"Of course, Shorty, but do you feel TAGS is unique in this way? There were movies back then, not to say years before then. It's fun to notice and talk about, more fun to be sure than seeing all the same episodes cycling over and over and over…"

The Mail Slot
Started on Wednesday 0 Replies 0 Likes
This has come up before. Seems in almost every episode the mail slot is there in the door. I have tried to keep track, and in at least one show, the handyman, the slot is gone, and George, the…Continue

In two episodes there's an old Ford car, dull and unpolished, looks like a 1951. In a Malcolm Merriweather show, he rides up on his bike and the car is parked in Andy's driveway. In another, Barney…Continue

Shorty Cox replied to Gary W. Burg's discussion Gold Shipment This-N-That"Let me preface the following by saying, and it has been said before, back in the 60’s when TAGS was being created, those creating the show had no thoughts that TAGS would have such a following 50+ years later. They also, had no knowledge that…"

Yes, trivia and inconsistencies...TriviaThis is the only episode of TAGS where all three Howard men appear: Rance, Ron and Clint.Mayberry is thought to be based on Griffith's hometown of Mount Airy, NC. Fort Knox plays a central role in this episode, and the granite used to construct Fort Knox came from a quarry in Mount Airy.The seven million dollars that the truck is carrying is equivalent to $56,365,200 in 2017.In…See More
Gary W. Burg posted a discussionThe Mail Slot
This has come up before. Seems in almost every episode the mail slot is there in the door. I have tried to keep track, and in at least one show, the handyman, the slot is gone, and George, the mailman walks in and hands the mail to Andy. In another show, I believe, Barney goes to the post office to get the mail. Simply another inconsistency. In the interest of our collective mental health, it may be best if we just stop following minutia. Or is it all too much fun?See More
Gary W. Burg replied to Gary W. Burg's discussion Mystery Car"Spiffy? Excuse please, but I keep track of this word, and am almost amazed when someone young(er) uses it."
Gary W. Burg replied to Gary W. Burg's discussion Mystery Car"I believe I have it in mind. It's in the Opie's newspaper show. Andy says he has the duty, then Barney says he has to return a car. It's the show where they leave young Opie alone in the house to look for the edition Opie tossed in…"
Shorty Cox replied to Gary W. Burg's discussion Mystery Car"Another car mystery. When Barney leaves the courthouse during inventory to get Chili-cheese burgers and returns with the "fun girls" that he has agreed to take home to Mt. Pilot, it beckons the question, how did they get to Mayberry…"
Shorty Cox replied to Gary W. Burg's discussion Mystery Car"I was WRONG. I just watched the "TV or Not TV" episode and it is not the episode Barney makes the statement as he is leaving the Taylor house "I've got to return Goober's car". Barney is walking in that…"
Gary W. Burg replied to Gary W. Burg's discussion Mystery Car"Yes, Shorty, at least one too many cars. In the 'sode where the quiet man's wife has a baby, Andy and Barney arrive at the man's house separately, implying there was more than just the patrol car. And whose car was featured in the…"
Gary W. Burg replied to Gary W. Burg's discussion Mystery Car"Yes, the Chevy, right. Almost every vehicle was a Ford product."
Shorty Cox replied to Gary W. Burg's discussion Mystery Car"In many episodes there is a Volkswagon Bug and '59 Chevy in the background. "
Shorty Cox replied to Gary W. Burg's discussion Mystery Car"Gosh, I've got my "thanking bucket" out and going to "take a thank under there" about this. I think I recall Barney driving up in the car you are referring to and parking in front of the Taylor house in the…"
Gary W. Burg replied to Gary W. Burg's discussion Were There TWO Reunion Episodes?"When Barney talked about snow cones, Andy said he was 35. When we do the math, 1948 is a better bet for a graduation year."
Gary W. Burg replied to Gary W. Burg's discussion Were There TWO Reunion Episodes?"Thanks and a tip of the hat to you. You point out an inconsistency that's actually a contradiction. By the way, I'm taking this opportunity to name the staff member responsible for continuity: Hazel Hall."
