| KY3 just put the show on hiatus. They had ran "Andy" non-stop since 1997. They were doing us a favor. It prevented us from growing tired of the show. I prefer the B&W episodes with Barney. What are your faves?

| "Yep...think I'll walk down to the ice cream parlor...." Whole routine so perfectly delivered by Don Knots, and the director let the whole thing fly undisturbed. Today's programs couldn't allow that much quiet......

Well, considering its on TV land 20 times a day, how can one get tired of it? It comes back to Mike "No Regard for the viewer" Scott and his cheapness. He could care less about the viewer.

| I liked the one where the " By the book " man from the state was there and and Andy had a silly tie on for Opie and they got locked in the cell But it ends with a guy shooting a gun and the state guy is wanting to call in help but Andy walks right up and takes the gun. So much Andy and Barney could be used today. And I always feel positive after watching. Should be a required show for some.

| It would be very hard to pick a favorite but I loves the ones with Opie and the telephone lineman "Ibet you can even make smoke come out of your ears", the track and field race and when he mothered the baby birds after killing their mama..."winkum will tell blinin, blinkin will tell nod, nod will tell Barney and Barney will tell you". There are way too many great characters and many many many great episodes.

| Or when Barney goes on stake out in Weavers Department Store and the thief turns out to be aliitle old lady shoplifter or Barney sets up the camera to catch a thief at Wally's and the evidence turns up a great picture of Deputy Fife, or when the preacher's sermon inspires an old fashion band concert..."Gomer, you get down there with them spiders..." and I love the one where Barney hits Gomer in the chest with a tomato. I think Floyd Lawson also had some classic words of wisdom in several episodes.

| Yes, DB I love the State Trooper episode...and Turner, the stakeout is great too. My favorites were the exploding goat and episodes with the Dillards. I prefer the B&Ws with Barney.

I think all the b/w episodes are excellent, many of those in color too.
You know, I was in Branson from late 72 through 1976 and when I went back in 1994 I kept looking for familiar faces of old friends and while at a Charlie Pride news conference I finally saw someone I recognized but could not put a name with the face until realized it was Rodney Dillard...one of the Darlin's. Had a good laugh with that.

| Still on of the " feel good " shows I wish we had more like them. I wonder how it would go over to have a modern black and white tv show. The older ones in black and white were my favorites could be because Barney and Floyd were there. Mr Weaver at Christmas was a good one but all were classics.

I waited on Rodney when I worked at a retail store in Springfield a few years back. He and his wife were very nice. That was unusual in the store I worked in.
I'm not as obsessive as most people in this area is about AGS. I'm also going to upset people by picking a color episode that I like.
Briscoe Darling proposes to Aunt Bea. Andy and Goober trying to scare him off with a bad luck omen of "a hoot owl in daylight."
Goober puts a plastic owl on fishing pole and lowers it out of a tree on to the hood of Darling's truck while he is visiting Aunt Bea. Briscoe sees it and tells Aunt Bea and Andy it is a bad sign. When Goober hears this he reels the owl back up into the tree. Briscoe then tells Andy and Aunt Bea that he had never seen "an owl fly straight up with out moving its wings." Goober starts to fall out of the tree, but catches himself. It trigers the reel on the fishing pole sending the plastic owl down. It is swinging upside down.
Briscoe tells the boys they better go home because something bad is about to happen because "that that owl ain't acting quite right."
