Gotta realize that the AG show was considered corney, hickish and old-timey even when it first aired. The context of the era tends to be overlooked after decades have passed.
As a fiddle player and singer, Bluegrass is just part of me. Part of make up, as musician. Boil Them Cabbage Down, was the very first "fiddle" tune I ever learned to play. Now, I am teaching young fiddler's, and "Boil Them Cabbage Down" is one of the first songs I use.
I watched my grand daughter view the comedy in todays tv programs....she just stared at the tv....I put on some old Andy Griffith and she came alive and laughed from her heart....a few years before that I noticed the same thing with the modern day cartoons...she just stared at the tv.....then I put on some of the old cartoons that had some humor and she laughed......don't ever try to tell me we have progressed with our tv programming.
Most of us folks remember this from our childhood, It was a very different time of moral thought. God, Family and Hard work was the standard.. What happened???
He had to lay low and change his name to boot after he burned down the Gillis's grocery store. Even Dobie was out to get him. When they found him, he left Charlene and hired on with a tour boat in San Diego.
True enough. If my kids come to my house when we are watching TV they say they think they have been transported to the 50, 60, 70 and 80s. So glad for RUclips, Netflix and DVDs.
Well, I for one hate this episode. Lengthy explanation and extreme opinion incoming. This episode has the same 'Charlene falls for Andy, although different with divorcing Dud Walsh, Andy tries to get away from her, Briscoe Darling ignores Andy not wanting to have anything to do with Charlene' crap from "The Darlings are Coming", only worse because Andy is forced into marrying Charlene when he obviously doesn't want to. Dud is at his worst, he won't listen to Andy when he tries to explain everything, I feel he's out of character because he acts like a 100% mountain man when he is a civilian/ex-marine who married a mountain woman, who may adapt to some mountain traditions, but not become one of them completely. If he was played his original actor instead of Bob Denver, I think he would have, at least, listened to Andy. And, worst of all, the episode ends like the events didn't happen at all, with Briscoe acting all innocent, despite what he's done to Andy, and Andy lets bygones be bygones. I would not be so forgiving if that ever happened to me. And even worse than that, the Elephant in the Room of this episode is Andy being forced into a marriage with someone whom he doesn't even have eyes on. I don't care that the Darlings are mountain people. There's a law against forced marriage! The show takes place where the law is in effect. Therefore, the Darlings should have been arrested for forced marriage. I also don't care that Briscoe is a widower and wants what's best for his family, or stubborn in his beliefs; if somebody doesn't want to marry someone else, who they don't want anything to do with no less, then it should be left at that! There's following your beliefs, then there's doing so to the point of being blind to what's obviously in front of you, ignorant and stupid. How am I the only one who is not okay with this episode?
@@tffan1029I get what you're saying and this is actually my least favorite Darlings episode of the first 3, but I think the rage about "forced marriage" is a stretch. I live in Virginia at the base of the Appalachians and I think this episode has more to do with exploring the superstitions you can expect to find in Appalachia.(i.e. The rider dressed in black on a white horse) Barney had his superstitions too with the chain letter and even in this episode believing that wearing a ruby ring while riding a horse will make the horse go mad) Even the people here in the valley seem to have carry-over superstitions that started with stories from their parents and grandparents; superstitions that aren't much different than the ones portrayed on the show. I totally agree that Bob Denver's portrayal as Dud was far too out of character for the original Dud who was a former Marine. I realize though that this is just comedy and supposed to be something that takes you away from real life for half an hour so I don't dive too deeply into every single aspect of any episode. I was in the hospital for almost a month last year after surgery for a blockage in my stomach and watching reruns of TAGS on TV was one of the things that helped get me through the pain and tedium of being stuck in a hospital bed. I also grew up with TAGS as a kid. Anyhow, I see what you're getting at. I just wanted to put my take on it out there too as I live in Appalachia. Wishing you the very best. 🙂
@@adamsafranek7407 I appreciate you hearing my opinion out, and I'm happy that I'm not the only one who hates "Divorce Mountain Style". You say that it's your least favorite out of the first 3 Darling episodes, but if I may ask, what are your thoughts on the only other Darling episodes: "Briscoe Declares for Aunt Bee" which came before "Divorce Mountain Style", "The Darling Baby" during season 5, and "The Darling Fortune" during the colored seasons of TAGS?
I grew up on TAGS. Here we see Bob Denver sitting next to Maggie while Denver Pyle who plays Biscoe Darling on this show is on the jug. This brings back plenty of fond memories.

I grew up in the 90s and I will always say that the 90s will be the last great decade and one of the reasons was because of TV was good and I know this show took place in the 60s but I do really like the show it's one of my favorite.. my fever is Barney fight but I really do admire Andy Taylor because he'll go out of his way to help his friends so much so that most of the time that his friends don't even notice what and he's doing for them
Love these old shows. My Daddy used to sing a verse 'A raccoon has a bushy tail, a possum's tail is bare, a rabbit ain't got no tail at all, it's just a little bunch of hair"
I agree with you!!!! I loved all the old black and white tv shows. Andy, Barney, Bewitched...all of those were great!!! And you were never embarassed if your grandparents were watching those shows with ya!!
I watch it even more now days than when I was growing up. It's a blessed relief for a little while from all the other terrible and distressing things on tv. I quit cable years ago and don't miss it at all, have a digital antennae.
Great gold treasures never tarnish. Bob Denver & Allan Hale on the show just before Gilligan's Island. Maggie/ Sharlen said Oh no pa ! That makes me cry, to hear the song 🎵
I like the show i hate barney and don knotts in general i cant stand his acting alomost like a jim carrey of the 60s his characters were way to childish corny even for the time period and why was he so skinny hunchback and awkward be had money fame surely he could have gained weight and fix his posture? Im 6 foot tall at 25 i was 24 inch waist 109 lbs severely under weight but i allways maintained good posture i trained myself early on to have it i gained 50lbs im now overweight 44 yrsl old im 197lbs i should be about 168 or so but i hate don knotts because he looks stupid weak weak weak
I remember watching Andy Griffith son when I was a kid. But I had never heard of this song until my best friend played it for me. Now I can't get boil them cabbage down out of my head
yes I liked thisd.....rip Andy.....I liked Gilligan's Island also with Bob Denver...I also liked The Dukes of Hazzard with Denver Pyle...I didn't know Andy was asked to run for the senate in North Carolina...wonder what kind of senator he'd have made???...I have a Mayberry cookbook..one recipe is Boil that Cabbage down Cabbage...sounds good huh???...Andy had a good singing voice didn't he????
Some time later, Charlene's husband got a job on a boat as First Mate on a tiny ship doing three hour tours from a tropic port. On a fateful trip the weather started getting rough and the tiny ship was tossed. The Minnow, it was lost.
Denver had been a character actor on TV for decades. I think after Andy Griffith ended, he landed a role as Doris Day's pa in her TV show back in the late 60's.
Bob Denver was born in New York, but I think he lived in Mercer County, WV. I remember him first as Maynard G. Krebs in The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis.

Who knew Gilligan could sing?
Who knew Gilligan married Charlene.? I think the show would have been much more lively had Andy stuck to the code of the hills and married Charlene.
I knew 😁
@@WILTALK, I was just thinking the same thing.
What was the other program that Bob Denver appeared in? Doby Gillis, I think. Maynard G. Krebs.
@@DanPurdy1Yep. It was Dobie Gillis
I get a about 150 channels on cable and sometimes the only thing I can find worth watching are 40 year old re-runs of the Andy Griffith Show!
Antlers68, try the Sundance channel. Andy comes on there several times per week! Actually, I'm watching it now!! Lol...
True to this day!
Rest in peace Maggie Peterson you were the best
Good ol days
Absolutely true. Forty year old shows , any of them.
The Dillards were one of the greatest bluegrass bands ever.
I agree!
Blow me
"Oh no Pa,that makes me cry". "Try to control yourself". Classic.
The Dillard's kick butt when it comes to bluegrass.
So sad we don't have good clean shows like this anymore.I grew up watching this show.It was great!
I stiill watch it every night on Metv. Seen most of them, but love it so much I watch them again.
Feel like Mayberry is family.🌞💞
@ It's Gooooooooly.🤗
I know, it seems like every show these days has people humping each other. Get a room, not my room.
This here very show is on Netflix at the time I wrote this comment!
Hey, we're lucky we've got ways to watch re-runs any time we want.
Andy was the greatest show ever. Very funny without using profanity, sex or cheap jokes.
Agreed.
Gotta realize that the AG show was considered corney, hickish and old-timey even when it first aired. The context of the era tends to be overlooked after decades have passed.
Its hard for young people today to imagine there were ever shows
like this on American television, but we DID have a country once,
(not a "homeland").
You nailed it!!
GooglFascists i, very luckily live in a town smaller then mayberry was said to be
Amen
Dude I love all those shows and I’m 13
I am 11and it's my favorite show
Don Knotts and Bob Denver! West Virginia represent! 🤘🤘🙌
good to see he made it off that island and moved inland.
William. He must have missed the old gang because he went back next week.
And got rid of the hat.
Maynard Krebs!
Na, after this skit, the put him in the boat.
He is still on the Island. this happened before the shipwreck.
I like how that making him cry is not a double standard. There is a time
As a fiddle player and singer, Bluegrass is just part of me. Part of make up, as musician.
Boil Them Cabbage Down, was the very first "fiddle" tune I ever learned to play.
Now, I am teaching young fiddler's, and "Boil Them Cabbage Down" is one of the first songs I use.
Only on The Andy Griffith Show can you see Matlock, Mr. Firley, Gilligan and Uncle Jesse singing this lovely tune together!
We'll miss you Ange!
Back was tv was worth watching. Today, forget it. 90% of what's on the tube now isn't worth watching.
Gilligan can dance and sing..
@@bikerhighmiler8998 He was probably high at the time too. Made it better.
John Stamos was in this episode?

So true.
That's a lot of talent to have in one scene!
Is that Bob Denver?
@@knoahbody69 i recon it is!
Bob Denver (Gilligan) sings really good!
It's really well, to be grammatically correct
+Ponyboy Curtis Talkin' good English ain't needed here.
+wingnutofcoolness Well, when you put that way, I guess you're right.
wanna bet? @@wingnutofcoolness
He also changed his shirt between verses, which is a very good trick!
Most of us folks remember this from our childhood, It was a very different time of moral thought. God, Family and Hard work was the standard.. What happened???
There will NEVER be another group like the Dillards! They played from the Heart!
Gilligan laying low in Mayberry with the Darlins, before becoming a mighty sailing man
Well remember before this he was a beatnik on Dobie Gillis.
He had to lay low and change his name to boot after he burned down the Gillis's grocery store. Even Dobie was out to get him. When they found him, he left Charlene and hired on with a tour boat in San Diego.
If I can't have my one true love, I won't have none at all. Amen Charlene!
never knew Gilligan had some country in him...:)

As a kid back in 1970 I was into Hendrix, Cream The Dead and a notable aside, THE DILLARDS. They were amazing!

Actually we have been going downhill since the 60s
@@brendalg4yeah I can see you can make a good argument for that but like I said the '90s will be the last great decade

This was after Bob Denver played beatnik Maynard G Krebs on "The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis" and before Gilligan.
Heard the others, this is still the best. RIP. Andy

I was obsessed with this song when I was 9
This Show aleays had a great message..It was a great show with a great cast. There will never be another show like this!

For those of you who ain't country, a muley cow is one who has no horns. Makes the first verse a non-sequitar. Heh. Love this.
when we had TV, this was one of my KIDS favorite shows to wact. Thye were amazed that TV was once in Black & White!
The better episodes were I'm black & white.
Change my mind.
Every single episode of TAGS was special to me because it was a time where we could laugh and it felt good.
