 TV ACRES: Television Character Bios - George Lindsey as Goober Pyle (The Andy Griffith Show)
Goober loves to eat pancakes and once won a pancake eating contest at the county fair by downing 57 pancakes in one sitting.
Goober’s favorite vegetable is corn on the cob; his favorite movie is The Monster That Ate Minnesota (he’s seen it ten times); and his favorite toy is a Teddy Bear named Buster.
And it took no time at all until Goober and Gomer renewed their friendship with Andy and began to turn up at the courthouse to shoot the breeze, to share the town gossip and to drive Deputy Barney Fife crazy with their antics.

 "Goober and the Ghost-Chasers" (1973)
Voiced by Paul Winchell (Jerry Mahoney, Tigger, Dick Dastradly, Gargamel) and with Ronnie Schell (from Gomer Pyle) as the Shaggy voice, Goober was a green dog who would turn invisible when he was scared, leaving only his floating red hat and dog collar suspended in mid-air.
Of all the Scooby Doo clones to emerge; Josie and the Pussycats, Speed Buggy, Jabber Jaw, Clue Club, etc., none were as obvious as Goober and the Ghostchasers.
The 'gang' were reporters with no outstanding qualities, trying to get pictures of ghosts.

 Semi-OT: Griffith, Nabors, Howard, Lindsay Reunite
The special will feature the four veterans reminiscing about the series, highlights from the show, and separate interviews with other surviving cast members, including George Lindsay (Goober) and Betty Lynn (Barney's girlfriend, Thelma Lou).
He later became a regular on "Matlock." Nabors, who joined "The Andy Griffith Show" in 1963, left Mayberry after a year and a half to join the Marines as the star of his own spinoff, "Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C." Howard has had perhaps the most storied post-Mayberry career.
He will be joined by former co-stars Howard, 49, who played his red-haired son, Opie, Knots, 79, who portrayed Andy's bumbling deputy Barney Fife, and Nabors, 73, the naive but lovable gas station attendant at Wally's filling station.

 4alfalfa.com: The Great Mike summary
Throughout, he wears a Goober Pyle-like beanie with fishing lures stuck in it (not unlike the hat he wore in " Henry and Dizzy ").
Alfalfa gives an unremarkable but likeable performance, although it seems strange that he appears significantly older than Jimmy (as well as the other paper boys) but yet takes orders from Jimmy regarding paper delivery operations.
We particularly like the relationship between Jimmy and Colonel Whitney (played nicely by Pierre Watkin, who would appear in another Alfalfa film, " Redwood Forest Trail ", six years later.) At first, the Colonel is somewhat haughty and a bit standoffish; in fact, Alfalfa refers to him as a "grouch".
