Mayberry R.F.D.: The Race Horse (1968)
Season 1, Episode 3
1/10
Dreadful
27 September 2023
A weak remake in a way of a combination of much better Aunt Bee (Frances Bavier) "The Andy Griffith Show" themed episodes. Only here with poor writing, and bland actors. Goober (George Lindsey) supplied the only mild laughs. Ken Berry a talented comedic actor here played perpetually in a strained state vanilla stoically unfunny Sam Jones. Andy Taylor (Griffith) gets an odd "Where's Andy?" mention.

The highlights are a stunning glammed up Millie (Arlene Galonka) and Bryon Morrow of "I Dream of Jeannie". Trivia we see California palm trees at the North Carolina racetrack. The actors seem struggling to be enthusiastic delivering their sinking lines. Good to see the actors who shined in better shows.
