A breif history of the show:
Andy Taylor was sheriff of sleepy Mayberry, North Carolina (pop. 1,200). Episodes depict Andy's attempts to raise his young son Opie, and his and Barney's efforts to maintain law in a virtually crime-free town. Residing with Andy at his home at 14 Maple Street is Aunt Bee, who helps care for Opie.
Helping make Andy's life interesting is a town full of
colorful characters, all were like family. Scatterbrained
and busybody Floyd the Barber was always so awed by the world that went on around him.
Emmmet Clark, operator of the Fix-It-Shop, tried to keep pace with his younger companions.
Otis Campbell, served time in the very minimum
security jail, where he voluntarily committed himself for his regular Saturday night visit.
Howard Sprague, straitlaced and catered to his mother's every wish.
Ernest T. Bass, the loony hillbilly who would throw rocks through the townfolk's windows.
Gomer Pyle, the attendant at Wally's Service Station
Andy had several girlfriends over the years:
Ellie Walker, the new lady druggist;
Mary Simpson, the county nurse;
Peggy McMillan, the rich girl that Barney forbid Andy
to see;
Helen Crump, Opie's school teacher. Helen
and Andy got married at the end of the series.
And then there was Barney Fife, whose body looked as fragile as his ego was. The 97-pound lovable imcompetent. Andy never allowed him to carry more than one bullet, and that had to be carried in his pocket and not in his gun. Barney was childish and goofy. Sometimes he did things that were so infuriating that we wanted to give him a swift kick in the county seat. Andy often helped Barney save face, as when he'd lay the groundwork for an arrest and then let Barney accept the praise. And Barney would accept the praise.
ALL OF IT!
