Two Chairs No Waiting
Have you heard of The Taylor Home Inn? It’s a bed and breakfast located near Clear Lake, WI owned and operated by fans of The Andy Griffith Show Dave & Marsha Scheuermann. They invite folks to step back in time for a visit to Andy Taylor’s home.
You will not believe how much the fireplace looks like Andy Taylor’s. That alone is enough to make the trip but there is so much more. We find out how they met and what drove them to build and share this wonderful home with others in part 1 of our interview.
Please tell folks about our show and don’t forget to share some comments or ask a question or two on the iMayberry.com/podcasts website or by using the contact information given in the podcast. I would love to have you be a part the show.

Two Chairs No Waiting
Do you remember the story about Myray Lambert? No…not Myra Koontz, that’s a completely different story. I’m talking about the “news” Opie and Howie were sharing in the original version of “The Mayberry Sun.”
Frequent listeners will remember that in episode #36 of Two Chairs No Waiting we were discussing “the bomb” comment made in on TAGS episode “Opie’s Newspaper.” (Feel free to pause and go back to give#36 a listen if you missed it.)
While researching that comment, I was re-reading Neal Brower‘s wonderful book Mayberry 101 and ran across a nice insight for fan of The Andy Griffith Show and thought it was something you’d want to know or be reminded of if you have Neal’s book.
The quote I read is found on page 427 Mayberry 101: Behind The Scenes of a TV Classic by Neal Brower | John F. Blair publisher
———————–
Q. Were there any TAGS scripts which were written but never filmed?
A. Yes .Paul, I wrote one ..( I don’t know if other writers wrote any.) Our unfilmed episode was THE WANDERING MINSTREL, which I wrote with Ray Allen Saffian for the 1962-1963 season.. It featured a charming footloose guitar player we called “Wally Jordan.” ( based on an actual musician Andy had great respect for, Brownie Mcghee)
Andy had constantly spoken in praise of Brownie, so it was inevitable someone would write the story. We wrote the outline and then the fully completed script. Now the weird part. To this day nobody on TAGS can give a reason why it wasn’t filmed. It’s still a mystery.
If you’d like to read the script, it is printed in its entirety in Richard Kelly’s seminal book THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW .. Pickled Tink to hear from you. Harvey B

Two Chairs No Waiting
James Best is best remembered by most as Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane from “The Dukes of Hazzard” but fans of “The Andy Griffith Show” will remember him as guitar player Jim Lindsey. Mr. Best is a very kind person and someone that fans fall in love with even more following a personal meeting.
This interview was recorded on June 26, 1998.
Q. Who was playing the guitar for Jim Lindsey, was it really James Best?
A. James did NOT play his own songs. James can’t play a guitar. James has stated at reunion events that he thought Herb Ellis was the one doing the actual playing of the guitar in those episodes but James wasn’t certain.
Earle Hagen was the music director for The Andy Griffith Show and he himself told TAGSRWC’s own Paul Mulik that the person playing was Barney Kessel so that’s good enough for me. Earle ought to know.

Two Chairs No Waiting
In the episode Opie’s Newspaper when Barney mentions “It must be the bomb,” did you ever wonder what he meant? We’ll we’re gonna find out on this episode of Two Chairs No Waiting.
For those that don’t remember, Opie’s Newspape is where Opie takes his cue from the adults and spices up a penny newspaper he and his friend Howie publish with gossip he’s overheard. When Barney and the Taylors get a look at the new issue, they have to scramble to collect the copies before they are read by the rest of the town.
In the episode, Opie delivers the first edition of the “Mayberry Sun” to Andy and then to Barney at the courthouse. Opie reports that he’s having a hard time selling his paper so Barney and Andy try to help by telling him he needs to branch out in his coverage. Opie & Howie do just that and figure that the adults in town seem to enjoy the “Mayberry After Mid-night” section of the paper the most and set out to make their paper have that type content.
Just after Opie and Howie finish the first run of their revised paper, Opie delivers copies to Barney, Andy, and Aunt Bee in the Taylor’s kitchen at breakfast time. Opie leaves them with the paper and goes out to place free copies in everyone in Mayberry’s hands or, in most cases, front porch.
The “It must be the bomb” comment comes while they are reflecting on the heat.
