Me too! I love that show. l was born in the sixties so l watched it in reruns. I prefer the first five years when Barney Fife (Don Knots) was a regular
Great Video sir, I am 61 years old and can remember sitting with my precious grand parents watching the show. I to this day watch at least one episode every morning, as in the way of life now its so refreshing, and Rewarding to see!
This was a great trip, Steve! Who doesn't love the Andy Griffith Show? My wife and I were in Manteo/Roanoke Island a couple of months ago, and made it up to the gate where Andy is buried. It would be nice if they would open it up from time to time so we could pay our respects. I remember I was in Branson, MO when I learned of his passing.
I read a comment one time that said he was a very private man. It was from a neighbor that said they lived down from him for awhile & he wasn’t too pleasant about his fame like he didn’t like being approached or bothered much. I’m not sure if they’d ever let the public go. :( it would be amazing to see! Thank you for making this video.
I'm still a big fan of Andy Griffin and watch almost everyday day! Thanks for sharing this! And yes Andy Griffin is my favorite character on the show! always thought my youngest son look like Opie
It was nice to see Don Knott’s gravesite again, it’s probably the best grave I have ever seen of a celebrity. I always watched the Andy Griffith show growing up. Ron Howard is my age so I have followed him all these years. It was fun to see where they filmed the opening scene.
Man I love Howard Morris. He was a hoot. Especially when he serenaded Charlene Darling. He could have also had on his epitaph You ain't seen the last Of Ernest T. Bass. He said that often too. This was wonderful thanks again as usual. For fun my favorites were Ernest T, Barney, and Floyd. But the Taylor household was the foundation for the wackier characters. Some of the best shows were the one about the birds and Mr McBeevy
@@travisbickle5984 Yeah when Ernest T serenaded Charlene. And when Mr Darling courted Aunt Bea and screamed the dishes he wanted and she would be so startled she would break something. Hilarious
This was such a great show and it's amazing all the star power in the show. So many other things came from this show. Great little vlog on many of the characters and their final resting places. I do love it when I'm able to easily find graves like you have with this one.
LOL, it was like a miracle to find all of their graves super fast and easily. As you know, it's almost always the opposite. I guess they all wanted to be found :-)
@@TheGraveyardChannel Yes I think sometimes they speak to us in ways like that. It sounds weird to someone who doesn't do this or experience it but it's true.
Anita was a pretty lady. Too bad she died so young.. Have you ever been to Jamestown NY to visit the grave of Lucille Ball? It is an amazing experience, as is visiting the museum and other areas of interest relating Lucy and Desi.
Still to this day, I watch Andy and crew every chance I get. It is a timeless treasure that has so many life lessons. Also takes me back to much simple and peaceful times .
@@larrydicus7822 lf his father and Don were 3rd cousins, then the son would be a 4th cousin. I heard that after 5th cousin it doesn't count. That's why l asked.
Clarence Hodges Yea I understand that. I was more saying that anything past being a 2nd cousin isn’t worth mentioning. I mean, it would be so cool either way to be even just a little bit related to Don.
Great vid! I watch the Andy show every evening at 8 pm a warm fuzzy to end the day,, got a new grandson now and want him to absorb these tv classics,, when America was warm and safe with morals🤟
Great idea. These shows really are like time capsules of a kinder and safer place, most of the time. We really were lucky to grow up back then. Thanks for sharing with us and congrats on your new grandson 😊👍
It's hard to believe that nearly the whole cast of the Andy Griffith show is gone! It's sad, because life is passing so fast for me and everyone. The Andy Griffith show was great!!, it's still on today, we watch it every day. But I wish it had of been filmed in NC. , just like one of my favorite shows The Waltons, the original family " The Hamners "from Virginia, was filmed in California. I live in Virginia and have visited their home several times, I was disappointed to find out the series was filmed in California..But I understand it would have costly to film it here. Anyway, thanks for sharing another great tour. I hope your mom and you are well.😊🌴🌻🌷🌺
It’s always so exciting for me when I get to go to the location that one of my favorite shows or movies was taped. When I got to see the piece of land that the minnow of the Gilligans island lies on its side with a hole in it it was just such an experience!💐 we could hear you perfectly on this video, Steve. Also we’ve added a new member to our family. We got an adorable puppy named Juno this week. So far our four-year-old dog, Ruby is very happy. I think she missed her big sister, Daisy so much the last month.🐕🦺
Wow, They still show the re-runs EVERYDAY in Chicago, it makes me sad...they are All Gone, accept for Ron Howard and two others, but they left us many funny shows to remember them all , I LOVE Your Videos , Keep up the Great Work !
@@randiwurzberg9323 yes she is. She still goes to downtown Mt Airy (aka mayberry) every 3rd Friday of the month to sign autographs. I went into walkers restaurant and spoke a guy that works there and he said she hasn't been out because of the virus going around.
I still love the Andy Griffith show. I still watch it. To be honest all those characters are unique. They all support each other. How could you favour Andy without Barney who made him stand out. It is hard to favour just one from the show. Who made this Andy Griffith show was an excellent person who combined the characters so meshes together that one cannot do without the other. So it is all about the Andy Griffith show in a "nut shell". Even the person who whistled the song. For me the name of that tune is "the Andy Griffith show". I like the twist of the show too with the Hillybillies and their ways of life. I always enjoy this show.
Thank you so much for sharing this video! The Andy Griffith Show is near and dear to my heart. I remember watching it as a kid and I never missed an episode. Wish I can go back to simpler times in Mayberry. Opie is my favorite character. In fact I have a ginger cat named Opie. Hope your mom is recovering from her fall. Take care of yourself.
I love The Andy Griffith show! It is awesome that we can get all of these shows today! I also loved Andy Griffith as Matlock! He is such a great actor and seems like such an awesome person toknow in person!
Steve, thank you so much for documenting the actors of one of the greatest shows in television history. I, like many remember the reruns more than the original series run from 1960-69. It has never lost any of its timeless Americana innocence over the years, however and still attracts millions of viewers around the world today.The assembly of actors that made this show so memorable is truly unique in television history. Several famous actors such as Jack Nicholson, Jerry Van Dyke, Barbara Eden, and Bill Bixby also made cameo appearances on the show early in their careers. Thank you for sharing these wonderful memories and final resting places with everyone. God speed and safe travels!
Steve: Thank you very much for uploading this of The Andy Griffith Show and allowing us to see this while we are confined to staying at home during this quarentine.
Just found your videos. I love visiting cemeteries. Lived in LA for 2 months in 2006. My biggest regret was that we never visited the cemeteries. SO HAPPY TO FIND YOUR VIDEOS ! I love all the old shows. Thanks so much for making these. ❤
Best show ever made, love watching over and over again. Sad that it left Netflix, must have watched each episode over 100 times. Barny Fife was of course my favorite character. Keep up the great work, love watching.
Thank you! ...the noises in the back ground didn't take away from your presentation, which i was glad to see. I watch the Andy Griffith show usually twice A-day but every day, at least once a day, I'm not happy unless I get to see a show
Goodmorning Steve!! Hope you have a great day today sir!! Thank you for your FANTASTIC VIDEOS :) !!!! P.S. How is your mother doing? Hope all is well with you and your family and friends as well !!
Here’s a nice little tid-bit for fans of THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW. Did you know that Earl Hagen was under a lot of pressure to write the theme because there was so little time before production was scheduled to begin. When it was done, everyone liked it, but wanted to hear the lyrics. That was the first Hagen had heard that he was supposed to write music AND lyrics, and with so little time remaining before production , he abandoned any attempt to come up with lyrics and decided to just whistle. Hagen recorded the whistling himself because there was no time to search for talent. He never thought the producers would accept his work, but by that point, he didn’t care, he was frustrated by there demand for lyrics. As we know, they loved it, and the rest is Hollywood history. I’m hoping this is true. It was told to me by Burt Mustin who often acted on the show and you might remember as Gus the fireman on LEAVE IT TO BEAVER.
OMG, that is such an awesome tidbit of fun trivia, Henry. I visited Burt Mustin’s gravesite last week but decided to wait and include him in my upcoming leave it to beaver Vlog. If I do a part two of this Andy Griffith vlog I will definitely include him in it as well. How cool that you knew him. Thanks for sharing this with us Henry 😊👍
Hi Steve, A little voice was telling me to Google actress Aneta Corsaut (Helen Crump) only to learn that she was born in my own birth state of Kansas. In looking over Aneta's Wikipedia page and according to the book, "Andy & Don: The Making of a Friendship and a Classic American TV Show" it mentions that she and Andy Griffith had an affair while working on the show plus Griffith was married at the time. Aneta never married.
CarolinaGirl I think Andy Griffin and Ms. Corsaut had great chemistry on the show and I think they were a good match for each other. Andy’s last wife was a piece of work. She buried him 5 hours after he died and had the home he shared with a previous wife demolished. Ms. Corsaut also played a role on Bonanza as a love interest for the character of Adam Cartwright played by Pernell Roberts. Of all of his character’s love interest she was my favorite. She was a beautiful lady of grace.
When Floyd the Barber had his stroke he was still on the Andy Griffin show.They wrote him out of the Andy Griffith Show until he was able to come back, So after Floyd had his stroke he came back to the Andy Griffin show, just a few more episodes then he wasn't able to do it anymore. I always did love Floyd the Barber he was cool as hell him and Otis also Ernest T
Thanks Steve. Your attention to detail filming makes a really nice video. Loved your tour of the columbariums. Neat info about the cast of the Andy Griffith Show
I visited there in February of 2019, I also live in N.C. Swansboro, this was a place that I had always wanted to visit, another trip is planned for this September or October.
@@TheGraveyardChannel I would say go soon, coz Betty Lynn still there about to turn 94 but you'll probably not going to see her anyway due to the coronavirus. I hope and pray this stuff goes away b4 Betty. I've met her twice, once back in 2006 and got my picture with her, she is as sweet as they come!!! I do believe September is when they have autumn festival it would be the best time to visit.
Jesse Donald Knotts (Don Knotts) was a great kind person. He was a Dodge spoke person. I met him at a Dodge convention. I absolutely love the Don Knotts movies, I still watch his movies every day and the Andy Griffith Shows. Thanks for the reminisce.
Angela N I am not sure. Andy wanted it to be a museum. They have been married for at least 20 years so I would have expected her to respect his wishes. There might be more that went on. For economic reasons?
My all time favorite character was "Floyd the barber". Don Knotts once said of him that he was the same on and off the set--a natural. It was the "Helen" character l hated. She was a stick of dynamite.
Agree on both. Floyd is one of those rare character actors that can make a show but is overshadowed by other legendary characters/actors. Totally agree about Helen, it was though poor Andy had to walk on eggshells around her volatile character.
Good afternoon Steve another awesome video today I enjoyed it very much Gomer pyle Was one of my favorites on The Andy Griffith show Have a great weekend
Thanks Steve. Great tour. Andy Griffith one of my fav shows.👍😀 I watch reruns daily. Makes a great day in these pandemic times.☕️🍪🍩 Like your mask.👍take care.stay safe. Hope your mom is okay. 👋😊👍😷😷🙏
I still watch the show everyday. Somehow it brings good feelings.
Yes I definitely agree it bring good feelings to me as well. Take you back to the good old days I also watch it everyday.
I watch it everyday as well! Love that show!! ❤❤❤

My mom watches Andy Griffith show everyday. Wonderful show. One of the best shows that still showing on t.v. how is your mom? I pray for her everyday.
Thanks for sharing with us Jennifer. Mom is hanging in there. Thanks for asking 😊👍
Me too! I love that show. l was born in the sixties so l watched it in reruns. I prefer the first five years when Barney Fife (Don Knots) was a regular
I watch Andy Griffith a lot. I have all the season's on DVD. And have a few autograph photos from the cast. It's still a great family show today.
It definitely is timeless. Thanks for sharing with us Kenneth 👍
Very relaxing to watch.
We have that in common. I watch it practically on a loop. How lucky that you have autographs
Barney said that he was going to arrest Ernest T. Bass and Andy said, "He'll kill ya'." I still laugh at that line.
@@CaliforniaFly Helen also made the same comment to Barney which made the line even more hilarious😀
Great Video sir, I am 61 years old and can remember sitting with my precious grand parents watching the show.
I to this day watch at least one episode every morning, as in the way of life now its so refreshing, and Rewarding to see!
I still watch the reruns of all these shows, those were the days when TV shows was the best. Thank you Steve I always love watching your vlogs.
Thanks Vicky 👍
Really cool to finally find out about the lake on the show.
We watch it all day every , Were watching it now, on TV land
👌🤴🤚
So hard to pick a favorite as each one was unique and yet it all blended together to make Mayberry a place you’d like to call home
I agree. Thanks Walter 😊👍
This was a great trip, Steve! Who doesn't love the Andy Griffith Show? My wife and I were in Manteo/Roanoke Island a couple of months ago, and made it up to the gate where Andy is buried. It would be nice if they would open it up from time to time so we could pay our respects. I remember I was in Branson, MO when I learned of his passing.
I hope to get back there one day too. And I agree with you. It would probably be as popular as Elvis’ is Graceland. Fingers crossed one day 🤞
I read a comment one time that said he was a very private man. It was from a neighbor that said they lived down from him for awhile & he wasn’t too pleasant about his fame like he didn’t like being approached or bothered much. I’m not sure if they’d ever let the public go. :( it would be amazing to see! Thank you for making this video.
I was sad when they ended the show. Andy, Gomer and Barney were my favorites on the show. Loved that show
Wonderful about the opening scene location !! And all the good information, I SI love The Andy Griffith Show 👍⭐️♥️
I'm still a big fan of Andy Griffin and watch almost everyday day! Thanks for sharing this! And yes Andy Griffin is my favorite character on the show! always thought my youngest son look like Opie
* Griffith *
I liked Andy and Barney's banter and comedic delivery in scenes. I still watch the show every day.
Great video Steve--thank you!!
Thanks Staci 👍
Wow, so many of them died from heart ailments. They are missed!
It was nice to see Don Knott’s gravesite again, it’s probably the best grave I have ever seen of a celebrity. I always watched the Andy Griffith show growing up. Ron Howard is my age so I have followed him all these years. It was fun to see where they filmed the opening scene.
I agree with everything you said Sue 😊👍
Don Knott's gravesite is nice. Check out the gravesite of Issac Hayes it's also a work of art.
Man I love Howard Morris. He was a hoot. Especially when he serenaded Charlene Darling. He could have also had on his epitaph
You ain't seen the last
Of Ernest T. Bass. He said that often too. This was wonderful thanks again as usual. For fun my favorites were Ernest T, Barney, and Floyd.
But the Taylor household was the foundation for the wackier characters. Some of the best shows were the one about the birds and Mr McBeevy
LOL that would’ve even been a better epitaph 😊 thanks Sue 👍
Ernest's character was based on Ernest T. Bass.
@@southernlainey9270 Who was the real guy. That's so cool
Loved the show growing up, and still do. Earnest T. Bass always made me laugh and so Did the Darlings! Remember the Darlings?
@@travisbickle5984 Yeah when Ernest T serenaded Charlene. And when Mr Darling courted Aunt Bea and screamed the dishes he wanted and she would be so startled she would break something. Hilarious
Great story. I loved that show. We were allowed to stay up to watch it every Sunday night!!! Thanx Steve!!
Good seeing that your back
One of the best shows ever (Andy Griffith Show.) Thanks for the tour.
Thanks for watching WS 👍

Yes I can hear you thru your mask. Thank you for your wonderful tour. Andy am Barney will always be my favorites.
My mother-in-law had a bird that whistled the Andy Griffith theme song.
LOL That’s awesome 😊👍
Oh how sweet, smart bird!!🌷🐥😊
My sister had a dog that would howl the house down when the whistling started when the theme song played .
i once had a grey parrot that could sing "sympathy for the devil". his name was keef.
Okay...THAT would have been an awesome bird!!!
Love the show still today. Watch it daily
Memory Lane Trips With Steve, the black and white seasons were classics.
Still to this day, I watch Andy and crew every chance I get. It is a timeless treasure that has so many life lessons. Also takes me back to much simple and peaceful times .
My dad and Don knots are cousins. He is very missed. I also love his headstone as well.
How cool 👍
Does that mean that you and Don Knotts are cousins also?
Clarence Hodges
If his dad and Don are first cousins, then he and Don are second cousins.

Thanks for sharing the final resting places of these wonderful actors . Have a blessed day.😇
Thanks Donna and You too 😊👍
Gomer Pyle is my favorite character on andy Griffith show and barney fife is my favorite character on Andy Griffith show
I love Gomer Pyle .... especially when George Lindsey appeared ( GOOBER ) , driviving Sgt. Carter out of his mind ... SO HYSTERICAL .

My favorite TV show of all time. Barney is my favorite. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing with us Nadine 😊👍
I remember watching this show on ABC when I was younger and when it was still on there.
Thanks for vid ! good memories from the 60's TV ... RIP all actors ... you made our day a better one !

Hi I'm watching the Andy Griffith show while watching your video game time
LOL 😊👍
Thank you for this❤❤❤I own the series on dvd and watch it over and over and over. Love the show and the wonderful actors
I always liked the Fun Girls from Mount Pilot, who would drop in to visit Andy and "Bernie". As a teen, I always hoped to run into them in real life.
😊👍
If they wasn't speeding in town just to hook up with Andy and barney
Hey Doll. Epic.
Steve:
Thank you very much for uploading this of The Andy Griffith Show and allowing us to see this while we are confined to staying at home during this quarentine.
I remember when Andy Griffith passed away I was living in NC and it was a mess when he was buried
Where is he buried? It happened so quickly I was never sure.
To this day I still watch Andy Griffith. Favorite character was Barney, Don Knotts, LOVE him n show. Thanz for sharing . Stay safe❤❤🤗
Still one of the best tv shows, ever. Well written, well produced (Sheldon Leonard), and great cast. That is about as good as it gets.
I agree 😊👍
Hi Steve what a beautiful looking place good to see you looking well hope your mum and family are keeping well to stay safe out there Steve
Thanks Wendy, mom is hanging in there 😊👍
@@TheGraveyardChannel that's good Steve I wish her and you all the best of health
“Deputy” Barney Fife. Andy was sheriff.
Just found your videos. I love visiting cemeteries. Lived in LA for 2 months in 2006. My biggest regret was that we never visited the cemeteries. SO HAPPY TO FIND YOUR VIDEOS ! I love all the old shows. Thanks so much for making these. ❤
I think Otis Campbell is my favorite. Especially when Barney used to try to mess with them.
Great trip Steve! To bad there aren’t shows like Andy Griffith on TV now. I can watch them over and over. Safe travels!
I know, but at least we can watch it on me TV forever. Thanks Julie 😊👍
Aunt Bee was my favorite..!..such a classic show from a bygone era of TV..👍👍
Best show ever made, love watching over and over again. Sad that it left Netflix, must have watched each episode over 100 times. Barny Fife was of course my favorite character.
Keep up the great work, love watching.
Now I’ve heard everything. *A mask in a graveyard?* Oh well. Remember Leonard Blush, “the voice of Mt. Pilot.”
LOL I know, pretty weird. But then these are very weird times 😊👍
Need a mask for " grave robbing"
Welcome to California.
California is the worst
I’m a 16 year old guy and the Andy Griffith Show is my favorite thing to watch
It would have to be Barney. Without him, the show wasn't the same.
ABSOLUTELY .......😊😊😊😁😁😁
knotts should have talked to andy before leaving

She was actually born in my town, Hutchinson, KS. Most people here do not know this!
@CarolinaGirl Omg that's terribly sad.

Love your videos Steve. You have a very kind and peaceful voice for these videos. These videos are not sad. They are a celebration of there lives.
Thanks Joshua. That’s how I feel too 😊👍
When Floyd the Barber had his stroke he was still on the Andy Griffin show.They wrote him out of the Andy Griffith Show until he was able to come back, So after Floyd had his stroke he came back to the Andy Griffin show, just a few more episodes then he wasn't able to do it anymore. I always did love Floyd the Barber he was cool as hell him and Otis also Ernest T
I agree. He was one of the best. Thanks Bob for sharing with us 😊👍
When he came back all of his scenes were shot with him sitting down.
I watch this delightful show every day to blot out the wretched evening news.....
One of the best! I didn't like it when Elanor (SP?) Donahue left, she was great!
Thanks Steve. Your attention to detail filming makes a really nice video. Loved your tour of the columbariums. Neat info about the cast of the Andy Griffith Show
Thanks Michele. I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed it 😊👍
I live in the real Mayberry. Mount Airy nc it’s Andy’s home town
That must be awesome! It’s definitely on my bucket list to visit someday soon. Thanks for sharing Bradley 😊👍
I visited there in February of 2019, I also live in N.C. Swansboro, this was a place that I had always wanted to visit, another trip is planned for this September or October.
I was there a few weeks ago. Definitely an interesting place.
@@TheGraveyardChannel I would say go soon, coz Betty Lynn still there about to turn 94 but you'll probably not going to see her anyway due to the coronavirus. I hope and pray this stuff goes away b4 Betty. I've met her twice, once back in 2006 and got my picture with her, she is as sweet as they come!!!
I do believe September is when they have autumn festival it would be the best time to visit.
Jesse Donald Knotts (Don Knotts) was a great kind person. He was a Dodge spoke person. I met him at a Dodge convention.
I absolutely love the Don Knotts movies, I still watch his movies every day and the Andy Griffith Shows. Thanks for the reminisce.
a true fan! thanks, doug!
The entire cast was special and very talented in their own way, but I would have to say Barney (Don Knotts).
Awesome show and I still watch it... Ty for the nice video!
It's so strange how Andy's widow demolish his home the day after his death. I find it mighty peculiar.
I never knew that.
Huh I didn't here about that ? Why did she do that for?
Angela N I am not sure. Andy wanted it to be a museum. They have been married for at least 20 years so I would have expected her to respect his wishes. There might be more that went on. For economic reasons?
@@theviking2877 it was reported they had a long going affair for years on the show. (Helen Krumpett)
We went to Mount Airy NC last October. I never get tired of the series. It was one of a kind.
It’s on my bucket list too. Thanks for sharing with us almost veg carpenter 😊👍
Having to wear a mask in a cemetery is the absolute height of absurdity.
I agree with Doris ,I watch it every evening and it does just make you have good feelings ,much better days back then .
My all time favorite character was "Floyd the barber". Don Knotts once said of him that he was the same on and off the set--a natural. It was the "Helen" character l hated. She was a stick of dynamite.
Agree on both. Floyd is one of those rare character actors that can make a show but is overshadowed by other legendary characters/actors. Totally agree about Helen, it was though poor Andy had to walk on eggshells around her volatile character.
@@richardjohnson8197 True
Agreed. Helen was terrible.
