The Andy Griffith Show "No PB&J Sandwich For Barney"

Barney tries to teach Opie and his friends about the seriousness of jail and things don't exactly go as planned.

[@prettyinpink550]

Don Knots was an exceptional talent. He won Emmy awards for playing this part and he sure deserved it!

[@michaelwainscott2633]

He was on the show for five years and won Emmys all five years!

[@jameswilliamjohnson]

@@michaelwainscott2633 Not quite. He won 3 Emmy during his 5 years. He won 2 Emmys for guest appearances after 1965.

[@madkittyjoey70]

Don had a very cute personality!

[@nintendonerdsvideos4727]

@@jameswilliamjohnson Surely he won an emmy for Mr. Furley

[@brianarbenz7206]

Don was the finest comedic actor ever.

These shows never get old. They are ALL CLASSICS

[@andrewcomments5812]

Leon was absolutely adorable. Strange how you never see his parents. He's always toddling around on his own.

[@GM8101PHX]

His parents were often on the set to monitor both of their boys!!!

[@thisislaflaretv5250]

Back then kids could roam

[@jay48538]

His parents were probably busy making more peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

[@donhancock332]

His Mayberry family. His. REAL family is Rance Howard( his father).Ron Howard( his brother).

[@sinclairjg]

Clint Howard - so cute!

[@michaellehman8583]

"No more carefree hours. No more doing what you want. No more peanut butter and jelly sandwiches." Funniest show ever!!

[@chrissteele1362]

Right! What my wife says when she puts me in handcuffs!

[@basilmarasco1975]

No more PB&J sandwiches would be sheer torture.

Whenever Barney tries to make something absolutely clear, he wanders into a bear trap. lol

[@brianandrew9594]

There are no funnier moments in TV history than when Barney Fife goes on his self-inflated diatribes

[@basilmarasco1975]

He's imparting his wisdom.

[@rexoates3353]

Myself and a fellow fireman would laugh about how Barney would put his hand up and say “please Andy”. lol

[@brianmears3388]

Normally, when Leon offers a bit of his sandwich, the response is "No thanks, Leon".

Barney invents the scared straight program. 😆

[@amiblueful]

Love Leon, especially whenever he offered Barney a bite of his PP&J. I also loved how Barney spoke to the cute, mute 3-year-old like he was an adult.

[@james2347charles]

Leon is actually the younger brother of Ron Howard who plays Opie

[@yooneeque1]

Me too :) It's ironic he never spoke on the show, because IIRC Clint Howard did quite a bit of voice acting in cartoons, including the little elephant in The Jungle Book.

[@ashman187]

Dang, TV used to be good and wholesome ...

[@richieboy6825]

And STILL funny!!

[@billschauberger1150]

Andy to Barney :”No more carefree days.No more peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.” Classic comedy.

[@brandamourstudios3004]

Anyone who says Barney is the funny one and Andy is only serious should remember how much Andy tormented Barney like this. Both are hilarious in different ways which makes the dynamic work so well

[@robertawesome2410]

Get the key.

[@robinstewart6510]

Do you know your comment links to a website touting "no cost dating sites?" Might want to watch those spaces between sentences a bit more carefully.

[@patriciaedwards6793]

This one is just too hilarious!! "No more carefree hours! No more doing what you want to when you want to! No more peanut butter and jelly sandwiches!" And the way Andy teased him when he accidentally locks himself in that cell was hilarious too!!!

[@dvdreview7956]

1:35

[@Boskov01]

Leon is precious! Every time I see him and his sandwich, I get hungry for a PBJ.

[@vanmoody]

And the answer to his offer is always, "no thank you Leon". lol

[@patrickforrest4899]

Also Ron Howard’s real life little brother

[@killcharge4338]

Dang it barny you need to stay in jail for attempted murder because I'm dying laughing

[@timothysowers271]

always liked when Barney got locked in the jail cell and his fast draw

[@ghostl1124]

a name they kind of tagged me with,......, fast-gun Fife. .....

[@mrwannabetryhard1482]

Fast draw....I recall him saying in one episode they needed a high speed camera to capture it; otherwise it was just a blur. So funny.

Otis can always get out, and Ernest T. always could, but the two people running the jail could not.

Clint went on to star in his own series, "Gentle Ben," in 1967, a story of a boy and his bear.

[@jackwalker1822]

Classic scene. Best TV series ever. Barney was really something!

[@toneyingram732]

That's where Trump started his stealing at or before

[@adambrady6675]

Scared straight with Barney. No Peaches... LOL !

[@SobersRajakumar]

Andy was the genius who spun off the show into a Don knotts and Andy Griffith comedy. Originally it was planned as just a sheriff comedy show

[@yooneeque1]

Don and Andy both appeared in the movie No Time For Sergeants. IIRC it was Don who suggested the need for a deputy. I think that Andy was originally supposed to be the comedian, but after watching his supporting cast in action, he thought that the show would work better with him in the "straight man" role.

There's an episode where Barney tries to spy on a new doctor in town. At the time, Andy was dating the pharmacist and he was a bit jealous. Turns out this doctor said Barney was anemic and put him out a bunch of iron pills and what not. That's what happens when you don't get inarculated!
