“We didn't have reruns back then, so when the show ended we thought it was over. I'm overwhelmed by how long the show has been popular and by how many people still love it today. I still watch the reruns and just laugh! Here in Mount Airy they show the Andy Griffith Show at 3:30 in the afternoons and they call it "Andy After School", but the show wasn't just for kids, it was for everyone.” PeopleLongHas BeensStillsShowsKidsTodaySchoolWatchesLaughingAfternoonOverwhelmedAiryAfter SchoolRerunsAndy Griffith Show Author:Betty Lynn
“Andy [Griffith] and I spoke on the phone not too long before he died. I told him I loved him and he told me he loved me. He was a wonderful man.” MenLongWonderfulDiedPhonesSpokesWonderful Man Author:Betty Lynn
“On the third Friday of each month, I go to the Andy Griffith Museum. I get to meet hundreds of fans who stand in long lines for hours to meet me. Some months I don't feel too good and I think maybe I won't go, but then when I go and get to be there with so many wonderful people it always lifts my spirits and makes me feel better. I wouldn't stand in line for hours to meet me, but I'm so glad my fans do.” PeopleThinkingFeelsLongSpiritHoursLinesWonderfulFansMonthsThirdsGladLiftsMuseumsFeel BetterFridayLong LinesMake Me Feel BetterEach Month Author:Betty Lynn
