I have a Barney Fife coffee mug -- "Mayberry's Finest," courtesy of my family in Virginia, and we quote Barney all the time, especially the rules at "The Rock." Be sure and watch Andy explain the Preamble to the Constitution. If you want a true lesson in life, watch "The Bully" and the episode when Opie shoots a mama bird with his slingshot. I have the DVD collection of the first three years of the Andy Griffith Show and I receive the Silver Bullet, an e-mail about the survivors of the show. Thanks for reminding me about Don Knotts, the greatest sidekick ever in television history. And you cannot watch this one about the dogs and the giraffes without sniffling. -- DeniseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20794947.post-70718977891512226142007-08-21T19:35:00.000-05:002007-08-21T19:35:00.000-05:00Speaking of comic genius, we shouldn't forget the ...Speaking of comic genius, we shouldn't forget the late Don Knotts.

And apparently, they were very, very good at their job because he can't keep a straight face to save his life.

I think it was set in a dry cleaner with one of those automated clothes carousels. The skit fell apart when the old man managed to get himself hooked on the carousel and going back and forth between on the carousel. Poor Harvey Korman couldn't keep his composure and was laughing so hard he was crying.

The more "adult" themes went right over my head at the time but now when I see those clips I laugh twice as hard.<BR/><BR/>SNORK! <BR/>"When one would sneeze, the other one's eyes would get real big!"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20794947.post-53613192641147623542007-08-20T21:47:00.000-05:002007-08-20T21:47:00.000-05:00I watched this segment not a week ago, and laughed...I watched this segment not a week ago, and laughed so hard, I was crying! I watched about five or six of the segment, and they are just as funny now as when I saw them the first time. Great call, Jeff! We must be on the same wavelength because, seriously, I just went to You Tube and watched five or six of the clips from the Carol Burnett show, especially the one where the horse poops on the stage! -- Denise<BR/><BR/>DeniseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
