The Andy Griffith Show & Desilu Locations

We’re buying a house there! Mt. Airy, NC is where the real Andy Griffith (the actor) was raised and so modeled the show after his hometown. Snappy Lunch is there, Main St, the whole thing. It’s fantastic.

[@MrFreddarama]

If the "40 acre backlot" had not been demolished and redeveloped it would have become the most famous piece of TV history and today would have been such a big visitor attraction and would have been used for many more productions. It's a sad that it's not around today.

[@theexplodedguys264]

Yeah 😢

[@formermpc10]

Probably not.

[@garystepp1054]

On the air from 1960 to 1968- still on in 2022. That tells you what you need to know about how good that show was. I went to college in Raleigh NC in the mid 80’s and had a group of friends that would recant the last night’s syndicated episode almost every day at lunch. We would laugh and talk about all the great lessons that show would teach and how funny it was. In 1988, I moved to the DC area and actually saw the Darlings (Dillards) at a venue called the Birchmere. After the show, I was able to go backstage and actually meet them. I can’t even begin to tell you how wonderful that moment was.

[@rogerhoke3103]

I am 66 and I am so glad I found this to bring back fond memories of when life was so simple compared to today. Thanks Greg

[@cjsansoo7]

Thank you for bringing back so many pleasant memories. As a child of the 1960's, I remember " The Andy Griffith show" and the characters of Mayberry. Most of them have passed on as have so many of my family members. We didn't know how good we had it back then. I wish I could get in a time machine and travel back to those days!!!

[@timparker3272]

Well, we have an unprecedented number of great shows on the air, movie quality. These shows were good, but you don't think "The Sopranos", "Mad Men", "Breaking Bad", "Yellowstone", "Homeland", "24", "Billions" or "Game of Thrones" can stack up to Andy Griffin and Batman?

[@finallyitsed2191]

@@prestonbealle8632 I made mention of growing up watching these shows. I do think it’s a shame that young kids now won’t have the same opportunity to watch shows like Andy Griffin that focus on good wholesome characters. I never cared for Game of Thrones but Breaking Bad, the Sopranos, and Lilyhammer are completely kick ass but that is a comparison of apples and oranges. Shows for kids and shows for adults. Kids don’t need to grow up on the Sopranos.

[@prestonbealle8632]

@@finallyitsed2191 Fair comment. There are still wholesome, upbeat shows but perhaps not with the true life lessons that Andy Griffith delivered in almost every episode. Also such fare as "Leave it to Beaver", "Ozzie and Harriet", and "Father Knows Best" would teach you something while being entertaining.

[@tampazeke4587]

This amazing video simultaneously brought me feelings of great happiness and great sadness. Part of me wants to believe that Mayberry, or maybe just the Mayberry set, still exists somewhere, fully intact and the characters still live there frozen in time.

[@james-he7xv]

It does, it’s 2 hours from where I live in mt airy North Carolina, Andy’s real hometown and where the show is based on. It’s a new time though so don’t expect Mayberry from that era.

[@Americae_Primum]

I work in the industry and I have worked at every one of these major studios at one time or another, including Warner Bros. Every time I step foot onto these lots, I always take a moment to reminisce on all of these great movies and shows of a classic and wholesome time and place from which they were conceived and flourished. Albeit they were reruns, I watched every single one you mentioned. Andy Griffith was probably my favorite, but really it's hard to pick just one because they were all great. Excellent video, thank you.

[@dadduorp]

As a lifelong SoCal resident and historic preservation activist (as well as an Andy Griffith Show fan), it makes me sad to see the changes Greater Los Angeles has undergone over the course of my 63-year old life. Because high real estate values here attract developers and Wall Street/foreign investors, many of what made LA a tourist attraction and source of local pride has disappeared. Thanks for your video. Well done!

[@maxsmith695]

It is not the same as Hollywood, but San Luis Obispo appears to have preserved much of what SOCAL was like in the 1960’s because large land owners, agreed decades ago, not to sell out to developers and turn it into a SFV, Oxnard or Orange County.

[@michaelconte537]

This is by far THE best video I’ve seen regarding the “then & now” areas of The Andy Griffith Show. The editing, narration, and everything that went into this is “First Class” all the way. There’s no nonsense or wordiness and it gets right to all of the interesting features people clicked on this link to see in the first place. Great historical footage (and obvious knowledge) to compare to current day conditions, as well as some great Star Trek humor. I wish more “KZbinrs” used this as their standard when making videos. Truly an awesome job…well done!!

[@edryba4867]

Hey Greg! I’m really glad you did this. After living in several California cities, I once again live in Culver City. This Comment was written before I watched most of your video, so there’s some information that’s not quite duplicated, but it covers some of the things your video does, albeit a little more in-depth. I was born in Culver City, Ca. I’ve lived in a number of California cities, and I’m very happy to once again be living in my home town. There were SO many studios here! Starting in the “Silent” era of the 1920’s, there was The Mack Sennett Studios (home of gazillions of two-reel comedies, starting the the silent days, and LOTS of Laurel and Hardy two-reelers came from there), Keystone Studios (home of the Keystone Kops), and of course Desilu Culver (more about that later… and as of this writing, that lot, where Stalag 13 once was, and where HUNDREDS of movies and TV shows were filmed, now has a sign out front that reads “Amazon Studios”). Sennett and Keystone are no longer there. But just drive a couple of blocks West of what was Desilu Culver (also known as the “Forty Acres” lot), and you’ll find SONY Pictures (and Columbia Pictures - SONY owns them both). That property was originally something called “Triangle Studios”, but it’s most famous for having been LOT #1 of M-G-M Studios. Did I say Lot #1? They once had SIX separate lots that ran West of what’s now SONY. Well, FIVE of then did… they ran West between Washington and Culver Boulevards. Lot #6 was where West L.A. College and many condos are now. It’s a couple of residential blocks South of Culver Boulevard on Overland Avenue. Just turn left on Overland when you’re headed past SONY. It’s several residential blocks South of Culver Blvd. And that little shopping center on your right as you’re headed South down Overland Avenue - the one with the Ralphs Supermarket in it, along with the Denny’s in the Northeast corner of that shopping center was once the home of “The Ben-Hur Stables”, where horses for Westerns and exotic animals for the Tarzan movies that were made starting in the 1930’s were housed. M-G-M had so much property, parts of it could look like ANYWHERE on Earth. Hundreds of movies were made there, including those great Musicals M-G-M was famous for. There are a lot of soundstages on Lot #1, and they’ve been named after famous movie stars. The Gene Kelly stage is right next to the Fred Astaire stage. They are identical to each other… just to prevent complaints from the stars, such as “HIS stage is ONE FOOT longer than mine!” There are a million stories about the great studios of Culver City. But those will have to do. I want to see this video!

[@denisehogarth5433]

In 1972 a few of my classmates (me included) were lucky enough to visit Paramont Studios. We got to play in the prop dept. look inside for the labels of costumes to see who wore them. We saw part of an episode of Mission Impossible. Very tall men. We saw Jack Dodson (Howard Sprague) and got his autograph. At the end of the day we had a late lunch where we saw a few actors and actresses but our teacher would not let us interupt their meals. What a great memory

Great job on putting this all together. I've seen several good coverages of the old studio'(s), but none as fine as this one. I got to visit a few studio's back in 1969 and loved the tours. Always amazed me the "illusions" they could do making movies and tv shows. Like walking into a building, but in reality they stopped filming once the door opened, and then perhaps days later, picked it up in the studio as they came through the door. Most folks had no idea this was the way it was done. Thanks again for the great memories.

Thank you for doing this, it's actually a benefit to not only fans but people interested in history of the business. Hope you'll take some deeper looks at Desilu operations in the future.

[@kevinpowers9024]

Really good video. This took a lot of time and effort. The 40 acres back lot was also used on The Green Hornet. On almost every car chase scene, you can see they pass the Mayberry Courthouse over and over. If anyone knows, did Bruce Lee and Andy Griffith ever meet? They shared the same filming location during that time. Andys house in Mayberry was also used on a Gomer Pyle episode. In the episode "I'm Always Chasing Gomers", Gomer accidently gets stuck on Carters plane to "Wichita" while going home to see his Mother. While there, Carter sees Gomer everywhere he looks. It's a funny episode. The exterior shots of the house in this episode is the AG house from the AG show. Some great still pics here also. The pic of Barbara Eden kissing Andy on the cheek is cool. She was drop dead gorgeous back then. Who was the guest star in the pic at 18:32? Looks a little like Bill Bixby from his episode, but may not be. Pluto TV has an AG channel. All Andy all the time. I watch a couple of episodes almost every day. We need a Gomer Channel now! Thanks for the video. I really enjoyed it.

Wonderful video. Thank you. This is amazing. Mt. Airy, NC is a very fun place to visit for Andy Griffith Show fans as well. We loved it. My 12-year-old son had a blast. He and we love the Andy Griffith Show.
