    Recently I watched an episode of The Flintstones where Fred hypnotizes Barney. Now Barney thinks he is a dog so Fred takes Barney to the doctor. The doctor was absolutely hilarious and the doctor was voiced by Howard McNear.

    This is one of the best videos I've seen.Howard was such a great actor and I'm so glad that Andy worked it out where he could come back. I thought he was more hilarious after the stroke. He reminded me of my great-grandmother family. They all took life east and slow and he even favored one of my greatuncles.Thanks for this video Bob.Hope you and your family have a wonderful weekend!😊

    Thanks Bob for this AGS F & T segment. Howard McNear was a very funny man and was great as Floyd, Mayberry’s barber. He played a barber on LITB. God Bless our Floyd 🙏 Great segment Bob.

    5:41 "You're funny for a sheriff."
    I loved Floyd talking about how nice a sound the shaving brush made against the cup. "Klep, klep; that's such a nice sound."

    In "Convicts at Large," his last episode before suffering a stroke, Floyd was hit over the head with a vase by one of the escaped convicts. Maybe the cause of his stroke? He was hit pretty hard!

    And Andy being compassionate to have him back.

    I recall two episodes of the "Peter Gunn" TV series that Howard guest-starred in. In both episodes he sorta played variations of 'Floyd the Barber.'
    One episode in particular: "Slight Touch of Homicide," had McNear's character being a vigilante. I won't go any further on the episode. It's got to be viewed to be believed.
    That Peter Gunn episode [228] can be found online at the _Dailymotion_ website.

    He was great as Floyd. I remember him playing a doctor in the Jimmy Stewart movie Anatomy of a Murder. Didn't one episode say that Floyd had made enough money to retire? It's great that Andy brought him back. The Loaded Goat began in Floyd's barbershop. But he was out to lunch. His cameo in Divorce, Mountain Style often gets cut out.
