One of the few actors in Hollywood who was as interesting as himself as the characters he played. A true American Icon.

Mr. Griffith sells himself short when he says the 8 years on the Griffith Show were the best of his professional career. He was brilliant in the 1957 film 'A Face in the Crowd'.

A beautiful man in so many ways. You get the feeling that the character "sheriff of Mayberry" really was him in real life. Down to earth, caring and sincere.

I just heard a Gilbert Gottfried podcast where he was interviewing Eddie Deezen. Eddie was telling a story about seeing Andy on the set and wanting to walk over and meet him. Apparently Andy was having a bad day and ranting at some of interns. Eddie said it scared him from approaching Mr. Griffith. It was a funny story and just goes to show we are all human and have our bad days. I agree that Andy was one the guys in the entertainment industry.

Fine man rest in peace Andy.

2020....still watching the Andy Griffith Show....one of the best ever made. Love Andy, Don Knotts and Ronny Howard and Aunt Bea!

I love the respect Dave shows to Andy.

I’ve had my daughters watch many of the older classics , But one of their favorites has always been the Andy Griffith Show, They have watched every episode!

I will have to say ANDY GRIFFITH IS WHOLESOME AND TRUE....I WISH WE COULD LIVE LIKE THAT TODAY.ESPECIALLY ANDY AND BARNEY

Interesting note regarding Andy Griffith’s story at the Ed Sullivan Theater is that David Letterman would eventually tape his CBS Late Show there from 1994-2016.

I knew two of Andy's aunts in Statesville NC. The lady I stayed with (she lived next door)said that 'He is a dear boy '.They would go to church together. She loved to hear him sing .

Andy is and will be the greatest southern actor this old earth will ever know.In the year 3000 the Andy Griffith Show will still be airing everyday all over the world.

Andy Griffith was a class act. I've watched his show all my life.

You don't see this kind of excitement and informality with celebrities today. This interview, although Griffith was nervous, is something very special.

Great show, still watch over and over/2021

In early 2007, I started watching reruns of "The Andy Griffith Show." It took many months for me to watch every episode, but watch them I did. It was on one of my local TV stations Monday thru Friday, so it was 5 episodes a week, except for when it was preempted for a network show.

You know you have impacted people when you go on any talk show and get a standing O. He was great.

You watched TAGS and you just felt like you knew them all personally. My favorite show of all time.

Every night I go to sleep with an AirPod in one ear and The Andy Griffith show playing on Netflix. I come home and watch it on TvLand and wake up and watch it. Have no interest in anything on tv these days . Shows like that one will never have an equal or anything like it again.

Sounds like a ferocious case of I Don't Want To Be In The World I Am Stuck In. I've got it too. Like something on Twilight Zone, We hordes of Mayberry-lovers can't stand the way the world is now and need to be emotionally transported back in time. A comfort and protection. Truth is, if you've lived long enough, and were around when The AG Show was made, you'd remember Real Places and People quite similar, without the gags and laugh track perhaps, but a very nice America.

Letterman wasn't necessarily the best interviewer in the early days of his show, but he was really good at bringing out the humanity of his guests...at least the ones who were confident enough to share good stories. Andy Griffith is just wonderful here.

Sgt's was a great flick too. I love how Andy hits every camera...watch him talk to each one....very warm.

that was so nice of dave to surprise andy with such a personal gift at the end. he was touched by it. sweet.

2020, watching The Andy Griffith show right now on TV Land.

Andy Griffith seems like such a nice, down to earth guy.

Just finished Andy and Don, a wonderful book about the careers both men had, but more importantly the deep, respectful relationship they had as friends. No one could make Andy as happy and laugh as much as Don, and he even struggled to preserve Don's legacy after he died, saying his greatest wish was to meet him in the afterlife. Meeting anyone friend or spouse like that in your life seems pretty rare. I know he always regretted letting Don walk for the show, and Hollywood should regret not recognizing Andy better for his incredible portrayal of the truly dark Lonesome Rhodes. He made it look too easy.

vintagemotelguest - I agree, i just watched that and was surprised that he didn’t get an Oscar. I think it was one of those years with a lot of heavy hitters- but still- an incredible performance! I love to watch the show and catch the scenes where it seems Don is trying his hardest to crack Andy up in the middle of the scene. I think shows used 35 mm film then and it was expensive to do retakes, but so funny to still watch Don steal scene after scene!

Two favorite movies of all time. "No time For Sergeants" & "To Kill a Mockingbird."

REST IN PEACE ANDY😇 maybe ILL see ya again in the after life.

Yes, I watch it every night also! That was great TV! Still is.

Just the best. A time long long gone. God I miss Andy and Dave

I love you and miss you Andy Griffith you reminded me of my boyfriend cuz he died first same year then you did it was like losing you both twice

Andy was a wonderful and underrated actor. 'No Time for Sergeants' and 'A Face in the Crowd' have already been mentioned and rightly so, but people should also check out one of his last performances in a film called 'The Waitress,' a small, charming movie in which he really stands out in a supporting role.

I adored "What is was, was football' as a kid. It is still funny. And you get to hear Andy sing the lyrics to "Fishing Hole" which became the theme song for The Andy Griffith Show. "And I don't know whatalll"

One of my favorites and a uniquely American show. I love how Andy played tricks on Barney all in good humor. Barney would get steamed and Andy would be grinning ear to ear. There's an episode which Andy has an important job for Barney and gets him all worked up as he opens his desk drawer and grabs a chalk... You need to go out now and mark all the car tires for over parking (we were expecting him to go out and solve a real crime).

I watch it every night that I can, best show ever.

its so sad there gone like part of the family i grew up watching shows like his

I was in the music industry for many years. A man once asked me, "How do you spot good music ?” I replied, " Good music is popularly played 30 years after it's introduction."--- The same applies to good television shows.

. . . I'm still watching and a big fan in 2020.

👍Mr Andy Griffith was one of the best humans & celebrities I’ve ever witnessed so far in my lifetime. Every time I’ve seen him he has always been a ‘Class-Act’- American as apple pie 🍎 This interview was edited and cut so badly. 😑 Mr Dave (retired way too soon IMO) kept interrupting & I wonder if it ticked Andy off. (??) At any rate, thank you for posting this video. I’ve never seen it. 👍✌️ RIP Mr Andy Griffith, miss you terribly! ✌️

If you only watch the B&W episodes, the Andy Griffith Show is the greatest comedy in the history of TV.

Amazingly enough, the "best years of his life" would soon change as the very next year, he began shooting Matlock, which ran for 9 seasons. He would go on to call that his crowning achievement on TV. Of course, back when TAGS was on, they did 30-32 episodes per season. Matlock averaged about 20 episodes. Today, most shows do approx 18 episodes. Not only that, but back in the 60s, each episode was longer with only one or two, 30-45 second commercial breaks. Even in the early 70s, they stayed at a minute or under for quite a time. Today, it's just about half commercials and half show. That's what I dislike about classic TV on cable. They cut scenes to add commercials. Netflix and other pay channels, do however, run entire shows with no cutting. That said, one season of TAGS was equivalent to two seasons of popular network shows today. This is why people think that the earliest shows on TV ran longer than they did. For example, there was only one season of the Honeymooners, but it was 39 episodes, with a couple "lost episodes. Plus, it was introduced as a routine on The Jackie Gleason Show" and after that one season, it came back to TJGS in the same sketch capacity. So, it seemed like it ran for several seasons.

Ironic that Andy Griffith was talking about working in the Ed Sullivan Theatre and David Letterman did his show there years later at CBS.

This was the first announcement by Andy of the Return To Mayberry movie. The Mayberry cast was all like family. Andy never said things like I don't like that actor and don't want them on the show. Once your a member of the cast your always a member. Sadly most of the cast have passed away. RIP Andy.

This is when Dave was still on NBC. Funny that they were talking about the Ed Sullivan Theater. In a few years the show will move there.

Not crazy about David Letterman. He kept interrupting. Love Andy Griffith always..

I watch 3 times a day in 2021.

Some people we will always remember fondly..

There were only 3 networks back then. I could still remember what my favorite shows were on

ICON my father LOV V V ED him I loved him and will love him forever

Aw. I wanted to hear the rest of his story

It's funny to me that Andy Griffith discribes working in the Ed Sullivan Theater. Dave Letterman ended up in that very theater when he left NBC.

How fascinating that Griffith was talking about The Ed Sullivan Theater, and Letterman also ended up in The Ed Sullivan Theater, when he moved to CBS, decades later.
