Read more…Andy Taylor experienced a personality change as the series went on. As I mentioned earlier, in "Irresistible Andy" Andy acts like a person that the latter would try to calm down and say he was being silly. The horse trader displayed some behaviors

( I know we already had a thread like this, but I can't find it.)
I just saw Col. Harvey in "Timbuktu" with Victor Mature!
He was just the same. It was supposed to be a serious role but we laughed at every line. Now I wonder if that's the only way h
Read more…Just wondering, of all the TAGS episodes, is there one that you just can’t watch, and why?
We all know the colored episodes are difficult to watch. Believe it or not, the episode I can’t watch is the very first episode “The new housekeeper”. I know
Read more…As some of you know I am a 15 year old TAGS fan and I wonder how do you persuade someone to give the show a try and start watching and enjoying? More or less, how do you persuade a teenager my age to start watching the show? I mean I have talked to s

In that episode, Mrs. Leish brings the car to Mayberry from Mt. Pilot for Barney to look at and purchase. She made arrangements for he

I see that Mayberry RFD Season 1 will be for sale soon on Amazon. I plan on getting it. Mostly I want it cause I have watched the daylights out of TAGS - this can give me a break so when I can watch TAGS again there will be a little more newness. But
Read more…I watched the reunion show today for the first time in several years. At the end when Andy Taylor and Barney Fife were folding the flag, my eyes filled with liquid!!! Has this every happened to anyone else or am I just strange?
Read more…How would you rank the seasons from favorite to least favorite?
Contrary to many, I actually rank Season 7 in the top 3. Still #5 is my favorite, followed by #4. I rank them as
5,4,7,3,2, 6,8,1
I am not that much of a fan of #1. Andy's character is not
