Book Description
On the February 2, 1960, episode of The Danny Thomas Show, entertainer Danny Williams (Danny Thomas) is arrested for a traffic violation by a small-town sheriff named Andy Taylor, played by a good-natured Southern actor named Andy Griffith. Thus was born one of the most popular television shows of the 1960s--The Andy Griffith Show. From the time it officially debuted in October 1960, The Andy Griffith Show was a perennial favorite on CBS, finishing its eight-year run as the top-rated show on television. It also produced some of the most remembered characters (Andy, Opie, Aunt Bee, and Barney Fife) of the era. Each of the show's 249 episodes is fully detailed here, including air dates, cast and production personnel, guest stars, and a bevy of facts about that particular episode. The 1986 television movie Return to Mayberry is covered in detail. Brief biographies of the show's major stars, producers, directors and writers are also provided.

Book Description
On Monday evenings between 9:30 and 10:00, the American television audience enjoyed The Andy Griffith Show on CBS. The Andy Griffith Show never ranked lower than number seven and always remained in the top seven throughout its eight seasons. The show had an average rating of 7.6 out of 10, with The Christmas Story, Season One, Episode Eleven, ranking 8.2 out of 10. The show averaged thirteen to sixteen million viewers per episode per year over its eight-year run. The Griffith Show aired in the 1960s during a time when Americans could escape one of the most traumatic periods in history and the sorrows of the assassinations of an American president and a prominent African-American movement leader, draft and war riots, the epidemic drug crisis, the horrible news pictures of the Vietnam War, and rising crime. Mayberry, North Carolina, was the setting for fictional characters such as Barney Fife, Floyd the Barber, Gomer and Goober Pyle, Aunt Bee, and Helen Crump. Let us not forget the hilarious mountain man, Ernest T. Bass, and many more characters. The show was witty and zany, and Americans laughed while watching it. The audience loved the quietness, the pleasures, the closeness, the virtues, and the Southern hospitality of small-town life. They enjoy the personal touch of the relationship among easy-to-get-to-know town folks. However, there were times of sadness, disappointment, and everything in between, but it was all overshadowed by love and joy. The characters portray the pleasures of living in and the advantages of a small town instead of city life. The show inspired other rural life programs such as The Beverly Hillbillies, Green Acres, and Petticoat Junction, all wholesome programming for the family, such as the Griffith Show. Mayberry: The Andy Griffith Show Characters is about 19 of the supporting and recurring roles of the individuals who performed as the Mayberry citizens. Before appearing on the sitcom, some of the future Griffith Show stars had little or no experience in television and movies. Other actors and actresses already had plenty of professional experience in television, films, and the theater. Mayberry: The Andy Griffith Show Characters covers each character's early acting career, their Griffith Show memorable episodes, and their career after they depart from the show.

Book Description
Half a century after viewers first watched a father and son walking to the local fishing hole, whistling a simple, yet unforgettable, tune, The Andy Griffith Show remains one of the most popular sitcoms in the history of American television. Tens of millions of viewers have seen the show either in its original run, its ongoing reruns, on DVD, or on the internet. Websites devoted to the show abound, hundreds of fan clubs bring enthusiasts together, and a plethora of books and Mayberry-themed merchandise have celebrated all things Mayberry. A small cottage industry has even developed around the teachings of the show's episodes. But why does a sitcom from the 1960s set in the rural South still evoke such devotion in people today? In A Cuban in Mayberry, acclaimed author Gustavo Pérez Firmat revisits America's hometown to discover the source of its enduring appeal. He approaches the show from a unique perspective—that of an exile who has never experienced the rootedness that Andy and his fellow Mayberrians take for granted, as folks who have never strayed from home or lived among strangers. As Pérez Firmat weaves his personal recollections of exile from Cuba with an analysis of the show, he makes a convincing case that the intimacy between person and place depicted in TAGS is the secret of its lasting relevance, even as he reveals the surprising ways in which the series also reflects the racial, generational, and political turbulence of the 1960s.
