Elinor Donahue discusses working with the cast of "The Andy Griffith Show"- EMMYTVLEGENDS.ORG

[@willminkorea2010]

Very gracious person-deflecting credit. She was PERFECT for that role.

[@ARGthePirateGaming]

She was GORGEOUS back in the day. Still is.

[@cami42874]

Elinor was great on the Andy Griffith show and father knows best

[@TheDudezer]

I have always liked this woman-even in her heyday. You can tell she is a genuine real person and not some phony. Always a beauty, inside and out, and still looking very attractive here in her late 70s.

[@burntvirtue]

My god was she beautiful on the Andy Griffith Show! She had an amazing presence too. A combination of strength, and vulnerability that was uncommon in that era.

[@billabsher4306]

Such nice comments about your fellow actors,please know you are loved by millions, and yes I had a crush on you growing up, you are just stunning. You help bring so much joy into our homes. Thank You! Please take care!

[@jackhackett80]

she was a stunner in her day

[@DanDDirges]

That Away In A Manger scene was one of the best in television history.

[@andrenewcomb3708]

"Father Knows Best" is a pretty decent 'credit' to her career.

[@rottyangel770]

She looks so natural. Not "movie-starish" Which I mean as a compliment.

[@signalstatstevedouglas1387]

I have met Elinor many times such a sweet sweet lady. 🎄

[@Electricbanjoman]

I remember her from Father Knows Best as well !

[@dickbuelow8968]

I wish I had known the cast of this great show,,what a classic

[@wiseguymaybe]

I always thought that Andy Taylor should have married Ellie the druggist not Helen Grump. No offense to actress Aneta Corsaut, it was just her character.

[@MsLane61]

I have always wondered why The Andy Griffith Show, in all those years, only created one single Christmas episode.

[@johnlee-yo8jc]

She was perfect for the Andy Griffith show. Peggy was good too. Really did not like Helen Crump.

[@larsrask3727]

Ellie Donahue was nice.

[@mattf49006]

i had a hell of a crush on her growing up..

[@fumingriley]

Elinor was a very good actress, from Father Knows Best to TAGS. I always thought she was the 2nd best girlfriend for Andy (Peggy - Joanna Moore would have made a great wife for Andy) and Elinor was also in my favorite Star Trek episode "metamorphosis"

[@berthamartin9742]

I really like her, I wish she could have married Andy for real........

[@jondstewart]

Such a nice lady on Andy Griffith and Father Knows Best, but on that episode of Star Trek she guest starred in, she was such a heartless and bitter person in power that was soon revealed deep down inside as a very lonely, distrustful, and hurting woman.
