Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaNo actual male Earps, who carried the surname, survived beyond that of Wyatt's own half-nephews, even though Andy claims to have a book of all descendants of Wyatt Earp (which he produces to prove a charlatan.) Despite the fact Wyatt Earp had six male siblings, only one of them, his half-brother, Newton, had any male offspring - Wyatt Clyde and Virgil Edwin. Neither of them had any male offspring, themselves, thus ending the Earp line of Nicholas Porter Earp (Wyatt's father.) Separately, Virgil Edwin Earp lived until November of 1959 (the last male namesake to carry the name) and he had occasionally worked within the film and television industry.
- GoofsThe banner at the fairground reads "Gibsons Wild West Show." It should read "Gibson's Wild West Show."
- Quotes
Floyd Lawson: Pardon me for saying so, Andy, but I don't think you'd have made a good sheriff in the old days.
Andy Taylor: Not tough enough, huh?
Andy Taylor: Too gentle. You would have probably been a barber.
Featured review
Martin Sheen?
Creepy Richard Jury looks like 1960s Martin Sheen. I had to look up the cast to make sure it wasn't Sheen. Back in the 1960s, before Sheen got star-power, he was usually skinny and played a few odd roles.
Pat Hingle was in his super-obnoxious role, which gets annoying after a couple of minutes. The highlight of this episode is that Richard Jury beats up Goober in a wrestling match, and he beats "Mayberry Arm-Wrestling Champion" Warren twice at arm-wrestling. Fortunately, this was the last time Jack Burns darkened the town of Mayberry with his comedy genius. I would like to think his character was banned from Hollywood.
