Last week we talked about the first spin-off from The Andy Griffith Show, Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C., and I thought it fitting to talk about the one that was more of a continuation of the original, Mayberry R.F.D.

During the eighth and final season of The Andy Griffith Show, widower farmer Sam Jones (played by Ken Berry) and his young son Mike (played by Buddy Foster) were introduced and became a part of the Mayberry family. They continued on into the Mayberry R.F.D. series as the focus and brought much of the town of Mayberry along with them. This series kept the town alive in our hearts and minds after Andy Taylor (Andy Griffith) moved away with Helen, whom he marries on the first episode of Mayberry R.F.D, and Opie.

I’m looking forward to the fact that the full series has been released on DVD and I can now be sure I’ve seen all the episodes.

Play some trivia with me and see how we do. Enjoy the show.

Welcome to episode 120 of the Mayberry Devotional entitled “Relax.”  Today I’ll be looking at season four, episode twenty-two of The Andy Griffith Show, “Andy’s Vacation”.  And I’ll also be looking at Scripture from Genesis 2:2.

“And on the seventh day God finished his work that he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work that he had done” (ESV)

Jim Nabors birthday is this week so I thought this would be a good time time to talk about the show that made him famous. Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. originally aired on the CBS television network from September 25, 1964, until May 2, 1969. The series was a spin-off of The Andy Griffith Show with the pilot episode airing as the fourth season finale on May 18, 1964.

Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. was also a major ratings hit, just as was it’s parent from Mayberry, never placing lower than tenth in the Nielsen ratings and ending its run as the second-highest-rated series in the United States.

We play some trivia and see how we do. I hope you enjoy the show.

Welcome to episode 119 of the Mayberry Devotional entitled “A Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing.”  Today I’ll be looking at season four, episode nineteen of The Andy Griffith Show, “The Shoplifters”.  And I’ll also be looking at Scripture from Matthew 7:21.

“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter.” (NASB)

In the last few weeks, we heard a flashback from “Floyd” from July 13, 2010 and then the first of our old time radio (OTR) “lost” episode from June 5, 2012 called “Mayberry After Mid-day.”

This week we get to hear the second OTR episode released for episode 500 of Two Chairs on October 16, 2018. The episode is called “The New Barber” was written by Joe Gritton and features Mayberry barber, Floyd Lawson, and door-to-door salesman, Bert Miller along with a few other Mayberry notables. Sit back and use your imagination to picture the goings on in Mayberry while you listen to this “old time radio” program.

These episodes were some of the hardest episodes I’ve ever done because of tall the sound effects, music, editing, voice acting (I do all the voices) and just putting the OTR show together. If you watch the video version of the episode you’ll see the credits at the end showing everyone involved in making “The New Barber.” I think you’ll find the credits funny. I had forgotten them so I laughed when putting this episode together.

I hope you enjoy the episode and it really makes you feel like you’re hearing a lost episode of The Andy Griffith Show.

Last week, we heard from “Floyd” who did a flashback to a time he and Bert Miller talked about going into business together. That was originally released on July 13, 2010 and was the first time I had done anything that reminded me of those old time radio (OTR) programs. It got me thinking about doing other episodes with Floyd & Bert that sound like “lost” OTR versions of The Andy Griffith Show.

It was June 5, 2012 (episode 191 & 192) before the first OTR “lost” episode was made. Writer and Two Chairs listener, Joe Gritton, provided me the script featuring Mayberry barber, Floyd Lawson, and door-to-door salesman, Bert Miller. A little over 4 years later, on July 5, 2016 (#384) I re-released the two episodes as a speical edition created to sound like an actual episode of The Andy Griffith Show from beginning to end with opening music and everything, no Two Chairs intro or anything.

“Mayberry After Mid-day” begins with Bert Miller walking down the sidewalk of Main Street heading from the Mayberry Grande toward the courthouse. As Bert nears Floyd’s barber shop, he slows down and considers sitting down for a rest on the bench outside the barber shop window but decides to head on inside. Join them now in Mayberry and hear what happens.

As a note, we lost Joe Gritton last year and I am so grateful and thankful to have these OTR episodes to remember and honor him. These type episodes are hard to do and take a long time to perform and edit together but they are some of my favorite Two Chairs episodes. We’ll have another OTR Mayberry episode next week so come back if you enjoy it.
