The Andy Griffith Show - The Complete Fourth Season (DVD, 2005, 5-Disc Set)

I bought this because I enjoyed the season 3 DVD set so much that I received for Christmas. The magic, and all our favorite characters are still there - Andy, Opie, Aunt Bea, Gomer and especially Barney. This season also introduced Goober and placed Helen Krump as Andy's beau, but had fewer Floyd the Barber appearances. Maybe it is the absence of Floyd coupled with the increase of Helen, but this season did not have as many high moments for me as Season 3. The best two - Barney's Sidecar and Citizen's Arrest - are stone cold classics. There are more classics in Season 3, and it seems the episodes that aren't classics in that season are still better than the average episode in Season 4.
That said, this is still a wonderful collection and I would reccommend it to any Andy Griffith fan. Fear not - Barney is still around on Season 5, so you (and I) should probably buy that one soon as well.

EVEN IN TODAYS SOCIETY WHERE IT IS HARD TO FIND SHOWS THAT ACTUALLY HAVE MORAL BACKGROUNDS, YOU CAN LET YOUR KIDS WATCH THESE AND LEARN SOME LIFE'S LESSONS AND HAVE A FEW LAUGHS ALL AT THE SAME TIME.

could not be happier with the product it is just as advertized. will definately order again.the quality and description is just as said.

i needed this season now i have all of them this was a gteat show i grew up with them loved them then and still do great family show

The 4th season has more of my favorite episodes of them all. I can watch these over and over again and never tire of them. I am a big fan of the Andy Griffith Show.

Sheer fantasy that makes me wish my life could be like Sheriff Andy Taylor.

The lady who played teacher Helen Crump (Sheriff Taylor's girlfriend) in this
set died in 1995 of cancer at the age of 62. Her real name was Aneta L. Corsaut.

For those interested parties she is buried in the Pierce Brothers Valhalla Memorial Park Cemetery at 10621 Victory Boulevard in North Hollywood, California, USA. Lot 3, Section 6518, Block G.

Excellent, clean, family fun. All the family is sure to enjoy Ernest T. Bass and the Darling family. One of the classic T.V. episodes of all time is when Barney sets out to rescue Andy and Hellen from the cave-in. If you don't enjoy these classic T.V. shows you had better check your pulse. If you want to show your children why the golden age of television was golden here it is.

This arrived quickly and the DVD was in excellent condition. This product was brand new and reasonably priced. I highly recommend this seller.

I'm a big fan of the early Andy Griffith Show. I felt the show suffered after Don Knotts left, but they did stay true to the small town atmosphere.

I regret that I have to give anything other than a good review. I am sure there are fans out there that know more about the show than I do to be modest but I don't know any.

I am doing some investigating but it seems to me that season four has some editing in it that the others do not.

One is the audience response laughter. In this series it has been taken out of some of the episodes and in my opinion takes away from the feel of the original series.

The other is the video quality appears to be grainier than previous episodes.

However when all is said and done it is still the Andy Griffith Show with some of the funniest episodes so I gave it a good rating.

What a classic! Andy Taylor makes me feel at home. This program is one of the finest ever made. Cute little Opie and the hilarious Barney and Gomer add to it, and Aunt Bee's hospitality and Otis' silliness just make the cake.
