Mimi pia Alan, mimi pia rafiki.

My daddy died in 2016 and this show reminds me of growing up with his side of the family. We even live in a small town in NC just like the show.

Watch it with my dad, I’m 12. Thanks for reminding me to never take it for granted👍

I'm so sorry my brother

Ya as a huge fan of the show nobody watches seasons 6-8

agreed

💯…When I turn it on ..if it’s color I turn channel

Why did Don Knotts leave the show as he was so good and equally funny?

@@suzanneberger8202 He signed a movie contract that he couldn't get out of.

I miss those days as well. I remember when we could leave the keys in our cars and our homes unlocked; never worrying about thieves or evil doers. Those days are long gone.

How right you are. I grew up in a small town of 1900 people in the 40-50s today it’s 150.000 plus, taint the same.

@Geek Vape You are some of the lucky few. It is good to know that such places exist today in this fallen world. Thank you for that heart warming information; it is greatly appreciated. God Bless you.

@@millerscorner2 I wonder why? What has changed about society since those days?

I also grew up in rural southeast Missouri. I knew all of my neighbors and in fact I loved my neighbor like a third grandfather. He was a single old gentleman who had a heart of Gold. Growing up I had from my parents small farm to the Mississippi River as my playground. I roamed the woods and fields of my area with my group of friends. I learned to appreciate the people and their kindness that they had shown me. Everyone looked out for everyone. My friends parents were allowed to discipline me and my parents disciplined my friends. In fact when one of my friends parents caught me smoking not only did my buddies dad whoop my butt he called my parents and my dad whopped my butt. It didn’t work. I’m still smoking 43 years later. Small town life, in my opinion, is the best life a person can live. In fact my hometown is still basically the same as when I grew up there. There is only a little better than 3,200 people. Everyone, for the most part, still looks out for each other. Kids still play in the same woods that I did way back when. We still have neighborhood block parties and Friday night football still is the best night of the week. I truly miss being young and wild and free, roaming those hills. I still dove and deer hunt in those woods.

Me too hunny! The show ,for me, personally is like a huge comfort blanket. The show just makes you feel better. I wish I great up back then

I've been doing the same. It puts me in a calming mood.

yep!!... my all-time fav.. my dad (71) and i (41) quiz each other all the time... it's gotten to where the questions are getting ridiculous.. haha..

My grandma watches it every morning shes 85 she loves it.

@@kdogg6781 where was Otis' first arrested for public intoxication? No Googling! Lol

Me too ! I record them from TVLAND I watch them after watching CNN cuz CNN is so depressing lol

@@nightrider5109 Heck yeah.. It also comes on a channel called Sundance to I record them on both TVland too lol ... Those same 2 guys that always pick on Barney 😂

@Timothy Orten hell yeah. I just purchased it too

Danny....me too. 😁😁

@@thabighurt6002 Awesome!!

Mine too. :0)

My family grew up in West Jefferson and Lansing N.C...i miss the trips there to the mountains an seeing all the beauty.

@@dwade6322 Where do u live? I moved to Gaffney SC last year after spending 33 years in So Cal. SC and NC r both very beautiful states.

Let 'er rip!

i love this mental vision..

Those are great memories

press f for respects

@@amymckinney1397 pick

Alcoholism ran in my family. Nothing really funny or amusing about that. Foster Brooks was another one I really didn't care for.

I'm not sure what episode it was but Andy asks Otis are you drunk? Otis says no! I'm stone sober but I spe'c I'll get over it. Or something like that. I use that line any chance I get.

Same here. I was born 1985

Hello beautiful how are you

Haha. I remember this clearly

Also when Andy tried everything to wake Barney up and he finally just snapped his fingers

My favorite was when Barney bought that motorcycle. When they jokingly removed his side car, that was so funny!

I came to the comments to see if anyone mentioned Matlock. When I was growing up we'd watch Matlock and Murder She Wrote every night when it was on. Andy Griffith show had been on for years already but I'd watch it on Nick At Night along with The Patty Duke Show 🙂 They don't make shows like they use to.

i saw goober at babptist hospital gym lifting weights.

Goober and Gomer weren't co-workers at the gas station, Goober took over after Gomer joined the Marines.

@@giraffesareselfish9563 i agree you are right i did not go into time line but given the first comment i was on point and to you hillbilly way to be on top of shit

@@Hellyeah88833 lol, I know way too much about this show.

A MayBerry Mystery....

NOOO!! otis campbell the drunk was married!!!

Rayve Hollister. He didn’t appear often though

Emmitt was married

@@ep_aesthetics5917 yep, his wife was Martha

The main reason the main characters (except Otis) weren't married is because the writers said it was too difficult to write for married couples.

We look forward to seeing you there! :0)

Been there a few times. I live down south from there. Really nice place to visit. Check out all of Main Street. Walk through the shops. Also the museum’s. It can be a lot of walking for older people. My mother in law was wore out. I hope y’all enjoy.

"You know how to whistle, don't you? You just put your lips together and blow." Lauren Bacall

Same

That's because the lights would reflect off the glass and the film would be full of bright light blots.

@@jackkircher1755 So it was filmed on a sound stage and not outside, gotcha!

well thats shoe business.

"AAHHHHH.. there he (barney) goes off the deep end, just like you said" "FLOYD!!!" "my lips are sealed".

@@kdogg6781 Did Calvin Coolidge say that?

@@giraffesareselfish9563 no, hillbilly cat, Calvin Coolidge didn’t say everything.

Aunt Bea was from Virginia

@@docbrown6610 Thanks, that explains it. I worked with a guy from Virginia and though he definitely had an accent, it was close to us Yankees' way of talkin'. Stay safe.

@@docbrown6610 I think it was West Virginia. In The Banjo Playing Deputy she mentioned she was from the same town as Jerry in West Virginia.

Peggy the nurse?

@@clydekimsey7503 No, Peggy the barber....🤣🤣

I would call the town or school and see if it true.

He did teach music there!

Actually he had his stroke during the 3rd season. Convicts At Large was the last episode he did before the stroke in 1962, which is during the shows run and he was gone for 2 years, returning in 1964 in the episode Andy Saves Gomer. Even during the 1st season, it is considered the shows run. Just saying.

So true. The show without knotts wasn’t that great.

Colorizing the show served only to ruin the effect of nastalgia the show has. There are very few of them I liked. I have taken several trivia quizzes in the show and rarely got a question wrong.

I agree, I thought Thelma Lou would have been better for Andy than Helen! Thelma Lou was way too good for Barney!!!!

The windows would reflect light like a mirror and shown the tv camera and crew.

just because they are liberals doesn't make them bad people.

What the hell are you talking about?

all the main characters are liberal and very good people working for the poor.

Hello

floyd never left really

The show got bad before Floyd died, even his character was kind of bad during the color episodes
