Burke on Mayberry #17 = Those Gossipin’ Men
Running time: 11:40
In this “The Andy Griffith Show” episode which originally aired on January 16, 1961, Aunt Bee teaches Andy a lesson after he ridicules the Mayberry women for being such terrible gossipers. Bee sets a trap to prove the men are just as bad by planting the seed of a rumor that ends up leading most of the Mayberry men to the hotel room of a mild-mannered shoe salesman. The men are convinced he is a talent scout for the fictitious TV show “Manhattan Show Time.” Be sure to visit www.BurkeOnMayberry.com to get the answer to this episode’s trivia question!
