		The cover has Gomer and Carter, with Carter shouting at him (you see the right side of his face) while Gomer is standing in his uniform with a smile on his face.
		First of all, the original “Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C.” episode from the fourth season of The Andy Griffith Show is included, which is nice for those who are fans of Gomer Pyle but not a big enough Andy Griffith fan to purchase those DVD’s as well.
		The humor of Gomer Pyle is the type that is very endearing to audiences and has a widespread appeal regardless of the age groups.

	DVD Talk Review: Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. - The Complete First Season
		Enacting a character such as Gomer, a totally pure, naive, optimistic, good-hearted personality, who also happens to be a slow, "country bumpkin," takes a complete commitment by the actor, a willingness to be 100% honest in his portrayal, while being "in the moment" and at one with the character, at all times on the screen.
		Creating a character such as Gomer Pyle, which people remember and still seek out forty years later, is nothing to sneeze at for any actor, regardless of their pedigree.
		Gomer faces a dilemma when he's asked to escort both the Colonel's daughter and a famous movie star to an enlisted men's dance.

	DVD review of Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. 1st Season - DVDTOWN.com
		What's interesting about this first-season release of "Gomer Pyle" is that it includes the supplemental material that was televised along with the pilot, which was released as an episode of "The Andy Griffith Show." Gomer, fans will remember, was the "Goll-ee" and "Shazam!" wide-eyed village idiot who worked at Wally's Filling Station.
		He announces that in the series Pyle won't act as stupid as he does in the pilot (apparently the writers and CBS felt they pushed the bumpkin button a little hard) and then Nabors, an operatic-quality vocalist, actually sings part of an aria.
		But as Carter gradually comes to realize that Pyle is the real deal--a homespun, folksy character who sees nothing but the good in people--he takes on Pyle as a project, to teach him the ways of the world for his own good.

		Jokes: While Gomer's character was funny on the Andy Griffith show, I cannot remember a single joke from either the Gomer Pyle USMC show or Beetle Bailey's comic.
		However Gomer Pyle is a Hoosier native, as of I. Beetle 0 (on penalty to being associated with the Crappy Circus) Gomer Pyle 1 (being Indianan)

		Gomer Pyle wordt in de jaren negentig regelmatig het vlaggenschip van de rockscene in West-Brabant genoemd.
		Gomer Pyle is verder een toonbeeld van dynamiek en kracht, en niet vies meer om stevige rockmonsters van songs met titels als Stupidmotherfucker te laten zijn wat het zijn: stevige rockmonsters!
		Maar bovenal is Gomer Pyle een supervette podiumband: bezwerende riffs, soundscapes, donkerbruine intrigerende zang, een oude Slingerland, bulderende buizenbakken en authentieke effecten.
