Originating as a spinoff of MAKE ROOM FOR DADDY, THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW premiered in 1960 and quickly charmed its way into the hearts of audiences with one of the most beloved television fathers of all time. Set in the fictitious environs of Mayberry, North Carolina, the series chronicled daily life in the peaceful Southern hamlet through the gently humorous eyes of town sheriff Andy Taylor (Andy Griffith). A widower raising his young son Opie (a pre-HAPPY DAYS Ron Howard) with the help of his live-in spinster aunt Bee (Frances Bavier), Andy capably navigated single parenthood with the same goodhearted wisdom that he brought to his law enforcement duties--that is, when he wasn't being hampered by the fidgety, bug-eyed antics of his bungling deputy sheriff Barney Fife (Don Knotts). A wholesome throwback to a simpler time, this collection includes every episode of the series' debut season.

ONE OF THE VERY BEST TV SHOWS EVER
Movie Lover: JERRELL LEWIS from GARY, IN US -- July, 12, 2008
THE
FIRST
SEASON
IS
THE
BEST
OF
THE 8 - SEASON
SET.
THE
SHOW
IS
RICH
IN
GOOD-NATURED
HUMOR,
COLORFUL CHARACTERIZATION
AND
LOVABLE
SCENES THRU THE
FIRST
FIVE SEASONS.
SOME VERY GOOD EPISODES
INCLUDE:
ELLIE
SAVES
A
FEMALE IN SEASON 1/ THE MANHUNT/ ALCOHOL AND LACE/ A FEUD
IS
A
FEUD.
BRINGING
UP
OPIE
IN
SEASON
1
HAS
A
TOUCH
OF
SADNESS.
PRISONER OF LOVE IN SEASON 4 & OPIE'S
RIVAL
(ESPECIALLY THE CONCLUDING SCENE) IN SEASON 3
ARE AMONG
OTHER
EXTRA
GOOD
EPISODES
IN
THE
SERIES.
THE
MOST
SERIOUS EPISODE
IN THE ENTIRE
SERIES
MIGHT
BE
OPIE
THE
BIRDMAN
IN
SEASON 4,
AND
IS
A
MODEL
OF HOW
TO
PRESENT
AN
EPISODE
THAT
TEACHES
A
MORAL
AND
A
LESSON
WHICH
ADULTS
AND
CHILDREN
CAN
UNDERSTAND,
RELATE
TO
AND APPRECIATE.
THE CONCLUDING SCENES AND THE SCENE
MUSIC
IN
THIS
SHOW
ARE
EXCELLENT
AS
A
WHOLE.
THE
ONLY
EXCEPTIONS
ARE
WHERE
A
PIECE
OF
MUSIC
FITTED
PERFECTLY
TO
ONE
SHOW
IS
USED
GENERICALLY
IN
ANOTHER
LATER
ON.
AN
EXAMPLE
OF
THIS
IS
THE
APPEARANCE
OF
THE
THEME
MUSIC
FROM
ELLIE
SAVES
A
FEMALE
IN
A
TOTALLY
DIFFERENT
EPISODE
THAT
DOES
NOT
HAVE
EQUAL SENTIMENT,
NAMELY,
OPIE'S
ILL
GOTTEN
GAIN
IN
SEASON
4.
THIS ONLY
OCCURS
A
FEW
TIMES, THOUGH.
THE
8TH
SEASON
APPEARS
WITH
MAJOR
CHEMISTRY
MISSING
BETWEEN
THE
CHARACTERS,
AND
MORPHS
INTO
A
WIDELY
DIFFERENT
SHOW
ATMOSPHERE
AND
STYLE
IN
COMPARISON
TO
THE
FIRST
5 SEASONS.
THIS
SEASON IS
THE
ONLY
WEAK
POINT
OF
A
THOROUGHLY
ENTERTAINING
AND DOWNRIGHT LOVABLE
TV
SHOW.
BOTTOM
LINE
OF
IT
IS,
ANDY GRIFFITH
IS
ONE
OF
THE
VERY
BEST
TV
SHOWS
EVER.
EVERYBODY
SHOULD
AT
LEAST
SEE
A
TOP
20
EPISODE
REPRESENTATION
OF
THE
SHOW
TO
GET
A
VIEW
OF
HIGH
COMIC
TALENT (INCLUDING
GOOD
SCRIPT
WRITING)
COMBINED
WITH
UNFORETTABLE
TV
CHARACTERS
AND
BRILLIANT
MUSICAL
COLORATION
IN
ONE
ENJOYABLE
PACKAGE.
THE
ANDY
GRIFFITH
SHOW
PROVIDES
WHOLESOME
FAMILY
ENTERTAINMENT
WITH
IMPECCABLE
TASTE.
UNCONDITIONALLY
RECOMMENDED
FOR
EVERY
HOUSEHOLD
THAT
HAS
A
TV
SET
IN
IT.
