[edit] Goober
Goober in The Andy Griffith Show was mostly called Goober Beasely. I believe the Pyle surname was only for a couple episodes.
Absolutely WRONG. Goober was Goober Pyle Gomer's cousin.
Well, no, not ABSOLUTELY wrong. Goober was, for most of the series, called Goober Pyle and was Gomer's cousin. But in at least one episode, Andy introduced Goober to another character as Goober Beasley, as documented on page 132 of "The Andy Griffith Show Book" by Ken Beck and Jim Clark. I remember the episode myself, because I was struck by Andy saying that last name. I'll see if I can dig up the specific episode in which it happened. But it DID happen.

[edit] Matlock
Should Matlock not be mentioned?
I think Matlock should be listed. It's something he was involved in. --Jennie Ambrose 09:36, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] "Monologist"?
Is Monologist a word? Answer: No it is not. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 62.140.196.148 (talk • contribs). 06:51, 12 July 2006
- Monologist dates from 1625, according to the OED, and has been used in its present sense, "one who presents monologues", since 1711. I challenge anyone to find a serious dictionary that does not have this word in it. The person who wrote this pulled it from the place the sun don't shine, which is why it is hard to find definitions there. Ortolan88 15:44, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] "Iconic figures" quote
Quote: He is one of the [...] most loved, iconic figures in both music and television history. This might hold for TV history, but regarding music history this is clearly out of bounds, and more of a fan statement. Pianojoe 09:57, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
