There is a new commercial airing right now that features the talents of both Mayberry deputies, Barney Fife (Don Knotts) and Warren Ferguson (Jack Burns). The ad, featuring the two crash test dummies with one voiced by Jack Burns, combines footage of Barney Fife spliced from a scene of TAGS blended with recent footage of the dummies. Warren idolized Barney Fife in 'The Legend of Barney Fife' and, today, voicing a "dummie", has no qualms about Barney issuing him a ticket for not wearing a seat belt. Jack Burns went through a little bitterness for a few years after his stint on TAGS ended. But as far as television pop-culture nostalgia goes, Burns didn't mind lending his voice for this commercial. P.S. On the 'Mayberry R.F.D.' on DVD tip, hang tight people. It's coming.
