One of the most beloved shows in television history, The Andy Griffith Show takes its viewers back to a simpler time of small town America, apple pie, and black and white television… The trademark whistling theme song is one of the most recognizable in history, and the duration of the show in syndicated reruns is unrivaled by its peers. The Andy Griffith Show follows the exploits of the small town of Mayberry and its family values, no nonsense sheriff Andy. Widowed, and father to a small boy named Opie (Ron Howard), Andy is joined in Mayberry by his sidekick Deputy Barney Fife, his relative and housekeeper Aunt Bee (Frances Bavier), and a host of other eccentric characters.
The Andy Griffith Show (Season 5) DVD features a number of hilarious episodes including the season premiere "Opie Loves Helen” in which Opie falls head over heals into puppy love with his teacher, Helen Crump, lavishly spending seventy-four cents on a gift for her… Other notable episodes include "Otis Sues the County” in which the appearance of an ambulance-chasing lawyer leads to trouble when he convinces Otis to sue the county for hazardous jail cell conditions, and "Banjo-Playing Deputy” in which Jerry Van Dyke makes a hilarious guest appearance as Jerry Miller, a carnival act who becomes Andy's deputy for a short time after losing his job…
