Two Chairs No Waiting

Episode of Two Chairs No Waiting is the third of our four part interview with George Lindsey .  Continued with comments about my meeting Mr. Lindsey for the second time at a bookstore only about 5 days after my first meeting with him.

This is part 3 of a four part interview with George Lindsey.

- Notes on Interview Part 3
* George talks about areas of his carrier other than TAGS
* George taught school in Hazel Green, AL
* In TV you were expected to know your lines and be on-time
* Andy threw “Goober” in the lake.

The “Lake” George was thrown in was known as “Tarzan” lake where they filmed the Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan films of the 1940′s.
* Located across Ballona Creek from the main 40 Acres backlot was a small jungle and lake set which was prominently featured in RKO’s Tarzan films of the 1940′s (from The Andy Griffith Show)
