There was nothing funnier than Don Knotts as Barney Fife on The Andy Griffith Show.

Knotty you got to be kidding about not knowing about The Andy Griffith Show.

Reading knotty's post just aged me a bit. Andy Griffith wasn't in it's first run when I was a kid, but everyone my age knows it (through repeats on TBS). I'm now guessing that most of the younger crowd missed out on Ron Howard's next big TV show "Happy Days"!

I'm only 27yr. old. I knew the name of the show, but didn't remember all the actors on the show.

There's probably two generations already that just know Ron Howard as the director of films like A Beautiful Mind and Cinderella Man and not as Opie.
