Does anyone remember the episode where Gomer keeps sleepwalking during combat training? He can't fight when he's awake, but when he's asleep, he's really good? I want to find information about that episode...:confused:

If you're still here, I think I can answer your question. An episode did appear with that plotline. Gomer ate somekind of stew and it made him sleepwalk. He would stand up to Sgt. Carter when sleepwalking, but Carter doesn't find out later that Pyle was sleepwalking. He finds this out because the Corporal points out that Pyle's eyes are closed.

gottaknow & Jenny,
What a great episode! #84, "Gomer, the Welsh Rarebit Fiend." One of my faves!

Carter and Boyle were convinced that Gomer was drinking or possibly smoking something funny. But, it was really only something he was eating. Jim Nabors was absolutely terrific the way he kept getting right in the sarge's face and telling him off night after night!

I loved the ending to the episode where Carter is sleepwalking and Gomer is supposedly Sgt. Carter. Carter walks out in his underwear and starts talking like Gomer, and Gomer starts yelling at Carter in Sgt. Carter's voice. lol

Jenny,
It was a gem! When Sgt. Carter was acting like Gomer at the end, of course, they dubbed Gomer's voice. But, when Gomer was yelling at him in Sgt. Carter style, Gomer was really doing it himself.

Yep, that scene always cracks me up. You know another episode that cracks me up? The one where Sgt. Carter, Gomer, and the gang go on overseas manuvers or something like that. Sgt. Carter, Gomer, and Duke are in this dingy (Is that what it was called?) kind of thing and Gomer keeps making the air go out of the dingy and they sink almost everytime. I love that episode too. Wow, I'd say this is the most times anybody has ever posted on this board for a week!

Yeah my man Gomer Pyle USMC went and ate him some Welsh Rabbit (rarebit) at this lady's restaurant. For it must have reminded him of Home; anyway it was said that eating Welsh Rabbit makes some people have weird dreams.

And the people said:

Amen.

It reminds me of 2 Episodes in my Life that is Living that is consuming Oxygen or O2. 1 is on TV and 1 is Real Life:

A: A movie called "Coal Miner's Daughter" has Loretta Lynn and her husband Doolittle going into the store for some food. Loretta complains about having "too much bologna" and Doo told her "AND I QUOTE":

Bologna makes you Horny.

B: In my Elementary School Days I would often read books of interesting qualities. Well. One day I saw this book called "The End Of The World". My main man Tracy Pearce sees me w/this book and says "AND I QUOTE":

You're gonna have bad dreams man.

Smart dude. He was oh about 10 or 11 when he said it and wouldn't you know:

He was right.

Amen.

Amen.

Oh Pickoff! I Rod (Ivan Rodriguez) of the Rangers tried to pick off Javy Lopez of the Braves. Gotta run.

And because of that, I've developed a huge love for Welsh Rarebit!

And no...I've never had any dream problems after eating it!

But it does make me wanna walk around in my underwear from time-to-time! :lol:

Hi Everyone

...it's not RABBIT, but 'RARE'BIT.

And it's delicious! It's just a blend of cheese and spices in a sauce, poured over toasted bread! MMMMMmmmmmmm!

There's a frozen version in the grocery store that's actually pretty good.

I'm making myself hungry! :D Now I know what's for dinner! ;)

Hi

Sorry about the misinterpretation about Welsh 'Rare'bit and I'm sure that it must be very good. I knew what it was and I also knew that it didn't have anything to do with rabbits. I know that being afraid to try something because of what I saw on an old TV show is silly, but I just can't help how I feel. Maybe some day I will. But for now I choose not to. I am new on this list and have been a Gomer fan since I first saw him on The Andy Griffith Show back in 1962 when I was 8 years old. I just love to heard Jim sing and I have sereval CD of his songs that I can sit and listen to for hours. Well any way I hope to make alot of new friends here and I will be posting as often as I can. Well bye for now:wave:

I wouldn't worry about being afraid of trying a new food because of a tv show. I'm kind of the opposite on foods on tv shows, well some foods anyway. :) You know the pickle episode of The Andy Griffith Show? Everytime I see that episode, I start craving pickles. lol- I've often wondered if anybody else ever gets that feeling when they see that episode.

BTW, Welcome to the Boards! :)

Don't tell me that the Brussells sprouts episode of "Leave It To Beaver" gives you cravings, too!

When I was a kid I saw a Munsters episode where Herman says "We're having Shoo-fly pie tonight. And I wanna get there before all the flies are gone." That created the worst image in my head forever about that pie. And I always thought it was
Welsh rabbit. Wondered how kind hearted Gomer could do such a thing.

I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but I drink milk & Pepsi because Laverne does on Laverne & Shirley. My parents won't let me, so I do it at friends houses or when they're not home. Good stuff, really. I kind of want to try Welsch Rabbit sometime, since I saw it on Gomer. But if it gives me bad dreams, I'm gonna blame the writers from Gomer. Bye!

A few people brought up the milk and pepsi thing on the Chit Chat board. At first I thought the idea was kind of gross, but I think I would at least like to try it once.

Isn't this your first post on the Gomer board? If it is, let me be the first to welcome you to the board. :)

Actually, it's called by both names. It's thought that originally it was called Welsh Rabbit sa a way of making fun of the dish or of the Welsh, because it is only bread and cheese sauce. But to avoid confusion, it's called Rarebit.
I wanted to eat it, because of that episode ( SAY! I WANT to be tough and yell at an enemy! :livid: :angryfire ) But when I heated up my Stouffer's frozen Welsh Rarebit, I was disappointed --I didn't have any bread to pour it over. I had to use crackers! And I thought it was overrated.

:sleep2: :cuss: :barf:

puke: :explode:

EYEWWWWW! Brussells sprouts! :help

I could never understand why anyone likes them :stressed: --but RE that Beaver show just because he liked them at the restaurant doesn't mean he'd like the way his mom makes them. When I was a kid, gravy in restaurants tasted like meat-flavored gag-worthy dough. I used to always say NO GRAVY, and still do, unless I know the gravy is made with wine, mushrooms, spices, and worth eating. Beaver's Brussells Sprouts were probably cooked with wine or vinegar at the restaurant. :eat: :drink:

Aha! What about that episode where Gomer and Sgt Carter were on a survival mission --I remember Gomer catching fish by sharpening his key ring on a rock to make a hook, finding tobacco and making hand-rolled cigars, :cheers: comfort-praising Carter's efforts in finding plants ( "My Ma always says to eat your greens." ); [ and somebody thinking that they cheated because they gained weight instead of losing weight like everybody else. ] props:


and I thought I also recalled him catching rabbits in a snare?
