3rd mediocre episode in a row
"Only one funny scene was Floyd (Howard McNear) caring for, and talking about his pansies to Andy near the beginning. Keeping the rose in the backyard at peril was convenient for the script. Some good dramatic acting by Bee (Frances Bavier). Obvious astroturf in the Taylor's backyard. Not a horrible episode. Nothing special...."
💡 Did You Know?
Apparently Andy has a next door neighbor named Tillie Kincaid that's really nosy. She lives on the other side of Andy's fenced in backyard.
