The Andy
Griffith Show ran for 8 years from 1960 to 1968 on CBS television. It was
never out of the Top 10 in ratings and only ended its run because Andy Griffith decided to move on to other projects. Its final season was rated number
1 and it went out on top. The show featured widower Sheriff Andy Taylor (Andy Griffith) raising his young son Opie (Ron Howard) in the small North Carolina town of Mayberry.
With a stellar cast (Don Knotts as Deputy Barney Fife,
Frances Bavier as Aunt Bee, Betty Lynn as Thelma Lou, Aneta Corsaut as Helen Crump, Jim Nabors as Gomer Pyle, George Lindsey as Goober Pyle as well as memorable characters like Ernest T. Bass, The Fun Girls and Rafe Hollister) the show is still enjoyed today
as one of the best sitcoms ever made. Through re-runs and dvds fans can enjoy getting
to know the folks of Mayberry all over again. Please be sure to stop by our own Floyd's Barbershop, the TAGS forum, where you can
enjoy talking about the show with other fans!
