- I apologize for the sound, I got a new mic and audio system and it didn't record it well!
Every time Don Knotts tried to shoot this scene, he said he couldn't do it because he'd break up every time Floyd the barber said this line!

I just discovered all these great comments were being held! Love reading them, I changed the settings.
so do I, I love classic TV shows like this! It is a great show 😊
I worked with Don Knotts in a show and he was so funny all the time! You had to love that about him! Now his daughter Karen Knotts doing Stand Up and is very funny just like him!!!!!
@@janiceladik271 I have a comedian friend who has also worked with her and he's had nothing but nice things to say about her.
I laugh just as hard as I ever did, or more, every time I see it. Just today it was Barney giving Otis the Ink Blot Test, and Lydia…blind date with Andy and first date with Goober…laugh therapy!!!
@Angie Brooke It makes me laugh just thinking about it… Thank you!
Without a doubt one of the greatest comedies of all time. I'm 73 and I remember watching it when I was absent from school and I'm still watching it today. The writers were geniuses.
Man I'm not even 14 and I can relate to people from two generations ago cause I remember this awesome show.
Me too I’m 73
I'm 79 and fell in love with this show during the last 15 years, more so than the original airing.
I'm 51 and know this movie verbatim.
Im watching the whole series on pluto tv and I love it! Currently my favorite show I'm watching 😂
I am 66. Still watch this show each day. Thanks for the video!
Barney singing in the choir and trying to see who was off key....totally cracks me up each time I watch it.
A Cappella, A Cappella
@@curtismoon5316 LOL 😂 Barney was a character!
Loved that one, of course all of them. Lol
I just loose it on the one where Barney is off key so Andy tells him his got a special microphone he has to whisper sing in as quiet as he can because it's so powerful.
Then when it's Barney's solo the old guy behind the curtain sings with a beautiful deep baritone voice. Barney s face when he thinks it's himself singing🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I binge watched The Andy Griffith show on Paramount Plus, I'm 66 and I used to watch it when I was a kid.
It is 2022 and I still watch this show.
We all do Patricia !
Me too..
Me too!
Heck yeah!
Me too ya'll !
This show blows away anything on TV now days! We West Virginians are so proud Don Knots was from our State, I called on a family owned store years ago near zMorgantown where Don would occasionally stop when he was in town, the owner told me Don was Don, shy bashful and was a little embarrassed by his success, but he never forgot where he was from and that he was always a country boy.
Once when l visited my grandmother in Goldsboro, North Carolina, she so calmly mentioned that she remembered when Andy was a school teacher in Goldsboro. She said it so by-the-wayish that l could hardly believe her. Turns out she was right. I was wondering why she never mentioned it before.
Knotts.😊
I guess I must be living in the past...I still watch all these great shows...💗
I've probably seen some episodes 10 times but still watch them anyway
Me too
I have comcast and I said Don Knots into the remote. He used to have his own comedy sketch show I think it was the 50s or 60s.
Me as well
You're not the only one. The creators of *TAGS* intended to keep the show out of the Civil Rights, JFK and Robert assassination, and Viet Nam spotlights. It was a great way of escapism.
After Don Knotts passed away, Ron Howard said that when Don was off-camera he was still so funny that he cracked up the actors in the scene being filmed, causing many retakes.
When Don Knotts left the show I didn’t like it anymore
I love watching Andy Griffith. I always will. I’m in my 40’s and have been watching since in my 20’s. I can watch the same episodes over and over again.
Me too! Just watched Barney trying to remember the Gettysburg address yesterday. Hilarius!
@@TonyBoyOhBoy One of THE best performances from Don Knotts. ♥️
Don Knotts could crack me up since childhood. I miss that dude.
Much more than just a comedy. A lesson to be learned in each episode. A lifestyle that I'm sure many people would have loved to have had as a child, especially me !
They have a Bible devotional for the Andy Griffith Show and it’s many great lessons. I have it!
I'm sixty-eight years old I've been watching Andy Griffith since I was 10 years old
Andy Griffith is one of my absolute Favorites, in my "library" my ALL time favorites!
It’s never gets old. The way Andy fathers Opie is great.
You can thank Ron Howard's dad for having the show go in the direction where a son respects his father rather than the typical smart ass kid of most sitcoms of that day.
I started watching this series for the first time in March of 2020 while we were all first stuck at home...I have haven't missed one day since! This is now my everyday feel good tv show - and I still cant get enough!! ♥ NIP IT!!!
I have to thank you. This video prompted me to buy series one of The Andy Griffith Show, which I started watching yesterday. Such a funny, heart-warming, comforting show. I am 61 and from the UK.
Thank you!
That is awesome! Yes, I think it might be the best comedy to ever air, they seemed to get everything perfect.
If only we all could leave a legacy of joy and laughter behind like the wonderful people who wrote and starred in this show. I hope generations more will enjoy it as we do!
@ramp. 🌳🌳☕🌄🌽🍉🍀🥜
I started googling character actors and found most had a fantastic background in film and theatre! Then I noticed how you can almost guess who the writers of an episode were and also the director. Richard Crenna directed 4 and Bob Sweeney, that funny, quirky character who had several roles on The Rifleman, would usually be the director of the funniest episodes of the Andy Griffith Show, like pretty much all the ones about Otis! Love you, Otis!❣️
@@diananutt1517 Excellent observation! All were true pros!
I loved the Andy Griffith show. I watch it every day
Around here, it's on 3 different stations. I could watch it 24 hours if I so desired. And I have some DVDs too.
I watch it everyday too, and a few months ago when Amazon Prime stopped offering it - I bought all the episodes (seasons 1-5) so i could make sure and get my daily dose!
It's a show that anybody can watch at any point in life and enjoy
This show was, without a doubt, one of the greatest examples of what "middle America" small town Americana is/was all about. The cast of this show was superb, and Andy and Barney gave us all comedy classics to enjoy forever. Thanks for sharing this with us. new sub.
Just love this show..now on our late 60s..we watch them over an over!!...don't get this kind of entertainment anymore..classy..funny..just about real life.....love Barney..no one else could've played "Barney"......
Born in 1961.
I Never had time to watch.
However now that I'm 60 years old, I am first watching these episodes and enjoying them immensely if only it was reality.
I have always thought how unique it is to see Andy laugh at moments that are funny instead of hiding that laughter just because of being an actor. To me, it makes me laugh even more.
The only reason I'm still here after many struggles is this show.
thanks for sharing, Andy Griffith is one of my favorite shows, we went to Mount Airy NC to see the museum etc
Don is a classic comedian and a great actor. I got a reply fro his daughter a few months ago. He totally enjoyed his career.
Love Andy Griffith greatest show had a real way of making you feel at home. An feeling of nostalgia like no other. One Love
I just seen that episode yesterday ! You could tell Andy Griffith really was laughing hard ! I wish they had saved the outtakes from that wonderful show.. grew up watching it.
I just watched this episode on Pluto.
They play Andy Griffith episodes all day. Love it!
I still watch this. Reminds me of simpler times in this current crazy world
This is great! I wrote and executive produced "Andy Griffith's Silver Anniversary Special" when I was running on-air promotion for all of Turner Broadcasting!
Very cool! Thanks for sharing that!
I grew up with this show and it is hands down my all time favorite TV show ❤️
There will never be another Don Knotts. RIP
Read somewhere that in the beginning Andy was supposed to be the funny one and Barney the straight man. Glad it didn't turn out that way. Nothing against Andy but that part was perfect for Don Knotts.
I watched as a teen and my wife and I watch reruns today. It was a great, wholesome show with terrific writers and directors. It's difficult for me to choose one episode over another; I enjoyed them all.
I believe Andy is definitely trying not to laugh but it just happens to also fit the scene.
I wish we could see the bloopers from this show
Lord I loved this show. I have watched each episodes so much over the years that I can usually tell what episode it is in the first thirty seconds or less.
I still love to watch it here in 2022! If I'm still alive in 2050 I'll probably still be watching it. Don Knotts made that show!
My favorite show of all time. Love this episode.
Nip it ❤
Some of the best TV ever!
THIS is how you start your DAY!!!!💜💜💜💜
Very nice, thanks. Subscribed. I've seen every AG episode dozens of times at least. Thanks for the story.
Awesome, thank you!
Loved him on Andy show.
Our family like SO many others grew up watching this gem of a show. My middle sister had her '80's born children TRAINED to not call on her or need her when she would watch the afternoon reruns of AGS in the late '90's here locally. She'd just say "it's Andy Griffith time", and they knew what that meant. A little simpler time "mental vacation", if only for 30 or 60 minutes.
Good description! It is a mental vacation when you watch the show, I'd never heard that before.
I’ll always love The Andy Griffith show, and Barney! ❤️
Barney made that show.
@@HMMELD I totally agree!!!
Floyd was amazing!! I know they treasured him. One in a million and my favorite character. 💗🌿
From what I heard, he wasn't acting - he really was like that.
I bought a Floyd t-shirt off Etsy last year, its just a black shirt with a picture of Floyd in pink ink - I call it my Pink Floyd shirt! 😂
@@rendot2 🌿😀
Oh, Renee! That's so funny! Bet you'll get a lot of comments this summer when you wear it! Haha!
I never thought to check for tees!
Thanks!
@@rendot2 🌿🐿
Looked up those tees on Etsy, Renee, and I love the picture they used! Floyd was handsome and dignified but always only one second away from going off the rails, sending us into a laughing fit!!
Just a minute ago, an episode started with Goober and Floyd and Andy listing reasons why they'd back Howard for city council. I fell deeper in love with Floyd when he piped up and said, "Yeah...and he loves dogs!!" 💗🐕🌲🌲🌲
Love that man!!
@@diananutt1517 I love that episode too! 😂 I believe that photo they used for the shirt is when he was in a lonely hearts club and was pen-pals with a “rich widow” and he sent her a photo of him with his hair dyed dark. 😂 😂 I loved it when he kept looking in the mirror and was like “ “Floyd Lawson, you’re nothing but a lying, deceitful wretch” 😂 😂 He’s such a character!
That scene has always made me crack up. Floyd is hilarious.
🍀😛 @legalizitt
I'm thinkin of the time Barney and Floyd were taken prisoner in a cabin by the 3 lady prison escapees! Floyd was hanging out, eating a banana, waiting for his medium rare hamburger. He came running to say he wouldn't be responsible if they burned to a crisp!! Love that man. 🌳😊🌳
I had never seen the largest lady ever play anything but the head of the board of education or a similar role!
@@diananutt1517 She played Barney’s voice teacher in the episode where they heard Gomer singing as he was changing a tire outside the church window! He was to replace Barney etc.. Her character name was Eleanora Poultice
th-cam.com/video/WmFPMPOJUNs/w-d-xo.html
That was funny. 🤣 Opie's three wishes is my fave Andy Griffith show episode.
I think my favorite was “ mountain wedding”, with the darling family, and Esrnest T Bass…
Really, any of the episodes with them in it…
I remember the episode well as I am a continual fan of the Andy Griffith show, and have seen it more than a few times. It was a new show on tv when I was a young child. Kudos for the nice bit of tv trivia. The next time I see that episode it will bring me even more enjoyment and laughter. 👍
Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, it was (and is) a great show!
I love Don knotts! Thank you for so many laughs!
OMG I would never think of that scene as the one they had to do 20 takes of! The "All God's chillun got a uvula!" scene when Barney was tone deaf but wanted in the choir so bad? That is one of my favorites, plus the one where Aunt Bea and her whole ladies group got tipsy but didn't realize it.
I wouldn't think that either. I guess you can never tell. I like the one about the cow thief - Barney was good in that.
A dose of reality for everyone.The magazine revealed Knotts was born in West Virginia to a mother who was 40 at the time and a father who suffered from both schizophrenia and alcoholism. Growing up, his father would reportedly hold a knife to Knotts' neck and threaten him. “My dad was very burdened down by all these problems.
THAT scene is one of my all-time favorites! Look at the priceless subtleties in Floyd’s reaction when Barney is in his face.😂
I can watch one episode of Andy Griffith and it takes me back to the den of my childhood home , before the responsibilities and hardships of life had come…
"I did not know that." That was one of Johnny Carson's favorite quips. 😄
After seeing this, even I couldn’t stop laughing! Both actors interaction was done superbly.😂
I love watching this show I watch it all the time every day
If it was a natural reaction by Andy Griffith, it sure fit into the scene perfectly for Andy Taylor being amused at Barney's comic seriousness.
Love that show . Thanks 😁👍⭐️!!!!!
All time great show and character, Barney Fife. This was a classic scene among many. Thanks for the background on it. I did not know that!
Some trivia: The Andy Griffith show has roots in No Time for Sergeants, a short comic novel about a good ole' country boy drafted into the army. It was made into live teleplay, then a successful Broadway play, and then a movie. (1958). Griffith originated the lead role and starred in all three. The TV show followed 2 years later, with Don Knotts in a very different sidekick role. If you liked the TV show you will love the movie
The TV show introduced a number of fine actors to a wider audience, and did the same for folksy country music. The excellent bluegrass band, the Dillards, appeared several times.
The town of Mayberry is based on Mt. Airy, N.C. where Andy was born (as were my grandfather and his five brothers). The town celebrates the connection with an annual Mayberry days.
The man in the middle was trying not to laugh.
Impressed by high school student David's (Tobey Maguire) devotion to a 1950s family TV show, a mysterious television repairman (Don Knotts) provides him with a means to escape into the black-and-white program with his sister, Jennifer (Reese Witherspoon). While David initially takes to the simplistic, corny world of the show, Jennifer sets about jolting the characters with doses of reality that unexpectedly bring a little color into their drab existence.
If you have not watched it already check out Pleasantville if you're Don Knotts fan.
The guy in the middle looks like he's about to laugh too .
I love the early shows where Opie is young and his childish logic always gets the better of Andy .
Great show , still watch it till this day 😄 👮💇 💙 !
One of the best Shows Ever !! I'm 71 and still my Love it !! I hate it when People try to dig up Dirty Laundry on these Great Actors after life, let's remember them for all the great times they made us Laugh !!
I noticed that Andy would be laughing a lot in his scenes with Barney.😂😂😂
i love you tony boy...your true devotion is astounding
your inordinately OCD based attention to this extremely minor
event in all the hours that this show comprised
is to say the most "admirable"
i respect you sir.
Notice the guy in the middle looks like he's barely holding it together.. One of my favorite episodes and scenes. There are so many. I'm actually watching Andy right now and have it on pause so I could type this. Thanks for the video!
One of the funniest and greatest performers ever
Honestly every time I see Barney making those long speeches, Andy is almost always trying not to laugh.
He's the character that the whole story pivots on.
I am 52 still watching Andy Griffith my favorite show
Greatest show on tv!!
Love this show
I've watched it and have always thought something was up about Andy and his expression
Weather you believe me...or not. Before I started to view this ,I said to myself...."Floyd yelling..NIP IT !!!!!!!!. funniest scene EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
🤣
Loved this man
The funniest actor ever, series tv, films, variety shows, comedy specials, pure genius.
In one episode someone is talking about his constant struggle to control his weight since he gains weight and then has to lose it. Barney says something like: "Yea, I have the same problem with my weight - - 146, 146 and a quarter - - I'm all over the place." Still makes me smile.
Maybe the best TV character ever.
I'd never heard that, I'll be watching for it!
Thanks for sharing this with us
The fly on the wall , died of laughter 😂.
There is no way I could be an actor alongside Don Knotts. I would never be able to keep a straight face. This video clip in this attached link makes tears roll down my face and makes it hard for me to breathe. I've seen it dozens of times and it always makes me cry with laughter. Don't watch this link if you have a heart condition....Barney Fife The Preamble To The Constitution - TH-cam
th-cam.com/video/yx5d3haRG7M/w-d-xo.html
Sorry, here it is.... th-cam.com/video/yx5d3haRG7M/w-d-xo.html
The preamble! Lol..too funny how Barney needed help for every word and said he got it.
@@andrealatham1284 Was this your first time seeing it? To me there is nothing funnier than good, clean humor. Actors say humor is difficult unless you use profanity and insults....Don Knotts doesn't need those crutches. He is just flat-out hilarious. I'm glad you liked this, Andrea.
Paul, no. I must have watched it 50x! Grew up watching Andy G and started watching again recently. (1960-68)
When Barney was doing his "Nip it" or "Old iron door" routines, Andy would be both Andy G. and Andy T. His smile was both the character and the performer. He was virtually looking through the 4th wall to us as we smiled too.
Memories of my youth, adulthood, and now my retirement age...
Mayberry is in my blood...
the guy next to Floyd is also starting to grin...
I always love it when the actor causes the cast to crack up -
Tim Conway was a master at doing that on the Carol Burnett show - like the elephant gag
Looks like everyone in the scene was cracking up!
I watch it everyday. I just 💕💕 love this show, it is what life should ALWAY'S be now!!!!!!!!! I even record it, so I don't miss it !!!!! It is so wholesome, and 🤣🤣🤣 FUNNY. I wish this whole 🌍🌍🌍 WORLD would watch it, to see what should be...🥀🥀🥀🥀... 2022......
My step-mother was born a Hanlin and was born in Maplewood,W.Virginia near Morgantown, W.Virginia. She was born 1924 and passed away in 2004. I was doing some ancestry/family research and was surprised that my step-mother was actually a second cousin of Don Knotts through her father's brother. (Dont ask me the name, I literally got myself lost in tracing the names) What I do remember is that some of the Hanlin family are buried with the Knotts family.
I know my step-mother never knew this because if she did she would have said something about it. To me this was a fantasic find and wished I had met Don.
Cool story, thanks for sharing!
Cool indeed! My father's family was from southern West Virginia, nowhere near Morgantown, so I don't expect there is any family connection.
The best running gag on the episode is Aunt Bee's pickles smelled like kerosene.
Such a great cast!
I love this show! XO
We watch this show every evening. Grandkids Love Opie
Saw interview with Andy where he said it was his "priviledge" to watch Don Knotts turn into Barney Fife before scene together...❤
If you like this, watch Dr Strangelove, near the end as the um, consultant has his heil speech, watch the ambassadors' face and all thru the angle cuts the extras, it was all they could do to get through it. Or Young Frankenstien, the what knockers scene, GW was in tears at Eyegor. Find the episode with Barbara Eden, she owned them all, one of the best of the best episodes of the sixties.
The dental scene in Shakiest Gun is an historical classic of humour - imo. Thanks, Don.
Andy & Don were in the Broadway play, and then, the movie, No Time For Sargeants, before The Andy Griffith Show. Don almost didn't get the role. He auditioned & left the office. The secretary thought he was great & was discussing it with the director(or who ever decides) & he was swayed to hire him. They wanted Don to come back but missed him. So the secretary leaned out the window & yelled down just as Don took one step down to get on the subway. He heard her yell his name! He came back for another reading/audition & got the part! I read that in the book, God Winks. It's about coincidences or, God Winks, as the book calls them. Excellent read, btw, written by Squire D. Rushnell, who wrote School House Rocks, we all watched as kids. If you want to be surprised in every chapter, you must read this book!
I remember this episode, it's hilarious 😂.
I've visited his grave at Pierce Bros. in Westwood a couple of times. He was a great comedian.
I love all the shows....
