We’re checking out the Mayberry Confidential story by Jim Clark that was in the 2011 edition of the Surry Arts Council’s publication.
Jim Clark is the Presiding Goober of The Andy Griffith Show Rerun Watchers Club and nobody can capture the spirit of Mayberry like Jim. His story called “Mayberry Rockin’ for the Ages” is a wonderful example of what Dr. Harrison Everett Breen was trying to teach us all in “Sermon for Today.” Slow down…..what’s your hurry?
I hope you’ll find a rockin’ chair to sit in and visit with family and friends. Those relationships…they’re what Mayberry is about. Don’t let them pass you by.
Like Andy said at the close of “Return to Mayberry,” “To good friends.”

I’ve had fun the last several weeks talking about Mayberry Days, Jack Dodson, The Ghost and Mr. Chicken and about Two Chairs No Waiting. Now it’s time to hear from you!
We have several written comments from listeners as well as a voice mail so we get to hear what you think about what’s been happening here in Mayberry.
As I so often say, I’d love to hear from you! You can be part of the show by leaving me a note or, hopefully, by you leaving a voice mail so we can really “hear” from you.

There was so much information about the connections between Mayberry and The Ghost and Mr. Chicken (TGAMC) that it took two episodes of the podcast to cover it all and part 2 is one of the longest episodes ever of Two Chairs No Waiting to fit it all in.
There are about 19 TAGS/TGAMC connections that our crack research staff..okay it was just me but it sounds better to say it was a staff…was able to find.
I hope you’ll enjoy audio clips from TGAMC and the loads of Mayberry fun in this episode of the podcast.

Set in Rachel Kansas, The Ghost and Mr. Chicken is one of my favorite Don Knotts movies. That could be because so many folks from Mayberry showed up in this, Mr. Knotts first movie after leaving The Andy Griffith Show.
The first is, of course, Don Knotts as Luther Heggs but lets start of with the behinds the scenes folk. The Ghost and Mr. Chicken was written by Jim Fritzell and Everett Greenbaum. Andy Griffith also helped re-write the script but is uncredited for his efforts.
That is only the beginning of the connections and fun trivia related to Mayberry and Don Knotts first movie following The Andy Griffith Show. Turns out there was so much that this will be the first of two episodes of Two Chairs No Waiting that we’ll do on The Ghost and Mr. Chicken.

Jack Dodson is best remembered for is role of Howard Sprague on the Andy Griffith Show but he was more than that. He liked camping, was a fan of boxing, Spencer Tracy movies, and he attended Carnegie Tech (Carnegie Mellon University as it’s known now).
I got a wonderful surprise back in 2006 when Scott Helmandollar wrote to me and shared a few photos his father had taken back in the mid-1950’s.
Let’s visit our Mayberry friends and learn more about Jack Dodson and Howard Sprague.
