    One more example of the unparalleled acting talent on the Andy Griffith show. No cast could top this collection of off the wall loonies. I didnt realize Hal Smith portrayed Owl in the Winnie the Pooh series. Also I agree wholeheartedly with the comment on Smith being much funnier than Foster Brooks. The great Don Knotts and Smith alone make this show sparkle like diamonds in green grass. These two geniuses are only the first course in a 12 course comedy meal. Best show ever. Open and shut case.

    Back in my day, those days, everybody had a town drunk. Shoot, we had several NEIGHBORHOOD drunks. Some had houses, some lived in the bushes. This comedy was just something everybody saw every day, anyway. It wasn't considered offending anybody, but it was comedic to see a drunk in action. Shoot, I saw a man across the street get in his car, proceed to crank it, then bump my next door neighbor's parked car and proceed to push it about 5 feet down the road in three attempts, with my next door neighbor standing on his porch, screaming the man's name the whole time. Tires were squealing, smoke was billowing,,, you tell me that's not comedy!

    I notice that on Andy Griffith, they never had a pastor who did outreach to these people. You can see how Christianity was banned from television so early on. Everything was made psychological or social, never real Christian spirituality even though the entire decency of the life we admired in these shows is based upon those moral certainties and facts.

    there is *a single episode where they're attending **_All Souls Church,_** and a visiting pastor from New York* gives a sermon about people rushing through life and not slowing down to enjoy the little things (the irony being that Mayberry is a sleepy little town where everything except rumors moves at a snail's pace.) as the above mentioned, the sermon is explicitly not God-oriented; Barney tries to fake having paid attention after the sermon by claiming "no one can talk about sin like you can!" and then is led away by Andy chastising Barney "he didn't talk about sin!...." the closest the episode gets to even mentioning God is the lyrics of the Hymn _Holy Spirit Truth Divine_ sung towards the beginning.

    there was, and still is today, an enormous and coordinated push to keep God and the Bible off the screen and out of the media except in a mocking or derogatory manner. _Davey and Goliath_ as well as _A Charlie Brown Christmas_ had to fight broadcasters multiple times to prevent them from editing out the Christ-based messages the shorts conveyed, and _Veggietales'_ Christian messages were completely gutted through heavy editing of each episode when re-aired (the iconic "God made you special and He loves you very much" was replaced with a hollow "bye!") People just don't want to hear the message, because they either do not believe God is real and that Christians are an "evil" cult that is out to "get" them (most common) or believe that God has ill intentions for them or is their enemy (less common)

    He played the mayor of the Western town of Boracho in the movie "The Great Race" (1965). At one point the mayor, in the midst of toasting the racers with champagne, gets clonked on the head by a falling wooden sign, and staggers briefly in a direct callback to Smith's performance as Otis.

    There is no comparison between Foster Brooks and Hal Smith. Brooks had more subtlety, in that he was trying to portray a man who'd had just a little too much, to be able to make a speech, coherently. But he acted as if he didn't think he was that way, which was why it was so classic. Smith, on the other hand, was too generic and formulaic, a type of performance one sees too often, which makes it stale. I'm not trying to completely condemn Smith, but Brooks was in a different league.
