Today, I take another nostalic and historic memory lane road trip. In this episode, I visit the famous gravesites of many of the cast members from the classic 1960s TV show THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW.
I also visit the location where the opening scene of the show was filmed. The Franklin Canyon Park and reservoir in Beverly Hills, California is used as the fishing hole in Mayberry.
GRAVESITE VISITS INCLUDE:
Don Knotts (Sheriff Barney Fife), Westwood Village Memorial Park, Westood, CA
Howard McNear (Floyd the barber), Los Angeles National Cemetery, Westwood, CA
Harold "Hal" Smith (Otis), Woodlawn Cemetery, Santa Monica, CA
Howard Morris (Ernest T), Hillside Memorial Park, Culver City, CA
Aneta Corsaut (Helen Crump), Valhalla Cemetery, North Hollywood, CA
Earle Hagen (Composed the TV theme song), Desert Memorial Park, Cathedral City, CA
I also remember Andy Griffith, Frances Bauvier, Jim Neighbors, George Lindsey, Hope Summers, Jack Dodson, Paul Hartman and others.
Thanks for joining me on my travels on yet another trip to the past, down memory lane.

This was a great trip, Steve! Who doesn't love the Andy Griffith Show? My wife and I were in Manteo/Roanoke Island a couple of months ago, and made it up to the gate where Andy is buried. It would be nice if they would open it up from time to time so we could pay our respects. I remember I was in Branson, MO when I learned of his passing.

Man I love Howard Morris. He was a hoot. Especially when he serenaded Charlene Darling. He could have also had on his epitaph You ain't seen the last Of Ernest T. Bass. He said that often too. This was wonderful thanks again as usual. For fun my favorites were Ernest T, Barney, and Floyd. But the Taylor household was the foundation for the wackier characters.

I still love the Andy Griffith show. I still watch it. To be honest all those characters are unique. They all support each other. How could you favour Andy without Barney who made him stand out. It is hard to favour just one from the show. Who made this Andy Griffith show was an excellent person who combined the characters so meshes together that one cannot do without the other. So it is all about the Andy Griffith show in a "nut shell". Even the person who whistled the song. For me the name of that tune is "the Andy Griffith show". I like the twist of the show too with the Hillybillies and their ways of life. I always enjoy this show.

The Andy Griffith show was great!!, it's still on today, we watch it every day. But I wish it had of been filmed in NC. , just like one of my favorite shows The Waltons, the original family " The Hamners "from Virginia, was filmed in California. I live in Virginia and have visited their home several times, I was disappointed to find out the series was filmed in California..But I understand it would have costly to film it here. Anyway, thanks for sharing another great tour. I hope your mom and you are well.😊🌴🌻🌷🌺

When I got to see the piece of land that the minnow of the Gilligans island lies on its side with a hole in it it was just such an experience!💐 we could hear you perfectly on this video, Steve. Also we’ve added a new member to our family. We got an adorable puppy named Juno this week. So far our four-year-old dog, Ruby is very happy.

Here’s a nice little tid-bit for fans of THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW. Did you know that Earl Hagen was under a lot of pressure to write the theme because there was so little time before production was scheduled to begin. When it was done, everyone liked it, but wanted to hear the lyrics. That was the first Hagen had heard that he was supposed to write music AND lyrics, and with so little time remaining before production , he abandoned any attempt to come up with lyrics and decided to just whistle. Hagen recorded the whistling himself because there was no time to search for talent. He never thought the producers would accept his work, but by that point, he didn’t care, he was frustrated by there demand for lyrics. As we know, they loved it, and the rest is Hollywood history. I’m hoping this is true. It was told to me by Burt Mustin who often acted on the show and you might remember as Gus the fireman on LEAVE IT TO BEAVER.

In looking over Aneta's Wikipedia page and according to the book, "Andy & Don: The Making of a Friendship and a Classic American TV Show" it mentions that she and Andy Griffith had an affair while working on the show plus Griffith was married at the time.

She buried him 5 hours after he died and had the home he shared with a previous wife demolished. Ms. Corsaut also played a role on Bonanza as a love interest for the character of Adam Cartwright played by Pernell Roberts. Of all of his character’s love interest she was my favorite. She was a beautiful lady of grace.

Having to wear a mask in a cemetery is the absolute height of absurdity.

will the actors be wearing facemasks when making that movie? no they won't be due to they are special and take precautions. Unlike us peons.

How I wish I can name all my favorites from the Andy Griffith Show ... I truly love the earlier seasons . I was a baby when the show 1st aired . I especially say Barney Fife ... he is funny and messy . It wasn't the same after Don Knotts left .
