Andy Griffith Show Behind the Scenes

[@Just.D]

My Dad ( who looked just like Andy and walked like him- same mannerisms) always had this show on with reruns when he got older and we all loved the show. Since Dad died in 2020 at 90 yrs old I can not bring myself to watch it. I will one day soon, when I am ready for a good cry.

I always loved seeing Clint always wanting to share his sandwich with someone. He he reminds me of my younger brother when he was that age. ❤ Ron Howard’s directing abilities are so spot on. I’m glad he realized. that directing was the way to go for him!

[@MrNostalgiabuff]

Love this show! It was set in a much better time. Each episode leaves you with a good feeling. I'm so glad to see reruns 24/7 on Pluto!!

[@CortHowell]

Couldn't agree more!

[@bernardybarra4841]

Loved the clip! Thanks so much for sharing. Anyone that has seen the show will enjoy seeing the home movies about the Mayberry.

[@CortHowell]

Glad you enjoyed it!

I'm 62 and this takes me back to 68,69,70. Just the beginning starting out in grade school. So much to learn,so many obstacles to overcome. Father time kicks butt!

[@FrankensteinLover]

Still the Greatest Show Ever 64 Years Later. The Writing, The Acting,The Comedy, The Life Lessons you just cant top it. Anyone who says different can go up an alley and holler fish while Nipping it in the Bud. #LongLiveTheAndyGriffithShow

perfect

[@galeyhouse8557]

Absolutely one of the the best sitcoms ever made. EVER!!!I have watched it for 60 years and will continue to watch it until i stop breathing!!❤❤❤❤❤

[@CA-lk6fd]

Thank you for sharing this! I’m 47, and have been watching this show since I can remember. My grandparents watched it, and my dad and I watched it together. My mom wasn’t a fan.😁 Now, my son and I watch it almost daily. It’s such a magical thing about it, you can watch every episode so many times and it’s still so amazing. You can kick back after a long stressful day, and the cares just melt away as you take a trip to the small town of Mayberry.

[@CortHowell]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@willielarimer7170]

Been to Mount Airy and the Andy Griffith museum. Saw some of the set pieces and got my picture in the jail, and the statue of Andy and Opie

[@BarbaraPolezynski]

I watch it every M-F at 7pm. Love it. Simpler times

[@Realstuffadventures]

Love this, even better with the inclusion of Clint and yourself ! I also like the two guys with the view camera at 6:42, looks like they were shooting 4x5 plates possibly of Rance and Clint..wonder where those images are now?

[@docadams7099]

Thanks so much for sharing, Clint! I love to see home movies and anything related to The Andy Griffith Show. I also can appreciate your feelings about your parents. But I gotta tell you something: My parents were great too. My dad worked for the Postal Service as a letter carrier/clerk, and Mom was a great homemaker and schoolteacher. It's a great advantage to have good parents, and it is a shame that many kids don't have a good mom and dad. Looking at this footage, I see Ellen Corby is right there on her mark, and the footage of her is from "Barney's First Car, where Ellen plays a real shyster! Grandma Walton! I've also seen her in Get Smart and The Addams Family, where she plays Lurch's crazy mother. I love the scenes shot at the lake, too. Thank you for sharing, and much respect to you and Ron.

Vow!👌I am a great fan of this show. Good to see some behind the scenes video!👍

[@CortHowell]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@kevinpyne5808]

This is a treasure. Thank you!

[@CortHowell]

You’re welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@robertwalls5794]

I'm 55 and watch it every night. It's just a good wholesome show that makes you feel good and has stood the test of time. I prefer the black & white episodes over the color, to be honest.

[@CortHowell]

Color episodes feel like a different show, but there are some good ones.

[@JulieAnderocci]

Love mayberry❤❤❤❤❤

[@charlespiper9291]

I want to buy a house in Mayberry

[@loyalUSguy]

So Barney's car was blue! Great episode.

[@Poz53]

Thanks for the memories !!

[@CortHowell]

Any time!

[@joe-vz6hx]

This show was before my time and never got big into it, but I love the sweetness and innocence of it. I remember Jackie Gleason once said something like "you have to have a live audience for a show, it won't work otherwise".... apparently he never saw this show.

[@bd764]

Its amazing how this footage is in color. And the show was filmed in black and white. Also ,its sad that in 1976,the entire 40 acre Desilu backlot ,where this and so many other shows were filmed,was bulldozed to make way for office buildings!

[@wendystjean4678]

So many great moments in those clips. 5:27 Ron helping Clint into his trailer.

[@CortHowell]

Good stuff!

[@Rudimentary007]

Clint seems like one cool dude.👍👍🇺🇸

[@kromedome0101]

Clint, you were great in "Rock & Roll High School"!

[@jameshein-jo8je]

ALWAYS a fan, you all made good tv

[@CortHowell]

Thanks!

[@JB-bn8bf]

Betty Lynn was a doll.She was very attractive, I can't believe she never married. She would have been very sought after in my book. Most attractive on the show.

[@jackieellenbarnes1268]

Very Enjoyable Video 😊

[@lilya7110]

Nice to see “Nice Dress Nellie” at the lake

[@keithhyttinen8275]

I liked Clint's portrayal of the "LA De-Nogginizer" on Seinfeld.

[@perrydankel1279]

Couldn't tell how red Opie's hair was in the Black and White episodes wow

[@JulieAnderocci]

Nice it's beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@CortHowell]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@Machine1955]

Say it ain’t so!!! Thelma Lou is smoking?!!!! ( 8:40) I am crushed!

[@Robert-e2h9z]

And nobody was looking at cell phones

[@2DSTORMS]

I just realized that Opie and Leon's dad was the limo driver in the Governor car episode

[@CortHowell]

And a few other episodes, too.

[@kathyevans3783]

WAS BARNEYS FIRST CAR REALLY A LEMON? IT LOOKS LIKE A BEAUTIFUL CAR!

[@CortHowell]

Gomer found a lot of problems with it. 😂

[@timbrown8038]

Doesn't run on coal.

[@2DSTORMS]

Barney's first car episode in the front yard with Mrs. Maisch

[@carldamacion3740]

Is that one of the stars of Jurassic World in this photo? 7:24

[@CortHowell]

Nice catch!

[@tommo9942]

I never knew Leon and Opie were brothers irl

[@zedwpd]

"Mom wasn't the greatest of cooks. We ate a lot of canned vegetables. And canned vegetables are probably not the most nutritious food." WHAT? Has to be much more nutritious than processed ready made foods.

[@joe-vz6hx]

Not that it's relevant to the topic, but....no, not really, esp as "processed foods" is extremely vague. They vary widely.

[@LaurenceMily-ik9lk]

4th

[@gregoryjohnson8087]

Andy always looks irritated n these videos,nothing like his character.

[@CortHowell]

He was working. And with it being his show, it was kinda stressful. But what a great actor!
