    Several months ago, Andy gave an interview talking about the cast; and Don inparticular, Stating that he and Don were so close as friends but could never tell one another how they felt. But he said through tears that when he spoke to him in the last days before he passed in 2006; that what he was most proud of was that they both told one another just how much they loved one another. There will never be anyone alse like them.

    Every time I hear the whistling theme of "The Andy Griffith Show" it reminds me of my family in the early 60s when I was in elementary school. "The Andy Griffith Show" was the one show that the whole family watched. My dad would laugh so hard at Don Knotts he would lose it. I remember sometimes he would still be laughing at the breakfast table the next morning.

    Why does TV just ignore this market today? What do we have that compare with Andy Griffith, Hogan's Heroes or some of the variety shows they used to run? Nothing. That's what. Most of these reality TV shows are garbage.

      Bullseye on your comment! You're so right. I enjoyed those shows so much growing up back then. Andy Griffith, Gomer Pyle, Hogan's Heroes, Gilligan's Island, F-Troop, The Munsters, Patty Duke, and on the quality drama side: Bonanza, Gunsmoke, Star Trek, Dragnet, Daniel Boone, and Hawaii 5-0 to name a few. We had major societal issues during the 60s and 70s, but TV was still decent enough that adults and kids alike had good shows to watch.

This was an era of pure comedy, where they depended on funny lines not distasteful language etc. If only the world could go back to those days, what a world it would be again, but sadly that has gone forever

      Don Knotts was not just a comic, he was an actor who made you believe he was who he was playing. When you watched the show you saw Barney Fife, not an actor saying lines. There were great comics back then, such as Bob Hope and Jackie Gleason, Red Skelton, but they did not have the acting ability that Don Knotts did. IMO.

The world today is so crazy and scary at times, so I am deeply thankful of shows like this - really comforting to my soul. I enjoyed all of the characters on the show and Aunt Bea was so classic as well . She was strong, sweet and supportive. I watch this show a lot and It keeps me grounded. I am grateful to all who were associated with this wonderful show. Hugs and thank you to spsimmons for posting!

    These two bigger than life Men had the kindest souls God ever placed in a person.
    It was truly fun getting to grow up during that era.
    It's sad to me that the kids of today, will never get to experience that innocence that my generation got to grow up with like in the 50's & 60's.
    Oh how I long for those days again!

      Man, ain't that the truth? Today's TV is pure trash! Its not simply coincidence either! its all part of the agenda to dumb down our children, to make them mindless zombies, who cant see no difference between good and bad OR right and wrong. It trickles down from the propaganda news, to the filth they choose to do reality shows on, down to the Disney channel pushing homosexuality(in subtle ways, of course), to TBS who has filled their episodes with Illuminati symbols. I use to love watching the Andy Griffith show! the Flinstones, Sanford and Son, Beverly Hillbillies, Happy Days, and all the other wholesome programming of the 70's and 80's era.

    This was one of the best television shows that ever aired. I recently introduced my six-year-old daughter to the show. She loves the show. I wish they still made shows such as this. Clean, simple, and funny.

    Andy and Barney, Capn Kangaroo and Mr. Greenjeans, Mr. Rogers - all wonderful shows with very wholesome and caring characters to grow up on. Miss them all so much and the simpler uncomplicated times long since lost! None of them will ever, ever be replaced!

    @luvagoodsongyeah Před 8 lety +15

    R.I.P. Andy and Don, you certainly gave us some entertainment over the years with other shows other than TAGS, when I was just 12 years old, now 66. In fact one of my favourite shows ever was Matlock (and still watch repeats over and over) where Andy was a brilliant lawyer. Don put in a couple of mad appearances from time to time, which were quite funny. You could tell they were very good friends as they interacted more like brothers with their body language. We have these shows to remember them by and of course Don for his famous characters he played

    Back when Andy Griffith was a teacher my grandmother was in one the last classes he had before he moved on to doing the show. She told he was as nice a man as you'd expect him to be, and was just like he portrayed his character on the show.

    I'm 67 years old, wife and I just finished reviewing the series again on Netflix. It is just as funny today as when I watched it as a kid, and not one episode of the hundreds made failed to be a classic of its own. I guess the magic of the show is the actors loved each other, worked as a real family. Shows today are forever changing cast members, followed by news reports of the fighting, and hate on the set of the show. Sad, the simple days of the past which made for good television are gone forever.
