Some shows just get better with age. As The Andy Griffith Show turns fifty, the audience continues to grow. This complete fan guide to the show is packed with information gained from access to the complete shooting scripts of the original episodes.

The Andy Griffith Show remains one of America's most-watched programs, gaining new fans through its widespread syndication and strong position in TV Land's classic television line-up. America has embraced the characters of Mayberry---Aunt Bee, Barney Fife, Goober, Opie, and Andy himself---as family members. From Miracle Salves to Kerosene Cucumbers, The Andy Griffith Show has left a lasting impression on our culture, a sweet nostalgic taste for a time gone by.

Title: Lots of fun
Review: A wonderful book of fun filled memories of the Andy Griffith Show. If it happened in Mayberry, or if someone was from Mayberry and surrounding areas, you will find it or them in this book. There isn't much on the history or development of the show, if that is what you're looking for. And there isn't much about the people that played the roles. But that might have taken away from the fun. This is a memory book, and it serves that purpose beautifully.

Title: Welcome to Mayberry
Review: This book treats Mayberry and its beloved residents and visitors as if they were real people, in a real location. It provides a wealth of information about each of the main characters and many of the important visitors. Great book for nostalgia about a bygone age.

Title: The Andy Griffith Show Book
Review: Pretty OK book about the series. It goes into the characters and life in the fictional small town as if they were real. Not the best type of in-depth book of a series, but good for fans of The Andy Griffith Show. Recommended for fans.

Title: Never lose the fine art, of just sittin and starin...
Review: Lists, lists, and more lists...The World lives for and around lists.And that is just what you will find in , The Andy Griffith Show Book.Of course, there are also bio's of the main characters, (along with a few minorones), added with a bit of artistic license, to make Mayberry evenmore like a real place.A place many of us grew up with, and still visit as often as we can.Mayberry reminds us of a different time, when things moved at a muchslower pace, and people were for the most part, nicer.Enjoy, The Andy Griffith Show Book, for it's content, not that there areno show scripts, that has already been done.Who knows, we may run into each other at the, Bluebird Diner...

Title: My mom made me give that gift to him last so that he wouldn't get distracted while the rest of us opened presents - and she made
Review: I bought this as a Christmas present for my grandpa who loves Andy Griffith. My mom made me give that gift to him last so that he wouldn't get distracted while the rest of us opened presents - and she made a good call. He spent all of Christmas day reading through and looking at the pictures. This is someone who has watched every episode hundreds of times.

Title: It was a father's day gift
Review: So I just got these book for father's day 2014 along with another book. I'm not really a fan but my dad is and when I gave him the book - he was instantly swapping the Griffith book and 'The Old Car Nut Book' (which I purchased as well) back and forth. I do believe I picked a proper gift for my father this year.

Title:
Review: Briefly, this book is kind of semi-fictional, it takes the Mayberry characters and adds a lot of embellishments to their lives. What may have been their background story. It's not actually a book about the show itself. The way it was made and all that. It's okay I guess, but it wasn't what I was expecting.
