    Used to make calls to Northern suppliers in a previous job. The people on the other end would go on about my southern accent. I wore it as a badge of honor 😊

      John, Just want to tell you, whenever I have had phone contact with Southerners they have been some of the warmest, friendliest and most helpful folks. My wife has Southern roots, this ex-Southern Californian loves and appreciates y'all! Blsgs, gg

    It's easy to watch the Andy Griffith Show and think of it in terms of the 1960s. After all, the patrol car was a late model Ford Galaxie sedan (donated each year by a local Ford dealership). But, Mayberry was actually modeled after a southern town in the 1940s, most likely Mount Airy, North Carolina.

      Andy himself said the show was about bringing back their memories of growing up in the 30's and 40's. He always thought it was funny that people associated it with their own yrs of growing up in the 60's.

    I can't believe people in Hollywood think people anywhere can't related to people all over the country. And I even enjoy British TV 📺 shows. They give us no credit. 😖

    In the Danny Thomas Show skit which kickstarted the AGS Andy was way too hillbilly. He had to tone it down quite a bit.

      I was going to say about the same thing. Even when TAGS first aired, he had a southern accent that pretty much went anyway after awhile.

    During the 80s TV Guide did an article about how Southerners got portrayed on TV. It mentioned shows like Dallas, The Dukes of Hazzard, even The Waltons. Sadly, TV doesn't have the greatest reputation for its treatment of certain areas. Yet there are still things we have in common.
    Hillbilly is a term that can be either an insult or compliment. We still watch TAGS for a number of reasons. The people are very relatable. That includes the so-called nuts. TV has done a lot to decrease the use of accents. Hopefully some will stay true to their roots.

    Thanks Bob for this AGS F & T segment. That was a great description for AG at the time it was being shown weekly to us on television. Of course I might have used that description describing Andy Taylor.
