Man in a Hurry
This episode has a mature quality all its own. Does an excellent job highlighting then-and-now aspects of life even these days, maybe especially these days. So many in a hurry contrasted to Mayberry's relaxed atmosphere. Mankind's priorities have cha

Speaking of Noticing...
In the new doctor episode, there was a pay phone on the wall in the drugstore. Looked like it had a rotary dial. Does this mean people could circumvent Sarah? And the mere idea of an AT&T operator in Mayberry boggles the brain.

Really Unreal

TVLand Uses Its Own Clock Sometimes
Unless you wear Gomer's bucket over your head, you doubtlessly are aware that TVLand broadcasts 36 minute episodes sometimes. I am uncertain, but nevertheless boldly and brazenly claim it does that simply to allow for more commercials, not for more
