Ernest T Bass.wmv

My little tribute to Mr. Howard Morris who portrayed the character Ernest T. Bass for only five episodes of The Andy Griffith Show. Enjoy!!!

[@leesher1845]

Howard Morris, a native New Yorker, was a comic genius. He directed a number of the episodes, too.

[@fweddyfwintsone4491]

Mr Morris was pure comic genius. The Andy Griffith show was truly a classic. You don't see this level of talent and creativity anymore.

I can't believe this guy was only on five episodes

@@barbaramilone2800 I think gomer was only on for a year, and he became so popular, it's sad that they have the spin-offs that really detract from the show, too bad don knots left for contractual reasons. They should have continued to expand the community with new actors it should have been ongoing they could have even evolved from rural country to city, when Timmy grew up and went to the city, why didn't Lassie move to the city, they didn't have to do the rural Purge they could have done the shift to the city.

Andy Griffith showed that you don't have to be dirty or gross to be funny. I watched this when I was a kid but I also watched Laurel and Hardy, W.C. Fields, The Marx brothers and those went back to the 1920's and 1930's and are still as funny as anything ever made. Each generation has great talent, each generation also puts out a bunch of crap. Don't worry about how old it is, just watch and see if it is funny!

[@larryandamyreaves3827]

Not only was this a memorable character on the show but Morris was really a force as a voice actor for many many cartoons during the sixties. His portrayal of this character was PURE comic genius. Additionally, anyone who grow-up watching Hanna Barbera cartoons will certainly remember the voice and its comedic inflections. Now you are able to place the face with such a great voice actor.

It speaks volumes about the character, writers and of course the actor himself that he was only in 5 episodes? Amazing.

HE only did 5 episodes But in my mind he was a lead character unforgettable earnest T. bass one of the funniest actor's of the 1960's'.don't forget to catch his other work for the untouchables. He played a gangster.

[@gailjarvis2592]

I think his appearing - and rightfully so, as the "lead character" because he was outstanding, is why he was LED OUT of the series: Andy Griffith was known to be moody (even violent at times - throwing things, acting out) and he only got along with a few people. He was also likely to be VERY jealous of the attention Howard Morris got. He didn't like to share the scene - except for with Don Knotts: his lifetime best friend, and also one of only the two people he could tolerate on the show (they weren't afraid of him): - Aneta Corsaut (his many years lover) and knotts. - But again, Griffith would frequently pitch actors from the series when he felt they took attention away from him.

[@pegleg09able]

My grandmother died in 2004. My grandfather was living alone, but was healthy and able to keep house after her death. BUT I was worried that he might be lonesome for her. I would go by my grandfather's house to check on him after I got off work. I wanted to make sure he was ok (he was 91 yrs old then). My grandfather would ask me to stay for awhile and keep him company. We would eat dinner & spend time watching the National news at 5:30 (Dan Rather). I would stay a little longer to help keep my grandfather's mind off my grandmother. At 6:00 we would turn channel to TVLAND. The channel would show 2 episodes of "The Andy Griffin Show" every evening from 6:00 to 7:00 PM. The first set that we watched (as I recall) had both the Darling family and Ernest T on the show. As many times as my grandfather remembered seeing that show through the years...those characters were new to him. I remember him turning to me laughing...(thank God) and he said that he didn't think anyone could be as funny as Barney Fife on the Andy Griffin show (until he saw Ernest T.) Thank you, Howard Morris, for helping my granddad through the grieving process. He lasted a whole year after my grandmother passed...and I know it was because of this show (and this character) that helped him make it!
