The thing about the Andy Griffith show was that it was a wholesome show that people reference in nostalgic ways, and it was actually well done. Too many projects are put out there for people to watch because they're "family friendly" that are nothing but dreck, but folks are supposed to ignore the low quality because they're "clean".

That wasn't The Andy Griffith Show. I can still watch the episodes with Barney (yeah, the quality deteriorated a bit after he left) and really enjoy them.
