Apparently, as a reviewer, I'm not allowed to talk about anything specific in the episode. Only empty comments which don't mention the characters and what went on with them. So I will put in spoiler alerts, even if they aren't necessary. This episode involves Aunt Bee getting into the political arena. The group of women she hangs with encourage her to run for city council. Howard Sprague is the other choice. Once again, the portrayal of women is made to be tenuous, in that Aunt Bee just uses empty phrases to support her positions.

Episode was fun. Aunt Bee turning on Andy theme is being used occasionally. Bee was a horrendous candidate all posturing but very little knowledge of how cities & governments work. No real big laughs. Some humor in Andy being put in a seemingly no win situation.
Some decent Floyd lines. Goober & Opie are mostly secondary characters here. Again the woman is made intellectually inferior, or needs to apologize to the wise men. It's a 60s thing. Just how it was back then.
