While the law enforcement of Mayberry was a constant presence on the show, they rarely dealt with serious crimes in their small town. "Barney Gets His Man" finds the lovable goofball Barney Fife a hero when he accidentally captures a wanted criminal. Barney lets his newfound hero status go to his head until the wanted man escapes from custody. Barn...
Before his character was given his own spin-off series, Gomer Pyle quickly became a popular side character on The Andy Griffith Show. "Citizen's Arrest" sees Gomer perform a citizen's arrest on Barney when he commits the same traffic violation that he just ticketed Gomer for. The ensuing controversy leads to Barney resigning his position and demand...
Most of the funniest TV sitcom episodescome from a comical misunderstanding that leads to confusion and farcical hijinks. In "Three Wishes for Opie," Barney purchases a fortune-telling game which he soon comes to believe actually works. He allows Opie to use it and through a series of coincidences, it seems as if all of his dreams come true. The cl...
The beauty of The Andy Griffith Show was often how simple the conflicts were in relation to the many complicated issues of real life. "The Bank Job" finds Barney unhappy with the lax security at the Mayberry Bank. To prove his point he goes undercover to stage a holdup only to find that the bank is skeptical when real robbers show up. RELATED: The ...
Though usually very funny, The Andy Griffith Show also had its fair share of dramatic lessons learned through the characters. In "Opie the Birdman," Opie accidentally kills a mother bird with his slingshot and is tasked with raising her chicks. However, he is saddened to find that he must release them once they grow big enough. Before Ron Howard di...
The small-town environment of the show was usually a wholesome mirror to the world outside, but many episodes proved that not every Mayberry resident had the best intentions. In "Barney's First Car," Deputy Fife buys a used car from a little old lady who he trusts implicitly despite just meeting her. Inevitably, the car turns out to be a lemon and ...
Holiday episodes are usually a highlight of any TV series and The Andy Griffith Show delivered one of the best Christmas episodes in TV history. "Christmas Story" follows the crotchety Ben Weaver, who insists that Sam Muggins be arrested for moonshining on Christmas Eve. Andy arrests Sam and brings in his family as accessories in order to have the ...
Halloween comes to Mayberry and The Andy Griffith Show served up one of the best episodes about the spooky holiday. In "The Haunted House," Opie accidentally throws his baseball through the window of an abandoned house and is too afraid to retrieve it. Finally, Andy, Barney, and Gomer enter the abandoned domicile and find a host of spooky goings-on...
Many of the moral lessons from The Andy Griffith Show are still pertinent today, and the trait of honesty is usually shown to be the most important for the residents of Mayberry. In "The Pickle Story," no one will admit that Aunt Bee's pickles are bad and her increased confidence leads her to enter them into the state fair competition. While Andy i...
As is usually the case with the show, things go wrong any time that the residents of Mayberry encounter the outside world. In "Convicts-at-Large," Floyd and Barney run out of gas while returning from a fishing trip and stumble upon a cabin occupied by three escaped female convicts. Few characters could match the over-the-top qualities of Barney Fif...

9/10. The Life and Times of Sheriff Andy Taylor. THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW (CBS, 1960-1968) is not only Andy Griffith's first TV show, but his best. Griffith, who made his mark on Broadway, TV and screen adaptation of NO TIME FOR SERGEANTS, might have turned that into a weekly comedy series.
