He is one of my influences in stand up. I will miss him greatly.

The women prison escapees! Hilarious!! How about the one where Barney pretended to be a mannequin in the local sporting goods store - to catch a shoplifter? Just thinking about these shows makes me laugh!

Good clean fun & tons funnier than anything they're putting out now!

OMG yes! I laughed so hard!

Could you imagine gettting that line into a show these days?

Barney to Andy - "lets go up to the old folks home and take the bolts out of the wheelchairs! That would be fun too, wouldn't it"!

I know I'm getting old, but this news really makes me feel old and sad. Barney should live on forever, and thanks to re-runs he will. He provided many laughs to me, my family and across our beloved country.

In a jailhouse, down in dixie,
fighting crime and risking life.
Dwelt a sheriff and his buddy,
pistol packing Barney Fife.

I think this will break Andy Griffith's heart. They were great friends.

He was a very good actor and very funny too. I will watch my dvd's of The Incredible Mr. Limpet and I also own 4 movies in the reluctant hero box set which include: The Reluctant Astronaut, The Ghost and Mr. Chicken, The Shakiest Gun in the West and The Love God.

Last verse: :-)

Oh, my Barney, oh, my Barney, had a jail and couldn't lock it. Had one bullet for his pistol, had to keep it in his pocket.

That episode was one of my favorites too. My parents (for some reason) were never big Andy Griffith fans but i got them to watch that particular episode one day and they had to wipe tears from their eyes they were laughing so hard.
