Think about this. Everyone that comes to mind. Andy, Aunt Bee, Barney, Floyd, Howard, Goober, Gomer, Sam, Ernest T. Bass, the Darlin family, Helen, Thelma Lou, Clara, Ellie Walker, Warren…… are all single. Not one of them is married.
In fact, the only one married on the show was Otis and he stayed drunk and in jail, happy to escape his wife.
Hmmm... think about that.

I've always believed that the real solution to the same sex marriage issue was to outlaw heterosexual marriage. Now I have a study to support my opinion.
Re: Mayberry Reconsidered
I think Emmett was married as well.

lib never saw the show - wants to know, "Where their any black people?"


For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts
Re: Mayberry Reconsidered
Of course there were black people (or at least one black person--in stereotyped job(s). If I recall, Opie had a black football coach.
