Goober finally opens his new gas station in Mayberry! Everything goes fine and dandy until Howard discovers some old reltics under the gas station- DINOSAUR BONES! He is eager to recover them, but recovering them would mean tearing parts of the road around the gas station, and Goober won't allow it! Howard wants to make a mueseum with these bones, but wants to get all of them, so he sneaks to the gas station in the middle of the night. And he's caught! Gooober almost presses charges! Howard then opens the first natural science muesum ever in Mayberry, but it's a bust, because most of the bones from the dinosaur are still buried. Seeing how upset Howard is, Goober has the other bones recovered and all is once again well in Mayberry.

Synopsis

Mayberry R.F.D. is an American television series produced as a spin-off and direct continuation of The Andy Griffith Show. When star Andy Griffith decided to leave his series, most of the supporting characters returned for the new program, which ran for three seasons on the CBS Television Network from 1968–1971. During the final season of The Andy Griffith Show, widower farmer Sam Jones and his young son Mike are introduced and gradually become the show's focus. Sheriff Andy Taylor takes a backseat in the storylines, establishing the sequel series. The show's first episode, "Andy and Helen's Wedding", had the highest ratings in recorded television history. Sheriff Taylor and newlywed wife Helen make guest appearances on RFD until late 1969, and then relocate with Opie. Mayberry R.F.D. was popular throughout its entire run, but was canceled after its third season in CBS's infamous "rural purge" of 1971. R.F.D. stands for "Rural Free Delivery", a quaint postal depiction of the rural Mayberry community.
