"The Andy Griffith, Don Knotts, Jim Nabors special" brings together Mayberry's three favorite home-town boys for an hour of comedy and music, adapted from their hit nightclub act. Friendship is the theme as Andy recalls two great pals of the past-Julius Caesar and Brutus-and Don describes the flight of Gemini X11, piloted by two unfriendly astronauts. In sketches, we learn why Sheriff Taylor (Andy) hired Barney (Don) as his deputy; and Andy, Don, and Jim attend a family picnic. Peter Gennaro staged the dances. Alan Copeland arranged and conducted the chorus and orchestra. Director Alan Hanley co-produced with Bob Wynn. Script by Aaron Ruben.
