I always wondered about the strange visuals of the opening sequence to "Family Affair".
Are those supposed to be the "Family Jewels" or what? :laugh:

Flipper

This is NOT the version I was hoping for.  The singing on the one I want is a sort of lush 1960s straight choral group.  I think the one I want is probably older.

I think it means that while we were at home watching it after school, they were dropping acid...

Well, I can't find the theme to Gunsmoke, but did find this out take that is hilarious.

It features Margret Hamilton, otherwise known as the wicked wicked witch from The Wizard of Oz

Ho ho!  If we're putting outtakes, I'm going back and looking for Andy Griffith saying "fuck" that I happened upon yesterday.  :)

Here it is.  Apparently discussing NOT the Andy Griffith Show, but direction by Elia Kazan in A Face in the Crowd.
