This episode we’ll be digging into the second episode of The Andy Griffith Show, “The Manhunt.” The original Air Date: 1960/10/10. The writers are Jack Elinson and Charles Stewart. It was directed by Don Weis. We see Otis for the fist time and we here the phrase from Barney that, I believe, Mayberry fans may quote more than any other, “It’s Big!…..Ah, big ain’t the word for it.”

I make a correct from last weeks episode to clear up something that was once believed to be true but is now known to be a misconception. (During this episode I erroneously reported that a publicity photo of a young Frances Bavier is seen on the wall of the Taylor living room as Andy walks from the kitchen to the front door. It will be seen in several first season episodes. As pointed out by Randy Turner in his fantastic collection of essays, Mayberry Firsts, the picture is in fact a print of the painting Child With An Apple by the French artist of the 18th century Jean-Baptiste Greuze.)

We play some Mayberry Trivia to see how we can do, just for fun.

We’ll wrap up by hearing from some of you.

I’m going to try and do something different for a while. I’ve started to do this before but always faded off on it and didn’t follow through. We’re going to try and talk about one episode of The Andy Griffith Show most every week followed by some trivia and then talk about some cast birthdays.

That’s the plan but, we’ll see how well the plan survives the year. ha ha

This episode we start with the first episode of The Andy Griffith Show which is called The New Housekeeper. It first aired on October 3, 1960 and started everything that we still celebrate to this day.

NOTE: During this episode I erroneously reported that a publicity photo of a young Frances Bavier is seen on the wall of the Taylor living room as Andy walks from the kitchen to the front door. It will be seen in several first season episodes. As pointed out by Randy Turner in his fantastic collection of essays, Mayberry Firsts, the picture is in fact a print of the painting Child With An Apple by the French artist of the 18th century Jean-Baptiste Greuze.

We play some Mayberry Trivia to see how we can do, just for fun.

Finally, we check how which cast members have birthdays between January 1st and 19th to remember them all with smiles and joy.

I love The Andy Griffith Show and it doesn’t take much to get me talking about it to anyone who’ll listen. You may have noticed that after 514 podcast episodes so I’m not telling you much.

This week, Randy Turner got me watching The Andy Griffith Show episode “Guest of Honor” because of the report we’ll lead off with. Guest of Honor is a really fun episode with several quotes that are hard to forget. Let’s spend a few minutes walking through the episode and hear a few of the lines and segments that are etched in my memory.

Bonus: This week’s installment of This Week in Mayberry History by Randy Turner featuring Bill Hickman.

This episode we’ll be talking about the “Barney and the Choir” episode (#52) of TAGS from season two.  What got it in my mind is that spring has just begun and Good Ole 14-A was featured on this episode.  It’s real name is “Welcome Sweet Springtime” and way back on Two Chairs No Waiting #95 (Aug 3, 2010) we covered a lot of information about the music so you may want to go back and check out that podcast episode to get your fill of springtime music.

This episode, we’re just going to enjoy the magic that is Barney’s voice so sit back where you can and hang on!

Bonus:  This week in Mayberry History. (No Time for Sergeants)

A discussion over at the iMayberry Community drew me into a discussion about public domain episodes and what does it mean that the episodes are “public domain.”

The topic started out about the 1986 NBC TV movie “Return to Mayberry” but side tracked into other areas.  We’ll go through some of the fine points dealing with how hard I have to try not to break the copyright of VIACOM who owns The Andy Griffith Show.
