I can't believe there's no more METV
I just scan through it I don't read it I just like to watch it
I got 13 out of 16!
10/16. I have to read more carefully.
Only a few things I remember from this episode. So my guesses weren’t too bad
5 out of 16.
1 wrong! Look how young Mike is! Cool dude!
15 of 16.
16 of 16 Baby! Goooooleee!
I loved sweet Gomer on TAGS, but just couldn't make friends with this show.
Why don't you like Gomer on Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C.?
I don't know if I can put my finger on it. He seemed to have lost his sweetness somehow. Didn't care for "Sgt. Carter" at all. I felt he was not an authentic male, JMHO. Lou Ann Poovie was a gruesome caricature, IMHO. Loved Gomer Pyle on TAGS, not so much on GP,USMC.
I get it. But I think I actually like him better on GPUSMC more than I like him on TAGS. And the reason why I say this is probably because he brances out, and gets involved more on the show. I also like that he's the main character, and I also like that he's in every episode as well.
12/16, good one...guess I haven't seen the episode enough yet
Love that Episode, Love the song.
14/16. A lot better than i thought I’d do. I haven’t seen this episode in many many years.
9/16. What is a hippie?
A hippie is someone who wears colorful clothing, a fringe vest or boots, sometimes bell bottom pants, usually has long hair, and they bring peace to everyone.
Like this: 
At least they were portrayed that way on TV. Every show from 1966 to 1974 (end of Vietnam War) had a hippie episode. Then it was disco.
Yeah, although I do wish Gomer dressed up as one, though
Just saw this episode yesterday and I missed 1. Nuts 🥜🙁
What was your favorite part of it last night?
How Gomer is always distracted from his work. Goofing off like always. Reminds me of me back in elementary 🤣
I think I'm like that, too
6/16, pretty good ah, nooooot.
13 of 16. I didn't even know I knew this stuff.
