. We enjoyed reminiscing about our Beasto Mareasto's and Monsters of the second Floor. We talked about our equivalent to the Remshaw place, which we called the "Dead man's house"...and laughed about getting a car stuck out front, hubcaps deep. Maybe someone met a new Flame, I don't know...Maybe someone was broken-hearted over news that an old flame was off the market. I just drove home with pleasant memories and my school's fight song playing in my head just like Andy and Barney sung on the porch. You can go back in time..but you can go back and be with old friends, and talk about the old days. Never miss a chance to do that!

Reunion
Well, my high school reunion was indeed an emotional packed evening. I think I tried to put on airs and I failed miserably. I tried to pull off a Barney but it just didn't work. When they asked me where I was living, I told them that after I retired from teaching I bought myself a nice ranch. Well, not exactly a lie. We did buy a small three bedroom ranch on a corner lot. Then one of my former girlfriends came up to me. She had gained an enormous amount of weight and when she came up to me she whispered in my ear, "Just think Kenny, this all could have been yours." I was speechless and didn't know what to say. So I asked myself, "What would Barney do?" And then it came to me. Poetry. So I whispered in her ear, "Tubby tubby two by four, can't get through the kitchen door." I guess I should have chosen something different but that was just something I remembered from my childhood. I think I read it in one of those childish classics. Needless to say, the evening wasn't going too well. When we were finishing dinner they gave us dessert my wife asked what it was. It was Boston Cream Pie. Well, my wife said she had never heard of that, and of course I had to tell her that she had indeed heard of it as it was the new pie that came out after Boston became a city. But the night wasn't a total loss. I was chosen to be on the committee to help plan our 50th in 2014, and let me tell you it is going to be one real "bobby dazzler."

Mayberry Reunion
Hey you Mayberry Nuts--- In 2001 I had the great pleasure of going to nashville to a Mayberry Reunion. It was held at Opryland Hotel (?). I had a blast and was just wondering who else got to go. I finally made my hubby take me. We sat down to round tables where the waiters gave us cloth napkins. We were first served bologna and cheese cubes and my hubby said "if this is all I get for 75. dollars, you've had it." He was joking of course and we Did get more food than that. But after the dinner and show there was a meet and greet. What a great day it was to enjoy being close up to the TAGS actors. I know some got to go too. It was a great day in Mayberry.

Reunion Episode
Aunt Bee in Orlando sure is right on when she speaks about the reunion episode. I too have often wondered how little Barney and Andy must have stayed in contact seeing Barney was only in Raleigh. I had a best buddy growing up and we were about as close as two boys could be without being brothers. We even shared the same birthday. We rarely see each other now but when we do it is a very emotional time for both of us. But that years have certainly caused us to drift apart. After spending a few hours together the reality sets in that we are no longer the same person we once were. We each developed new relationships and new interests and try as we might we cannot ever recreate that special bond that we once had. Class reunions are really bittersweet as it is great to see old friends but the reality that they are now truly "old friends" can take its toll on the emotions. That final scene with Andy and Barney in the car singing the Mayberry School Song really gets to me every time. The same thing happens to me with the porch scene of Andy reading Barney's letter to Aunt Bee after he returns to Raleigh after his visit to Mayberry.

Part of the reason I went looking through my old tapes was so I could start setting aside material I would eventually like to transfer to DVD. I figure by the end of the year I will have a DVD recorder and this is at the top of my list of things to transfer. Meanwhile, if there are is a Andy Griffith Re-run Watchers club in the Triad (or outling area), I'd be happy to bring this and screen it for the members. I've been wanting to hook up with such a group for quite some time now, and this would be a great chance to do just that. The only thing is I don't know how many folks taped this when it originally aired, although I think CBS ony ran this the one time. Also, since some other folks have already brought up the subject, I have to admit that I too have been less than thrilled with TV Land's recent decision to start running reality shows and movies non-stop. Sadly, they seem to be getting decent ratings with the reality route. Sadder still, TV Land used to be one of the few cable channels I actually watched. When all the other channels were running junk, I used to be able to depend on TV Land to come through with something good. Not so these days. I am beginning to think it might just be better to invest in DVDs and just ditch cable altogether. At least with DVDs you don't have episodes hacked to bits and there are no commericals.

CLASS REUNION
Hi Mayberrians! For some reason, Class Reunion was, at first, the most difficult episode to get into. However, I now have a different opinion. Just watching Andy and that lady sit outside and talk about "why they didn't make it" made me think of how special high school friends really were. These were the people who knew you before you encountered all the problems of the real world. Also, watching Class Renuion made me think about my own 20th Class Reunion which will probably take place this year. Not sure if I will attend or if it would even be worth attending. Have any of you been to any of your class reunions? If you did, briefly tell what was the most memorable thing about it. Did you see old boyfriends/girlfriends? I guess I can say that Class Reunion is becomming one of my favorite episodes. I have watched this episode at least 3 times in the past week or two.

But rather for Barney abruptly getting over his grief because a woman he barely knew (Nettie) came on to him. It's shallow writing and it makes it seem as Thelma Lou and all those years together meant nothing to Barney. Doug Gibson Ogden, UT Yes sir, you have beat the game chapter I recognize that there are some huge TAGS fans in this area. Additionally, I also am a huge TAGS fans. So much so that when my children were still in their cribs (they are now 17 and about to enter college) I would play TAGS episodes recorded on cassette tapes instead of lullabies. I also remember from the forum rules that we are to keep things positive and discuss the better things regarding TAGS. However... First, let me say that I believe TAGS is the absolute best Television has to offer. Yet with that said, there is one TAGS episode that I will probably not be watching again. I happened to watch the above mentioned episode just last night on a local cable access channel and was very disappointed in the story line. I even knew what was going to happen and it still aggravated me. I will never understand why this episode was written as it was. The former gentleman's remarks are absolutely correct. The look on Barney's face at the very moment Thelma Lou introduces her husband is without a doubt one of the lowest moments of any TAGS scenes. When I need an uplifting moment, I turn to TAGS. This particular episode is not very uplifting. It is way to true to life. I'll be stickin' to my beloved B&W episodes. Enjoy the forum...

Re: Barney loses Thelma Lou at the high school reunion
I can't help it - I am partial to Nettie. Alberta Walker who played Nettie went on to play Flora Malherbe who was Goober's girlfriend in the color episodes. If Barn hadn't had a little chemistry with Nettie, then Goober might have never had Flora as a girlfriend! But I have to agree, it was a rather shallow flip flop for Barney Flora http://www.geocities.com/barbieintn/Alberta_Nelson_as_Flora.html > > Subject: Barney loses Thelma Lou at the high school reunion > > I watched that episode this week, and as much as I like TAGS, I've > always disliked that episode, not for the fact that Thelma Lou married > (frankly Barney deserved it for abandoning her).
