Barney Fife is one of the greatest characters in tv history. Those that disagree will spend time on The Rock. This clip is incomplete without his reciting the Preamble of the Constitution.
This guy was a natural, comic genius. His face told everything. What a character he was. I watch these episodes a hundred times. And, when I know what Barney is going to do, I start laughing. We are lucky to have had Barney for 6 seasons. His visits were not the same though. He was the greatest comic character of all time. Yes, we all know that once he left, the show was never the same. Sad.
I read an interview with Knotts’s daughter who said he was even cracking jokes on his deathbed. She had to leave the room to reconcile laughter thru her tears. RIP great entertainer
Curtis, We’re all impressed with your piety and self-righteousness, and I know you’re secretly proud of yourself for making this virtue-signaling off-topic response. Such is why so much of the world hates Christians.
I couldn't warm up to Warren after Barney left 😢 the show just wasn't the same without Barn 😭 He was hilarious 🤣 he would do anything for his devoted fans 👍 Rest In Peace 🙏💚
@@nancyloomis3046 Same here Nancy 👍 love watching The Andy Griffith show..I get a kick out of Andy when he teases Barney 😂 Barney tells him to put a red nose on and join the circus or Barney gets so mad that he messes up his hair 😂🤣
Don Knotts left the show after the 5th season because Andy told him (in the beginning) that the show was only gonna be on for five years, so in the fourth season Don started looking for work for when this show was over and ended up signing a contract with other TV companies, but when Don found out Andy was going to extend the show longer, Don offered to break his contracts if Andy was willing to give him a peace of ownership of the show, (Andy and his manager owned more than half rights of the show) when the offer was declined, well the rest we know as history.
@@kendallrivers1119 Those episodes are great, Especially The shoplifters when Ben Weaver yelled at Andy in that winy tone "Sheriff get him out of here!!" I laugh so hard at that.
I love this show. Even now years later I make time to watch it everyday. I've seen it a 100 times but he still cracks me up. A fine show with two fine Actors. They sadly don't make shows like this anymore. Barney, a little man with a huge Heart.
Barney, along with Ernest T., would make me laugh so much that my stomach would hurt. Humor like this is gone. It's all F this and F that now. Too bad.
The thing that made Barney work so brilliantly was Andy for him to bounce off of. Without the chemistry of those two the show wouldn't have worked. Barney needed Andy's character to work and Andy as the anchor and straight man needed Barney to play straight to. Perfect balance.
I totally agree! they were such good friends and I read that Andy would crack up laughing at Don so much during filming, he just thought Don was the funniest ever. they really had great chemistry and were a perfect balance! that's why we can watch these episodes a hundred times and never get tired of it!
Andy was the straight man. That much is written into the script. The straight man is as old as comedy itself and the role is as important as the comedic role, because the straight man gives the comic something to play off of. It's not that Andy let Don be the comic. Don was hired to to be the comic.
@@GradyPhilpott I don’t believe that’s how it came down. Andy was planned as the comic talent before Don was even in the picture. Don asked to be in the show after the fact and Andy immediately recognized that Don should be the comic and that he would better function as the straight man.
@@johndodge8999 That may be true, but it's still written into the script. Who then would have been the straight man, if it was not the sheriff? Would Knotts have been the sheriff and Griffith have been his comical sidekick? Somehow that doesn't ring true. Do you have a citation for your claim?
1:03 Now Here At The Rock, [Laughter] We Have 2 Basic Rules. Memorize Them So That You Can Say Them In Your Sleep. The 1st Rule Is: OBEY ALL RULES! 2nd Rule: DO NOT WRITE ON THE WALLS! (As It Takes A Lot Of Work To Erase Writing Off Of Walls.)
I think the first movie I saw Don Knotts in was No Time For Sergeants starring Andy Griffith. It was a pairing made in heaven. One of the funniest movies ever.
Don Knotts was so funny and naive, but so soft hearted. He really made the show funny, but ran a top notch Mayberry jail. Ernest T Bass,was really funny too.
He was a pretty darn good dramatic actor too, as in the scene of Andy s trial. Some of his mannerisms remind me so much of my father. I have a special love for Barney Fife!
@Liberty AboveAllElse Yes, I had forgotten about that one. It's too bad he was only a comedic actor. I mean, I never saw him on The Twilight Zone, or anything like that.
What a cast this show had, think about it, it takes alot of people to make it work, including the director too. They feed off each other and this show was back n the 60's. Barney is the best and there was NO one else that could bring cashew fudge to his sweetie THELMA LOU !!!
There was never supposed to even be a deputy on the show at all originally, it was all to be based on Andy's humor, hence the name of the show, Don Knotts met with the producer at his house and did his routine and convinced the producer to add him to the show!. Andy later said that by the second show, they all knew Barney would be the star of it. The producer later said, "if I am ever remembered at all, it will be for the person that discovered Don."
I don't know which episode is the funniest, where Barney has the toy cars refreshing Otis's driving skills. Or where them old men unhooked his side car from that motorcycle he bought to do "Check point chickie" with.. I roll Everytime I see them old men in front of the court house doing that.. Great job on the video..Thanks .
I love how Andy Griffith, in discussing the genesis of TAGS, always gave credit to Don Knotts for the success of the show. He said that with Barney delivering the laughs and him playing straight man, it just clicked. How fortunate that Knotts had just been released from the Steve Allen Show when the pilot ran, and that he was watching TV that night and saw it. The next day he rang Andy up and said, “Hey, don’t you need a deputy?” The rest is sitcom history.
I love all these clips of Barney Fife! The last one was probably one of the best because it showed how he wasn't afraid of those criminals who tried to bully and tease him. Most of the time Andy helped to keep him out of danger and trouble but this shows that Barney can stand up to people who dare try to disrespect him or his badge. He remembers what Andy told him about how the badge shows that you are the law and that people better respect that.
at 5:21 the man who sees Barney remove his dress has been identified on another site as Danny Thomas' brother, who was often an extra on the Andy Griffith Show.
I worked at a hospital in Arizona back in 2003, had a patient who was telling me she owned a restaurant “back in the day”, and “Otis, the town drunk would occasionally drive over from California on the weekends to patronize her restaurant. She would always try to comp his meal, but he would insist “No, No, I will sing for my supper”. And he did....And he was good!
I have watched this show for over 30 years (reruns). The other day my 24 yo son was here and, of course, I had the AGS on, and I said “sorry, baby, you can change channels” and he said “No, mama, this is my childhood. This has always been in the background, it’s part of my childhood”. I’ve never been so proud 🥲
To me Andy Griffith all time favorite show.i can watch it all day the show make you feel like family.andy and Don great team.when Don Nott left the show it was sad great show.
He created the funniest character I’ve ever seen. He used the old do it like you mean it trick and don’t try to be funny. The scene is already funny so he does it like he means business and it puts me in stitches. Thank you so much for this gem.
When Don Knotts left the show it just wasn't worth watching anymore! It became early Mayberry RFD!! The best episodes filmed in color were the ones that featured Barney coming back to visit!!
Todd Fowler, I always thought the same, The episode about the Supermarket robberies was a classic although Barney didn't visit Mayberry Andy visited him in Charlotte.
This show is and always will be ! Just well wrote , perfect cast and it had a peaceful place to film ! Nothing better then that ! Especially for its time !
I have watched Andy Griffith all my life I still watch this show from 9am untill 11am an I watch again at 3:30 until 7pm every morning an every evening the Andy Griffith show has respect self respect morals an values laughter singing ups an downs an most of all the good Lord is apart of Andy Griffith too theirs no other that compares to Andy Griffith till this day for me I will never get tired of watching the Andy Griffith show I love all the cast Andy, Aunt Bea, Opie, Barney the whole cast Andy Griffith is the best show ever
As great as Knotts was in comedic roles, he'd have been even greater in serious roles. His more serious bits here and there in these shows are actually my favorite Barney moments.
Like when the old mine caved in..he had no idea Helen and Andy had found another way out..they stayed there until Barney 'saved' them..it was rally cool..
I grew up in a small town a lot like Mayberry. My career took me to the big cities: Los Angeles, Phoenix, San Francisco. I retired in 2017 and returned to my home town and now live in the home where I grew up. You can go home again.
The clip where Barn is going over the rules with the prisoners and Andy's face is turned away.I'd bet real money in Vegas that was deliberate because he couldn't keep a straight face!
Back in the late 70's, we only had one tv, so I thank my dad for introducing me to Andy and Barney and Barney Miller, Wkrp. And I'm thankful to Me TV for keeping these shows going. And Mash.
Loved this show as a kid, I'm 59, still do but don't get watch it that often. Simpler time back during the filming and in my time, mostly for the better but not always. Anyway this show always gave me a warm fuzzy safe feeling.
This was good stuff, but you left out what I thought was Barney's finest moment of the series. It was the episode in which a publisher, who had a vendetta against Andy over a traffic ticket, tried to besmirch Andy in an article, and Andy was called to a hearing to address charges of malfeasance. The article featured some derogatory remarks that Barney unwittingly made about Andy, and he was called to the witness stand to explain what it was about. On hearing Barney's published statements, Andy is understandably disappointed and angry. But when Barney does an excellent job of exculpating Andy's actions on the witness stand, the hearing commissioner exonerates Andy of any wrongdoing. After the hearing ends, Barney approaches Andy, and with a somewhat feeling of guilt and shame, extends his hand his as a way of consolation. Andy, although initially angry at Barney for what he first thought was betrayal, in turn magnanimously shakes it, showing his admiration for his deputy. Truly one of the most touching moments in the history of the series.
Well said a great synopsis. I enjoyed the hotel dectective where Barney thought the thief was him. The criminal was a superman bad guy. Turned out good because Andy came to the rescue once again
Andy has his back turned bc he's trying not to drop to floor laughing his head off! 🤣 Don Knotts--Comic genius. Knotts broke up Andy a bunch of times. When Knotts left the show to pursue a movie career IMO, Griffith stopped enjoying doing the show. Don Knotts could not be replaced! There was no one funnier or more likeable than Barney Fife! 💖❤😍😘
it's not until you get a little older that you realize what a fine actor Don Knotts was. His range was incredible. Thank you Don... fine job!
He deserved every Emmy that he was awarded.
I promise you that I never get tired of watching this show!I love y'all so much 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾❤️❤️❤️😊
Don Knotts was the best. He and Andy Griffith had great chemistry💙

Your so right
Don Knotts was the show!!👍💪😎
He was the show
He came back as a guest star 3 or 4 times. He won an Emmy for each appearance.
Then when Andy retired and it became Mayberry RFD it wasn't funny at all.
Warren was an idiot.
I loved Barny.and still do. I never get tired of watching this amazing show
I'M WATCHING AGAIN RIGHT NOW, LOL! THE 'DANGEROUS CRIMINAL' WAS 'RICOCHET RABBIT', JUST HOPPING AROUNG, LOL!
Don Knotts a American icon !!! Forever loved , just watched a few on Metv
Barney, along with Ernest T., would make me laugh so much that my stomach would hurt. Humor like this is gone. It's all F this and F that now. Too bad.
You are on point some of my most enjoyable episodes was Barney and earnest t. Bass I,m 61 now and still enjoy when I can see it
How true !!
You're absolutely right daisy great comedy like this will never be matched again don Howard and Andy were the best
absolutely right about that
How about his "reciting" of the Preamble to the Constitution? Unbelievable comic genius.
Lollll classic
Supporting actor, Don Knotts carried the show
You could even say he really SUPPORTED the show. 😉
Well he won several Emmies..
Carried? A bit disrespectful to the great work of the WHOLE cast. But Don was certainly the breakout and deservedly so. As well as Gomer of course.
The thing that made Barney work so brilliantly was Andy for him to bounce off of. Without the chemistry of those two the show wouldn't have worked. Barney needed Andy's character to work and Andy as the anchor and straight man needed Barney to play straight to. Perfect balance.
Wrong. Almost any actor could have played Andy as long as they had Knotts by their side. He was that good.

Lol!! Yeah, oh! That's just a diversion. Look! He just floats that arm right out there. Oh he's smooth.. lol!!!

As funny as Barney was if we had more people like him we'd have less crime today.
Here's a funny, when Barney busted thru that wall, it became Emmett's fix it shop n the later shows and that lady sitting there is Emmett's wife.
I guess the people of Mayberry got used to hearing a gunshot coming from the courthouse once in a while. They’d say “Barney’s on duty”.
I grew up in a small town a lot like Mayberry. My career took me to the big cities: Los Angeles, Phoenix, San Francisco. I retired in 2017 and returned to my home town and now live in the home where I grew up. You can go home again.
The last scene you selected was a great choice! Thanks!
They said as a joke on the set it was called "The Don Knotts show"
The clip where Barn is going over the rules with the prisoners and Andy's face is turned away.I'd bet real money in Vegas that was deliberate because he couldn't keep a straight face!
I love Andy & Barn still watch the show
Don Knotts was one of my favorite actors and i miss him R.I.P my Friend Mr Knotts (1924-2006)
Andy was such a great man I grew up on this show and mash.. but more so this.. I learned so much from this show
So this is why Mr. Furley was so nuts!😂💜
Back in the late 70's, we only had one tv, so I thank my dad for introducing me to Andy and Barney and Barney Miller, Wkrp. And I'm thankful to Me TV for keeping these shows going. And Mash.
Loved this show as a kid, I'm 59, still do but don't get watch it that often. Simpler time back during the filming and in my time, mostly for the better but not always. Anyway this show always gave me a warm fuzzy safe feeling.
This was good stuff, but you left out what I thought was Barney's finest moment of the series. It was the episode in which a publisher, who had a vendetta against Andy over a traffic ticket, tried to besmirch Andy in an article, and Andy was called to a hearing to address charges of malfeasance. The article featured some derogatory remarks that Barney unwittingly made about Andy, and he was called to the witness stand to explain what it was about. On hearing Barney's published statements, Andy is understandably disappointed and angry. But when Barney does an excellent job of exculpating Andy's actions on the witness stand, the hearing commissioner exonerates Andy of any wrongdoing.
After the hearing ends, Barney approaches Andy, and with a somewhat feeling of guilt and shame, extends his hand his as a way of consolation. Andy, although initially angry at Barney for what he first thought was betrayal, in turn magnanimously shakes it, showing his admiration for his deputy. Truly one of the most touching moments in the history of the series.
Well said a great synopsis. I enjoyed the hotel dectective where Barney thought the thief was him. The criminal was a superman bad guy. Turned out good because Andy came to the rescue once again
Top of my list of old school 80s or 90s every night reruns after practice dinner's ready shows.
Great video. He had several memorable moments on TAGS. He was talented and great character. Melanie
Andy has his back turned bc he's trying not to drop to floor laughing his head off! 🤣 Don Knotts--Comic genius. Knotts broke up Andy a bunch of times. When Knotts left the show to pursue a movie career IMO, Griffith stopped enjoying doing the show. Don Knotts could not be replaced! There was no one funnier or more likeable than Barney Fife! 💖❤😍😘
