Well I did not win a refrigerator, but I won a consolation prize in a publisher's clearinghouse sweepstakes and it is a set of stainless steel pots and pans with lifetime guarantee. I trust that I will not have to pay any taxes on it and I will not invite anyone over to see it maybe. ha ha

Emmy Schmaltz

In the episode featuring Steve Quincy called "One Punch Opie", Barney tells Andy to put on a dress and get into the comic strips and be another Emmy Schmaltz. Emmy Schmaltz was featured in the comic strip Moon Mullins. I think she was Moon's landlady, kinda like Mrs. Mendlebright. Moon Mullin

 To show that watching TAGS is generational, it's one of the few shows that my  80 year Mom will watch and although my 80 year old Dad won't watch TV at all anymore he still likes to talk about "Barney" (no, not the big purple guy)  and then I am a huge fan (of course, or I wouldn't be on here

Cartoon Voices

Ron Howard played the voice of the character Tom Colonic in the Fareley brothers' movie "Osmosis Jones". It is a part live action and part animation film, so I guess that counts because he was only in the animatied portions. I use this film in my anatomy & physiology classes to illustrate how the i

First Female in the Barbershop

I would think the first female to enter Floyd's Barber Shop would be Ellie Walker in Episode 19 "Mayberry on Record". I believe she comes in and listens to Andy and the boys playing their instruments. If there was someone before this I certainly can't recall. "One small step for Miss Ellie a

I'm not sure about Joanna Moore's singing (sounds like her though)but Elinor Donahue has told the story about her singing experience on the show. When she learned there would be singing in the episode she was very nervous. She'd never sung on camera before. She and Andy went into the studio wher

On the newsstands this week, is a copy of TV Guide which feature the top 50 Television families. Predictably there are some in the group that are far from Mayberry values, but I think the fact that the Taylors were selected is a tribute to our favorite show. I believe they were selected #18, whic
