People should either be caressed or crushed. If you do them minor damage they will get their revenge; but if you cripple them there is nothing they can do. If you need to injure someone, do it in such a way that you do not have to fear their vengeance.

I always thought Gomer should have been named Goober and vice versa. Would seem more fitting.

RIP George.

I got to meet him once & he was a SUPER nice fella!

He was also a helluva comedian, something many people didn't know. He also played QB while in college & yes, he graduated.

His joke: My football coach held up a football one day & said, "Lindsay, can you pass this thing?" I said, "Coach, I don't think I can swallow it!"

I saw an interview some years back in which Don Knotts was talking about being on this show. He said (paraphrasing) that Andy Griffith was a giant asshole who called every member of the cast on the day after a weekly episode was telecast and he would say either "I was pleased with your performance" or he would say "I was unhappy with your performance." He stated that everybody on the show waited for that call with dread and fear. I guess he made their life a living hell if he was unhappy. His show, his rules, I guess applies.

Goes to show you that on-screen acting can be a LOT different than the person is in real life - to state the obvious. Who would ever have thought that Andy was that way, based on his character portrayal?

They're all available on Netflix streaming.

Usually when a character as popular as Gomer is replaced mid-series, the results are disappointing, but Goober proved to be an excellent substitute who made the role his own. RIP.
