predicted that a half-century later, we'd still be glued to this show. Instead of being pestered by these goofs, why don't we forgive the producers and writers for them and just continue to enjoy their fun in the spirit in which they were produced? Mayberry forever, Michael Eury

Hidden gems in color episodes

My favorite lines from color episodes: "In Mayberry, there are three main forms of communication: telephone, telegraph, and tell Floyd." "Somebody blackballed Howard Sprague!" Michael Eury ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMU

Andy and Don

for Sheriff Andy Taylor or Deputy Barney Fife one iota -- in fact, it deepened it, because it made me realize that behind our beloved icons were two men who could rise above their human flaws to create "real" characters and an endearing show that outlived them and will outlive us all. Mi

Re: SHAZAM!

learned of the original Captain Marvel -- who was revived in late 1972 in a comic book titled SHAZAM! which was published, oddly enough, by DC Comics. Makes ya want to put a bucket over your head and thank, don't it? Michael Eury Concord, NC ___ WBMUTBB

Re: TAGS spinoffs and a Hooterville crossover

, but the show would feature a new cast (of course, with a next-generation Taylor, Fife, or Lawson included). Since that show's unlikely, I'll just throw a bucket over my head and thank about it for a spell... Michael Eury Concord, NC ___ WBMUTBB mailing list

Re: Favorite Season

emerged as a break-out character, and the season sported some of the run's best episodes: The Education of Ernest T. Bass, Barney's Uniform, and my all-time favorite, Three Wishes for Opie, to name a few. Michael Eury from my own private Mayberry, Concord, NC

Re: which Season to buy on DVD

the cast and the writing had solidified to sheer perfection. The actors were comfortable with their characters, and no one seemed to be acting -- by this point, Andy, Barney, Opie, et al. were real people. And it's the season with Three Wishes for Opie, my all-time favorite episode! Michael Eury
