Took him like 25 years to seal the deal, so I dunno.....

Took her 25 years to seal the deal.....

Pretty sure Barney would cower though. Especially if women are involved

Cream Puff

Barney didn't like Thelma Lou mud 'rasslin over at Mt Pilot

Barn had to be doing something right to land that dime piece Thelma Lou.

Much better looking than Helen. Never did like her. She was always a prude!!!

I had to click because I couldn't figure out if he was a coaching candidate or if he had entered the transfer portal.

After reading the premise, it was much better than any coaching search thread.

He should have landed the lady druggist Ellie Walker!

Always thought she was Andy's best looking girlfriend, but in real life, she did not like him much.

I hoped he'd hook up with Peggy (mother of Tatum O'Neal).

Peggy was the best, but Andy was always at his worst in all of her episodes.

Thelma Lou, Ellie, and Opie are the last of the regulars that are still alive. Warren passed away in Hsnuary.

The first time I saw it, I thought, “Didn’t he already die?”

I honestly made this thread because I love good OL fashioned shows, without violence, racism, and all around bull crap. It’s so nice to see shows like this and be able to watch them without fear of someone getting offended. Wasn’t trying to be a prick by starting it.

I think Mayberry rap is a masterpiece. The Loafers did it very very well.

Another one that cracks me up is the Dick Van Dyke show. Laura was so cute, funny and hot!!!

 

[Firebirdparts]

Dick van Dyke was about comedians, and so I love the cast. Just love it. My favorite is Morey Amsterdam with his one-liners. I've seen every episode, so I kinda used it up.

Ernest T versus Barney would be worth the price of admission. My money w/b on Ernest T.

Earnest for the win. I agree

The guys that played Otis and Earnest T Bass did a lot of voice work on 60’s cartoons. Some of the big ones. They were on a Mayberry special about 25 years and started doing the voices. I will have to google the actors and find out which cartoons they worked on.

 

[Firebirdparts]

I will sit and watch some pretty stupid stuff, including "Clutch Cargo". Hal Smith (Otis the drunk) is every character in Clutch Cargo other than Clutch, Spinner, and whatever beautiful girl character is involved. I recently discovered another one called "space angel" which has even worse animation than Clutch. In that one, Hal Smith is one of the main characters. it is truly terrible and that's the most entertaining thing about it.

 

[Firebirdparts]

Oh, by the way, Earnest T Bass (Howard Morris) was on the Dick Van Dyke show. Directed it too. during the war, he was in an army entertainment outfit with Carl Reiner (who owned the show). So we went full circle.

If Ernest gets his rock, it’s no contest. He’s the best rock thrower in the whole county. Charlene didn’t know what she was missing out on

Allan Melvin was Fred Plummer (the market trash in street sweeper), hotel detective, army recruiter, Maude's stolen car scam sidekick, escpaed criminal, streetside vegetable vendor. Feel like I am missing one. And then went on as a butcher. Lots of jobs.

I think that’s everything. He played an escaped convict twice if I remember right. He was so good as a foil for Barney Fife.

He was in a lot of stuff back then.
