Blind dates haven't changed in 50 years

Andy Griffith Show s3e6. It gives me the herpes. Blind date scene with Andy, Barney, Thelma Lou and Lydia. This cracked me up and I couldn't find the whole segment posted so I thought I'd share. Blind date humor that is just as relevant in 2014 as it was in 1963.

Lydia Crosswaithe is played by the actress Josie Lloyd, the daughter of the prolific character actor, Norman Lloyd. Some may remember Lloyd playing the role of Dr. Daniel Auschlander in the television drama St. Elsewhere over its six-season run (1982-88). He died in 2021 at the ripe old age of 106. HIs daughter, Josie, died in 2020 at age 80.
