* After that episode "Opie Cunningham" later joined the USMC on a M*A*S*H episode. "Sometimes You Hear the Bullet" is episode #17 of the first season of the TV series M*A*S*H.
8/10.
I guess Gomer didn't know Andy and Sgt. Carter already met.
9/10 misssed an easy one. Q 9 had nothing to do with the episode.

Wished Sergeant Hacker had more of a starring role instead of supporting.☹️
A great quiz

You got 10 out of 10
Whether your answers were in tip-top shape or a little sloppy, it's never a bad idea to watch more Gomer Pyle!

9 for 10.
Man, Tommy Farrell was like the most as Beatnik store owner Biff Ryan on Dobie Gillis.
He was the ginchiest, you dig? Like, nervous. Kookie and Mort Sahl would hang at Biff's
joint.
I am loving MeTV Plus! Hawaii 5-0, 77 Sunset Strip and Hawaiian Eye make for
an exciting entertainment bloc every night from 8 - 11 PM.
I especially like the crossover episodes between sister series 77 Sunset Strip
and Hawaiian Eye. Throw in all the great guest stars and sultry Connie Stevens
and bob's your uncle. Ya done good, MeTV guys.
So why aren't you promoting it? Somebody's asleep at the switch.
