Trivia

Based upon the novel by Mac Hyman and also a play and movie starring Andy Griffith, you may have noticed that this series sounds a lot like, "Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C." which was a "spin-off" of the Andy Griffith Show! Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. also began in September of 1964 just like this series. Yes, two nearly identical shows on the air at the same time (although different nights). Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. definitely won the day, however, as it stayed on the air for 5 seasons versus this shows one season.
