I Just Stumbled Across This...

[Bob Schroeck]

Bizarre TV Triva with photographic proof:
1930s Chicago in the Star Trek: TOS episode "The City On The Edge of Forever" is actually a redressed Mayberry from The Andy Griffith Show. I Kid You Not. Click through all the way to the last page to spy Kirk and Edith Keeler in front of Floyd's Barber Shop.

I intend to be a freak for the rest of my life, and I shall baffle you with cabbages and rhinoceroses in the kitchen and incessant quotations from Now We Are Six through the mouthpiece of Lord Snooty's giant poisoned electric head. So theeeeeere....

What I can't get over is how different the town looked for the filming of the Andy Griffith show and the filming of the star trek episodes.
I've often heard the term pictures don't lie, but this proves how easy it is to make them lie or at least tell a "truth" that you want.
The directors goals certainly made a difference in how we saw the same town.
A Star Trek and Mayberry crossover and it was done by the original writer and producers.
