Two Chairs No Waiting

A gem of a find with Mayberry’s own fun girl Jean “Hello Doll” Carson (TCNW #66: Jean Carson Interview) as the focus.

In answer to a request by caller Kyle heard in TCNW #78, I was looking around for other work our Mayberry friends did outside of The Andy Griffith Show and I found “Plan for Escape” (November 17, 1952).

“Plan for Escape” was an episode of the CBS-TV anthology series Studio One (a.k.a. Westinghouse Studio One in honor of the sponsor of the show). The story is a damsel-in-distress type gangster story and is basically a play filmed live.  Jean plays Mary Warren who is a cocktail-lounge singer.

I thought you might like hearing Mayberry’s Daphnie sing as well as a bit of the dialog. The song is “I Only Saw Him Once” by Joan Whitney/Alex Kramer.

Two Chairs No Waiting

Do you ever have conversations with fellow Andy Griffith Show fans that ONLY another fan would understand or enjoy? Well, I do and I ran across one such exchange recently and I believe it will be something that you, as a Mayberry fan, will enjoy hearing about.

The conversation you’ll hear about was between The Andy Griffith Show Rerun Watchers Club (TAGSRWC) Presiding Goober Jim Clark, the members of The Schumpsters, The Mayberry Texans, and Mother Figure chapters.

We also hear from some listeners about episode #66. We’d love to hear from you, too so…don’t forget to leave comments or ask questions on the Mayberry.com/podcasts website or using the contact information given in the podcast. We’d love to have you be a part of our next feedback episode.

Two Chairs No Waiting

This is an interview I did with Jean “Hello Doll” Carson back on 26 June 1998 in Kingsport, TN.

Jean passed away on November 2, 2005 and she is greatly missed but continues to bring smiles to the faces of The Andy Griffith Show fans as Daphne (the “Fun Girl”) and convict Naomi Connors.

Jean’s love for the fans was sincere and that love was returned to her by all that had the chance to meet her.  I know you’ll enjoy the interview and the memories.
