Great show and Cast. Jim Neighbors really played a great part from Mayberry RFD Andy Griffith who discovered Jim with that voice of his and his own show afterward.he touched lives and gave Carol Burnett a much needed boost after she grew attached to his life as an actor.. .

I didn't know who it was but I was sure that was not Ted Bessel. In fact that's as far as I went. Someone makes such an egregious error right off the bat I'm done.

Exactly. Not Ted at all. Chuck McCann for sure. Still looked the same and when he was in Space Nuts with Bob Denver IF you do the math as well. The age and or dates don't even match 1995-1964=31 not 29.

And despite the rumors and lies, Jim died of complications from Hepatitis C not AIDS. He had one of the most beautiful voices to ever live. I saw him live in Vegas and the 1 and half show was absolutely gorgeous. He even stuck around after the show mingling with the crowd shaking hands, taking pictures and signing shirts and pictures. He was a real treasure. RIP Jim.

Seems as if you folks there at Facts Verse are not familiar with the popular TV show, That Girl, with Marlo Thomas. Ted Bessell was the 2nd lead behind Ms Thomas. Also starred Ronnie Schell. Of course Jim Nabors starred in The Andy Griffith Show before Gomer Pyle. What a tremendous voice and for 81 years old he was extra spectacular.

I was disappointed that Lou Ann Poovie Elizabeth MacRae was Left Out of This Video. Bunny(Barbara Stuart) had 3 DIFFERENT LAST Names: HARPER OLSEN and WILSON. Also an actress named Suzanne Benoit played both Jane Harper and Jane Gray. When Jane was Jane Harper She was the daughter of Colonel Harper (Karl Swenson).When Jane was Jane Gray she was the daughter of Colonel Gray played by Forrest Compton.. An actor named Richard Sinatra played Cpl Boyle for One Episode ONLY before ROY STUART played Corporal Chuck Boyle.. Jack Larson who played Jimmy Olson on The Adventures of Superman Played Tommy Leonetti the Corporal in Sgt Carter's office For one episode only. Richard Sinatra played Cpl McCabe for one episode only also..Friendly Freddie played by SID MELTON was a con Artist like Mr. Haney on Green Acres. Actor.Kay Kuter Who played Newt Kiley on Green Acres resembled Roy Stuart(Cpl Boyle). Also Barbara Stuart played Hannah Troy the Dragon Lady In one episode only of GP USMC.

If you Google Galaxyaudiobooks which is a free audiobook book site and look up Ron Howard you should find it. Some parts are slow but it narrated by the brothers. Skip down to chapter 10 or 12 and the Mayberry years begin, skip some more and then the Happy Days years come up. I love the behind the scenes and " old Hollywood stories". I just turned 57 so I caught Mayberry in reruns and I was in 5 the grade or so for Happy Days. Best wishes Mark

The show "Gomer Pyle" couldn't have been started in a worse year, i.e. 1964, for one that depicted life in the U.S. Marine Corps! I had just completed my basic training & short active duty in the Army National Guard in July & the Vietnam 'war' was just escalating after the "Gulf of Tonkin" incident then! So a show that would last 6 or more years, without ever mentioning it or having active duty Marines never being "called up" was preposterous Yet, if viewers could ignore this huge discrepancy, it was a good show for the time!
