"The Dillards" were known to be one of the best Bluegrass bands ever....

Charleen Darling. Maggie Peterson had a wonderful singing voice. I seen the Darlings years ago I believe on the Merv Griffin show. Maggie Anderson also performed very good voice. RIP Maggie

The episodes with the Darlings are my favorites.

The only episode involving the Darlings that is actually good, in my opinion, is Mountain Wedding. That episode doesn't have Briscoe jumping to conclusions like an idiot, ignoring what's right in front of his face, Charlene being lovey dovey towards Andy (the least of my problems), and ignoring anything that someone says to him about something (like Andy telling him so many times that he doesn't want to be with Charlene, or that he doesn't want to marry Charlene after she divorced her first husband, Aunt Bee telling him that she wasn't trying to impress him with her household manners, and doesn't want to marry him, or Andy telling him NO! about Opie marrying Charlene and Dud's less than a year old daughter (Yeah, you heard me. I've heard of different cultures and customs, but a ten year old boy marrying a less than a year old baby girl sounds ridiculous)). And the best part is that Briscoe gets a taste of his own medicine from Ernest T Bass wanting to marry Charlene. By that, I mean that Briscoe deals with someone who won't listen to him, just like how Andy, in the previous episode that they showed up, had to deal with Briscoe not listening to him about Charlene. It's legit the only episode that I actually like the Darlings. Every Darlings episode before and after, well.....

❤’d this show all my life (lol lonng time) but i have never warmed up to Ernest. i don’t know bc i still watch his episodes & even laugh *BUT* always in the back of my mind, something ab him bugs me!? lol thought maybe since he’s your big ol’ hero you might help me figure this out? What annoys me most is that i should ADORE Mr Bass, sort of rude & crude is my kind of humor! For real it truly _IS_ frustrating! i mean, i want to know what i’m missing!😢 _siiiigh_ tried every which way but couldn’t find a sentence to fit but also wanted to say _why don’t you just_ _MARRY HIM?!?_ 😂 Funny thing to say when i was a kid. i feel like you’re judging me. So _HOW OLD_ are you anyway?! lol? 😬

Fun fact. Denver Pyle, The elder gent playing the jug, is aka Uncle Jessie from The Dukes of Hazzard.

They finally took the loud jugging out because it was overshadowing the Dillards.

I doubt there is a set of lips around with that much versatility

Not real sure why Andy avoided Charlene's advances. Guess he was afraid of those mountain wild cats. I always thought there was something about her that was just a bit hot. I think it's her singing on.. there is a time.

O frisco darling lol lol shute😅😅😅

Charlene (Maggie Peterson) sure could render! Wonder what Dud would be saying?

Stormy me call.

Kids growing up now will think computers make the best music.
