Don't we all? (miss the good ol days)

trapstill Jumping : Have you ever watched Sanford and Son on Television? Red Fox was Fred Sanford. He kills me with his funny antics . Fred use to pick on His sister in law Ester. 😂 here. 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸 great TV show too.

I know where you're coming from... me too. ;-D

@TheDodicat Found the racist. If you think you aren't, you're wrong. You definitely aren't thinking right. If you happen to suffer from a mental malady that impedes your thought processes, then I by all means apologize; it never feels good punching down, as it were.

@@MrRex1949 yeah I love Sanford and Son show too.

everyday . im in my early 40s and i watch andy Griffith every day .

@@TheBeaver50 I was thinking the same thing when I saw the thumbnail. Going through a tough time recently. When i saw Don Knotts in my suggested list, I knew I had to click and be taken back to a time when life was simple and wholesome.

One of my favorites.

I watch the Andy Griffith show every day also as an enjoyable way to unwind from it all also! They just don't make 'em like this anymore, sadly.

Boy you nailed that one , laughter is good therapy ! We need a lot more of it in 2019

There will also never be another you!!!!! lol

Andy, is that you? lol

I think David Hyde pierce as niles on frasier is the closest

@@mr.wizard2974 ?

I still the store on TV

M L ...don knotts was awesome in later last years...he really appreciated the fans

M L I will NEVER EVER forget MR. LIMPETT, that fish movie.

@@samuelparker9882 I only saw that movie one time about 20 years ago and remember it like I saw it yesterday

There's a place in the eternities for ole Barney. It will be grand! I hope to look him up there.

Wow! Thank you for sharing; it must have been such fun to visit the sets back then!

Timothy Cook I put a flower on his grave at Westwood Memorial.

That is a memorial stone you saw Sir. Don is buried in Morgantown,WV beside his Mother. I am from Morgantown and I have visited his grave many times.

Thanks, Trudy!

Trudy Jackson me too...sad to watch. Where does time go. Wonderful video 💗💗💗

Trudy Jackson being from West Virginia we are so proud of Don Knotts. There is a street in Morgantown, WV, named after him.

Same

Trudy Jackson I loved him also. That movie The Dumpling Gang that Knott's was in is hilliarous! They said that Andy & Knotts were bestfriends in real life too. Look up Aunt Bee. She was a totally different person in life. I also love Bonanza, Gunsmoke, Bewitched & the Carol Burnett Show with her slapstick comedy & Gillian's Island, The Beverly Hillbillies, lol. There's a lot more I could mention but u get my drift. I love all those reruns. A lot of the old movies were great too! Back then in these shows there were no nudity & they never cussed either. They were good clean watching which proves there's no need for all that! These days if an ass or a tit isn't hanging out, something must be wrong with the film! Using the word f&%k is common place. I wish we could go back to those days & get rid of the filth that's in movies today. Parents didn't have to worry about censoring their kids either, lol.

Bet Andy is still looking for bullets with Andy in heaven lol

Thanks to DVD box sets. I can watch evey episode commercial free as many times and in any order I choose.

"You beet the bees knees you know that Andy you really just beet the bees knees"

😂😅

Especially now, the world is filled with sh!t

Today's sitcom thinks dirty stuff/porn is funny..and..I'm sick of butt hurt asshole saying "oh that's not politically correct..we can't use that.." nothing made today is funny. They don't know how to make people laugh anymore..which is why I watch old shows like this.

The only comedian in television I enjoyed as much as Don Knotts was Jerry Seinfeld.

Thats becouse they are all Demons masquerading as comedians

So true.👍🏾

Thank you for the nice comment.

stratmanjoe I

@Dayga ...Wow, why so angry? Why are you even watching this if you weren't a fan of his? I wouldn't really call him a "thespian", but an entertainer. And he was a great entertainer.

Dayga, you're remarks are so inappropriate & unnecessary! Chill Out, Dude! Don Knotts gave people a little happiness in a tough world to live in!

+Jan Lopreste Thanks, and it's really cool that you actually met him. Nice to hear he was kind offscreen.

Alpha 11 Don was very humble and a bit embarrassed that the town named a major road in his honor. I got to meet him when I was barely 4, and he was dressed as Barney. I was very close with lots of adults surrounding him. I looked up and said "You're so TALL!" Everyone laughed. He picked me up and spoke with me and my daddy. Then he gave me a (fake) bullet. "You know the sheriff only gives me one!" He said in character. That was 54 years ago. I still have that bullet.

THERE WOLL NEVER BE ANOTHER Deputy BARNEY Fife,He made us all laugh with bus great humor even in Threes Company! I still look forward every day to watch old re runs,i love his sniffing out moonshiners andhis runins wuth OtisCampbelll,my favorite us when Homer steals his girlfriend and he goes bananas, the whole cadt was so entertaining,my grandsons watch Andy Griffith with me,Hod bless you Don Knotts!True story

GOD BLESS YOU DON KNOTTSFOR BRINGINGLAUGHTER AND JOY INTO OUR HOME!

THE WHOLE CAST WAS SO ENTERTAINING,GOMER AND GOOBER,THEY WERE HILLARIOUS TOO!TRUE STORY!

You aren't kidding about back when tv had class. Todays tv has become a social disaster. I seldom if ever watch it. Don Knotts was great, especially alongside Andy Griffith.

No doubt, back then you'd watch an evening show and feel better about life and your fellow man.

PrAKtikal Nurse Very True

MorbidManMusic I agree, there was a ton of racism. That was always the best and funniest stuff. Oh how I long for the good ole days.

I'm 32 and I'd give my left testicle for more shows like this.. this new garbage that's now is the reason I got rid of my cable.. I only have an antenna to watch local channels

Yes I agree

Heather Williams 😁

It would be just like him to go to that 50th reunion. There will never be another Don Knotts. Or Andy Griffith, Jim Nabors, George Lindsey, and who could forget Hal (Otis Campbell) Smith. Also, Howard Morris A/K/A Ernest T. Bass.

Can’t forget about Floyd the barber, Howard Sprague, Emmett Clark, and one of my all time favorites, Briscoe Darling. One of my fav lines in TV was when the camera panned over to the Darling brothers with their ever present bored, stupid looks on their faces and Briscoe saying “they’s all keyed up!”

Heather Williams what a lovely, heartwarming story! I'm in my mid-50s, so I have seen a lot of him! Still, I would have to say that his role as Mr. Ferley on threes company stands out for me! RIP Donny boy!

My dad and don was in the same class at WVU

Me too. I grew up watching the Andy Griffith show when I was little. I loved Barney Fiff. Brings back alot of memories.

Hart oooh

Probably because, even after all these years, you realize that Don was one of the best. His comedy was never at anyone's expense. No sex, race, religion, politics, or any other group suffered, just his character. On the Andy Grith Show, how many times did you know what was going to happen and yet got a laugh from it. Then the physical performance, the fact that his whole body was into the act. He was gifted but truly worked hard at his trade. Very hard to forget Barnie or any of his other characters. Who else could of pulled them off and made them as memorable as he did? I am afraid whenever Don is brought up, we that grew up watching his performances will always get a little bit saddened by our loss.

@@ronfullerton3162 - Very well stated. My wife and I often communicate with each other using quotes from old movies, mostly comedies. The majority of our quotes come from Don Knotts movies. Clean and wholesome and still funny after all these years. Apparently it works well because we celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary back in June. Laughter truly is the best medicine and Don was/is still the best imho. Edit: While remembering that Don passed away brings sadness, watching almost any of his shows/movies perks me back up. Funny how that works...

Thank the Lord for the showing of the reruns of this great show! Rest in peace Andy and Barney!

Thank you for the awesome comment!

They are not crude and mean-spirited, today they are like snowflakes, thin-skinned and they don't stand for nothing

Knotts was never funny. He just acted like an idiot and waa not very bright.

Wandering gypsy 3 Spot on comment.

@@StanSwan Don Knotts was well known and revered, Ray Pellerin is not.

@R I truth.....only snowflakes I see are the ones saying "todays comedy is offensive" XD

Yep😅 No one understands me for it. I've loved the show since child hood. It was dropped from Netflix a couple of months ago, July 2020 thought, what am I going to do now? Thankfully it is currently streaming on Amazon Prime💕

"😮😁" Wow! what a blessing! you had to have been in your Glory!!"😍😁

Thank you, Connie, Don Knotts was someone to watch about always wonderful and funny onset whats your favorite Don Knotts movie?

"May he (RIP)"🌹😳

+Edward Hillyer Thank you, Edward, for watching. We really appreciate your thoughtful comment!

+Motor1 Thanks for watching and commenting! Barney was the best!

Great sense of humor, Motor1. We could use more like you.

That's awesome Motor1. What a nice thing. The picture too. Thank you for your service.

Funniest gimmick...Deputy Barney Fife was allowed to have one bullet, but he had to keep it in his pocket. Yes, simpler times. These days, even rural law enforcement has to be prepared to deal with deadly force.

+kimmyjeans2 Thank you, Kimmyjeans!

God bless you Kim Mr. Knotts we surely be remembered by all, God bless him What's is your favorite Don Knotts Movie?

luna starr As a grown man knowing that Andy Griffith was by his side just about brought a tear to my eyes that’s so beautiful

You are a single man

For sure!

Tim McKinney I never found John Ritter to be particularly funny. And I am sick of 3 s company. The other 3 are classic

@@schmim1 Amen to that. When I saw Ritter's face I couldn't switch the channel fast enough.

+Pear CD Thank you for watching, and for the poignant comment.

*His last name is literally spelled in the title and in every comment and you still got it wrong*

Me too. The man was HILARIOUS

Andy is a very nice person to listen to on television & his son Opie also.

Watch it when I was a kid and still watch the show once and a while

Absolutely!! Never get tired of it. "And they used Bon Ami!"

That a boy *LUTHER*

melissa saint one of my all time favorites

Svengoolie.

Any fans of *-Johnny Bravo-* here?

I have watched this since the early 60's , I watch it every night in reruns , it never gets old . I love Barney !

True and Andy Griffith was one hell of a straight man for Knotts to work of off.

vern wallen True statement. Just like Frank Sutton as Sergeant Carter

vern wallen I agree.

He was the backbone of the funny-bone 😅😅😅😅 He and Andy were like ink and paper together on the show.

what is a pinion ? you mean like rack and pinion steering ?

My dad was born the same year

R.N N it makes me feel sad

Absolutely so.

We grow up watching them or even growing up with some of them, so they are a real part of our lives.. we see them getting old and ignore the fact that we are too until it hits that yes we're getting old too. hence the heavy heart. Where did the yrs go.."it was just yesterday" 😢

Hello Luretta Andy was great... we are now in a computerized world where technologies are used for any form of publicity of movies, comedy videos E.t.c where are you from luretta?

chodeshadar18 , so do i.

He was a great actor. Glad he left a great deal of work for years to come.

+John NY Thanks, John! Don Knotts was just amazing.

But don't forget his guest appearance after Barney had moved up to Raleigh (season 7, ep 18) Andy comes up there and helps him solve a tough case, making Barney look good and gaining him respect of the Raleigh PD. One of the best shows that season.

John NY I

John NY I agree and am grateful to learn the story of why he left. The Warren character offended me as a child lol. I detested him, but I suppose in my childish mind he was trying to replace Barney. No one could do that. As an adult I now can enjoy those episodes also haha.

John NY I agree!

Me to I thank I'll always watch the Andy Griffith show! Thanks biggest D-

+PacificAirwave144 Thank you for watching!

You are so right! A very good trip throughout Don's life without getting stuck in any certain period, good or bad. Well done indeed. I do not think any two physical comedian actors have ever co.e together as well as Don and Tim. Their shows were a hoot!

Boii Villa ha ha I grew up watching that show and I just saw an episode yesterday.

So Great. So nice of guy. Memories yes.
