I started a thread on this on TOS.  But this ranks in the top 3 sitcoms of all time in my book.  I’m not going to make my case again.  Either you get it or you don’t.  Watching “The Big House” right n

Love this show. One of the best imho is early on when Opie shoots a mamma bird and then raises the chicks. Upon their release he says ( paraphrasing) The cage sure looks empty pa Andy: yeah

Check out "A Face in the Crowd." It was after No Time for Sergeants and before the Andy Griffith Show. He plays a degenerate guitar picker named Lonesome Rhodes, who puts on a folksy front but is a da

RIP Thelma Lou

 

Oh wow, just seeing this now.  She did a lot of appearances in Mt. Airy, NC, which is what Mayberry was based on, and has basically become a tribute to the AGS.  Barney definitely stepped up in class when he landed her.  Ms. Rosemary and the other broad he dated prior to Thelma Lou were chopped liver compared to TL.

Did we ever get to see Juanita down at the diner? He was always on the phone with her.

Adam 12 is on one of the poors channels now, and Helen Crump with orange hair is Pete Malloy's date to the police banquet were Reed is getting a medal. They're all sitting with the other wives and GFs. It just doesn't seem like a fit, she looks more she should be his mom.

The next show that followed must be the first one, where rookie Reed is being assigned to be Malloy's partner, and Pete is acting like kind of a dick.

Yes, it appears Helen Crump killed Adam 12.

Did they ever have a Christmas episode? I can’t recall one which seems a little odd. 

Oh yeah Ben Weaver makes Andy arrest Sam for bootlegging, so they move Christmas to the courthouse. Ben finally gets himself arrested so he can get a Xmas blow job from Ellie the female druggist, and local meth dealer.

So yesterday, Aunt Bee was pretending that the butter and egg guy was slipping her the sausage.

Anyway, in the scene where Andy invites her to go out with he and Helen, and she says "I have a date", I'm almost certain that the paper that Andy was reading was from Mt. Airy, not Mayberry.

This episode is on TVLand now. And I just realized there's another interesting bit of trivia from the same show. Juanita's last name is Beasley. Andy found her in Barney's note where he wrote down her phone number, which was also spoken out loud.

It's the escaped women prisoner episode.  Floyd sitting on the couch eating the banana is one of the funniest scenes ever.  That stupid smile vs. Barney being all pissed off. 

  • This is the last appearance of Howard McNear (Floyd the Barber) before the actor suffered a stroke and left the show. He would return in season four but his character would be very different, nearly immobile from the damage caused by the stroke. He stayed until the end of season 7 (Goober's Contest), and this episode serves as his last main character role.
