It must be the very first episode: the one where Andy's housekeeper is getting married and moving away, and Aunt Bee comes to live with them. She doesn't do anything right, but at the end, when she is getting in the truck to leave, Opie comes running out and says, "I don't want her to leave, what will she do....she can't fish or play baseball...She needs me!"

He was a really good actor. Watch "A Face in the Crowd" (1957), he was a really rotten guy, but a good movie

All the characters played their parts so well. Wouldn’t be great if we could go back to that life ?

I[m with DebbieJJ, my favorite is the very first one. Opie is so little, I just have to watch it.

I love the Christmas show where the moonshiner and his whole family get put in jail for Christmas because a mean old man demands it. Love his change of heart at the end of the episode.

Andy's overdone Southern drawl is a bit much, tho. Can really get on your nerves if you are a Southerner. Love Barney Parney Poo in all episodes, and Opie was so adorable when he was little.

With all the violence and ugliness on TV these days, Mayberry is a safe place to hide!

Remember the Fun Girls? "Hi Doll!" "Shut up Bernie just shut up!". They have had so many wonderful stories.

I wanted an Aunt Bea for myself. She always seemed so nice.

I liked them all. Those were the good ole days when it was fun to sit down and watch TV. I also liked the Walton's-nice family TV show

I like all the episodes.......the one i like best is the one where barney and floyed are held hostage in a cabin by 3 female escape prisoners floyed goes to town with one of them meets up with andy, and at the end where they are trying to capture the last female barney wants to dance and he tells her "you are starting to get to me" and showed a close up of him trying to look sexy.

when it first started, Andy had a strong accent and acted quite silly. He toned it down later on. actually a bit too much. he had a temper all the time and the school teacher he later married had a temper too. I always wondered why he did that.
