[tanquantwal]

I would LOVE to live in Mayberry. So peaceful, quiet, and serene.

[SMYLZZ29]

when you watch Andy its like you go into a different world i would love to live in mayberry i agree they need more series like these thanks for posting

[t44florida]

Can anyone tell me why or how phone numbers where referred to such as Goobers number "371J." If "J" was a number like on modern phones, then way did they simply say 5 instead of J?

[Teflon65]

What was the episode when a man comes through town (possibly played by this same actor), and he has similar circumstances, but also has a car telephone?

[iplayddr3789]

My god what a wonderful show. I'm 21 and I feel that I am the only person my age (at least that I know) that has ever watched Andy. Been doing so since before I could remember, probably seen each episode at least 40 or 50 times.

@iplayddr3789

I'm 21 too and I've been watching this show since I was a kid. Love it!!! They just don't make shows this good anymore.

[GroverKent]

@melissacouser I'm 22 and my parents practically raised me on shows like Andy, Bewitched, Leave it to Beaver, I Dream of Jeannie, Green Acres, etc.

I agree, they don't make shows like this anymore... but I'm trying to break into television myself, and I hope to make those kind of shows again. More people would rather watch these kinds of shows as opposed to all the reality crap and such that's on TV today.

Oh, for those beautiful, quiet Sunday mornings, the hush, the church bells, everyone walking to church, then home. The only thing open here was a bakery that had special hours on the Sabbath, everyone picked up fresh bread and sweets for Sunday dinner and afternoon company, but closed in plenty of time for their employees to have their day at home. We were all better off with a day of rest.

@VictoriaRu29

I agree, in today's world the stores WANT to be open on sunday and make their employees work. I've been there before at Home Depot. Everyone wants to work on something on sundays instead of taking it easy. I don't know what made people become like that. This episode showed me what it could have been in today's society.

This is what life was 50 yrs ago. I am only 29 but my parents grew up in the 50's and 60's, they knew what was going on then.

Isn't that a 1962 Lincoln Continental convertible?

[Autovision3000]

@bartist11 Yes it is!! ain't she sweet,,,

[itcrowd87]

I love this show so much. This episode in particular is one of my favorites. I like to watch it when I am feeling stressed. I just love the quiet peaceful scenes where they just sit and talk/sing.

[FloydHendrix]

The pickle one, the "put the meat back in the freezer and call the man" one, and "citizens arayest" are my top 3. Andy Griffith(the b&w ones), The Honeymooners(the filmed ones not the taped ones), and most of Dick van Dyke I can watch forever.

[rhodeislandbob]

one of my favs

[toonful]

you wan your suit to get soft,..a classic

[MrChristian326]

Yeah ... I remember when everything was closed on Sundays, except for small corner "smoke shops." You either rested or the whole family went to Church. Heck - you wouldn't even see/hear any of your neighbours cutting their lawns either! Everything could wait until Monday morning.

[brotherjon100]

Not open on Sunday was known as "Blue Laws." Even here in the deep bible belt south most places are open and the food joints are full of church folks.

[coashddjj2]

@McIntyreMichaelS I so agree with you! This is one of the greatest TV shows. I wish Hollywood had the talent and morals to write a show like this today.

[flipside1545]

i always come back to your channel after work for a pick-me-up!! thanks buddy!!

[bwild61]

This one and The Pickle Story are my favorites.

[mompood]

It's difficult to name a favorite episode of The Andy Griffith Show,but I would have to say this is one of my favorites.

[68gordo]

BEST SHOW EVER RELAX AND HAVE A BEER U SOULD TRY IT SOME TIME ....

[endorphinz]

Is this the only time they've shown Johnny Paul? lol

[McIntyreMichaelS]

My favorite moments in Andy Griffith are those where nothing much is happening. It may be just two of the players sitting somewhere. The conversation, what there is of it, is inconsequential. Action, nonexistent. These scenes don't advance the story lines and seem to serve no purpose. No other show dared to be so prodigal with its screen time. But it was precisely these scenes that made America fall in love with this series. These scenes were like a healing balm for our troubled souls.

[soulstice99]

well said!

[SpaceAceTX]

@McIntyreMichaelS Funny someone else feels that way. After a bad day at work I come home, pop in a dvd of Andy and tell my wife "I need some therapy" it works. Peaceful, caring people putting others first, you don't see that on the streets of Dallas. Makes me miss small town southern Illinois, middle of farm land, good people. In an interview Andy said the show was based on love, family and God. Now people are scared to say God but not to cuss, kill or drink, really sad.

[GroverKent]

@SpaceAceTX It's not that people are scared to talk about God these days, but that the television culture is so "politically correct", that you can't talk about God, or religion or anything like that (remember Leave it to Beaver) otherwise, the atheists will be offended, and throw a hissy fit.

But you have a point, not just cussing, killing, or drinking, but abusing drugs, robbing homes and businesses, having pre and extra marital sex, etc.

[CadillacL]

@McIntyreMichaelS I agree. It may not seem much on the surface but, still my fav.

[Autovision3000]

@McIntyreMichaelS

Oh how right you are!!! Talk about therapeutic. I'm telling you every last Andy Griffith can bring a tear to the eye. Weather its a happy one a sad one, or even or a cliff hanger, Therese no another program in the history of TV That compares to good old Andy and Maybary. Thank GOD for youtube!

[pingdave]

@McIntyreMichaelS

Thanks alex! I agree, the less they do, the better the show is. This is my favorite episode hands down. It seems to lower my blood pressure and relax me when I watch Andy Griffith. Esp. this episode. Nothing like sitting on a porch.

Thanks!

[TheGlenabus]

Isn't this the same man who gave Aunt Bea a job as the Foster Lady?. She did a commercial for a furniture polish.

[431516020205]

yes!!!

[TomBarristerX]

Yes, both were played by veteran actor Robert Emhardt, who played a variety of villains, doctors, judges, clerks, etc. Emhardt also had a long career on Broadway.

[skipplet]

My favorite episode as well. If I had to pick one episode that showed what Andy Griffith was all about, it's this one.

[DCMan06]

Mine too. I've been waiting for someone to put this video on here. thx so much for doing it AlexMO

[jackieorocks]

Does anyone remember the two episodes with Jack Nicholson??

[dars2607]

'if MR Tucker says he's got gas, he's got gas!' LOL

[bigkellyr]

I kind of liked the one with Bill Bixby. Although I loved the one with Barbara Eden.

[Chawman]

This has to be my favorite episode out of all of them.

[BradleyZ32]

This is my favorite episode as well
