- At 70, Ron Howard FINALLY Admits How Much He Truly Hated Him
Although shows are on air for a few years and movies are one-time things, some are truly timeless in America's hearts. Fans come to know and love characters who end up feeling like real friends as we become accustomed to their personalities, strengths, and weaknesses. Like every other high profile show, what unseen drama and hidden rivalries lurk when the curtains are dropped and the cameras turned off? Does Ron's mysterious disdain for Opie reveal deeper secrets lurking beneath the surface?
Join us as well delve into the reasons why Ron Howard Truly Hated Him.
I didn't read anything about anyone hating anybody...
I loved Don Knotts. Seeing The Ghost And Mr Chicken on the big screen when I was six years old was an amazing experience.
I LOVE The Ghost and Mr. Chicken. Such a wonderful film and Don is perfect in it.
I love that movie 🎬
The BEST! Such a great movie!
All of Don's movies were good. However, The Ghost and Mr Chicken was his best. The Incredible Mr Limpet was also very good.
I’m 77 & I remember when the show first started, I still watch this loved show!
As a child actor, Ron Howard never sounded like a dumb little kid reciting lines. Can we take a moment to appreciate how verbally talented he was compared to other child actors? He articulated his lines so perfectly and seemed very intelligent by the way he spoke. That verbal talent has served him well throughout his long career in the biz!
Grew up watching this and at 54 I am still watching it every day! I have the Andy Griffith trivia game… and can beat anyone! I know every single episode and each character. It is my all time favorite show! It’s when TV was worth watching and always had a great message and loads of laughter along the way… mixed in with a few tears at times. It was the one show our whole family loved and enjoyed together. I now have 2 grown children and they also grew up with this show… it’s truly a timeless classic. Thanks for all the laughs through the years! And being a native of NC (Charlotte) made it all the more special… All those sayings and the southern talk made it more than just a show and characters…. They seemed more like extended family! 📺🍿📽🎬🏡 🎣 🐟🔫⚖️🚔🚓👨✈️👨✈️🪕🎶💙
Ron said in an interview that Andy was much like his own father.
Every time I have read about Andy and Ron , Howard says ‘he was all business.’ Don did not quit, his contract was up and he signed a 3 picture movie deal. He stated he was flabbergasted when Andy called him back for another year! He had always told Don that they were working for 5 years only.
Don Knox was extremely talented especially in that role. His daughters said he would practice nightly for hours in front of a mirror for the next day’s shoot. He didn’t quit until he perfected his facial expressions etc. What a great talent.
The show was about wholesome family values where caring for one another wasn't just accepted, it was expected. In today's sitcom offerings the show is also unique in that it had no political agenda. The only thing the show promoted was decency and respect.
Good Day. I'm 72. The "Sitcom Days" on TV were wonderful. This was one of the great ones. I can still hear the opening whistling tune.
Thank You and Best Regards.
As kids, we did not like Opie because we could not live up to the expectations he put out which made our parents not like us as much as opie
A face in the crowd is worth a watch. It is one of my favorite older movies.
This was an iconic creation and so superior to anything now. Children of any age could have watched it and the stories depicted and the characters were wonderful. Thanks for a great overview!
Thank you ! "A Face In The Crowd" is one of the greatest American movies, ever.
My father was lucky to meet Andy and Danny at a NYC restaurant in 1965. He autographed the menu and said thanks. The thanks meaning how much I enjoyed the show.
simply the best family television show ever! 🌈
whenever I watch my favorite episode
"Opie the Birdman", it never
fails to warm my heart! ❤ ❤ ❤
I've watched this show since it began. Our cable carries 3 hours of old episodes every day . This show brings a strange comfort to me. Each character is played so well they became real to viewers. I loved the show all those years ago, and I still do. Rest in peace to all those neighbors and friends I made so long ago,..❤ Thank You ...😊
My very first car was a 1964 ford galaxy 500. I traded a tv and a cb radio for it and I thought it was the greatest car ever. 😊
OLD MAN HERE LOVED IT
Everyone in Mayberry seemed very happy!
Everyone in Mayberry was single.
Except for one character...Otis the town drunk
As a kid in the '60's, I always loved Andy Griffith. My parents even had an album of him telling G-rated jokes!
I remember Andy, Opie, aunt bee, Barney fife & all the gang. I was just a little kiddo, but I remember all their shows. Thank you for such great memories!!! I still watch then any chance I can.
Loved this show then and still love it today, I also loved "Happy Days"👍♥️🙏✝️✌️😎
These shows had an integral part to society learning about empathy and morals. I wish they showed these in school to the youngest of our children. Along with Little House On the Prairie.
I loved Matlock episode with Andy Griffith and Randy Travis singing together. ❤
Im 76 and could have gone to meet my maker without knowing Andy was hated by Oppie. Loved that show and still watch it.
Don Knotts and Jim Nabors were my two favorite characters. ❤ 😂 😅 😊
I grew up in Hummelstown PA. back in 1963 - 67. It was my Mayberry with a crik and soda pop machine as well as many other things.
That's sad to hear that he wasn't happy about being a child actor, being that he was so great at it. We still love the two most memorable characters he played, Opie and Richie. And as for all the other hats he wore, we will never forget Ron Howard!!!❤❤❤
This was when family was held in high regards. I miss these days.
I still watch The Andy Griffith show today! Every evening I never miss it! It's still one of my favorites! If Ron Howard despise Andy "You could've fooled me" lol
Ron Howard lived in my building. He is a kind and gentle man. Everyone loved him.
Remember this a TV show/ make believe, it's known as acting. Not everyone that works together, gets along. Period
I remember watching this show when I was little . It was a show that we could all watch as a family !! The shows today are so very different from back then . U hv to kw what the shows are rated today before u sit down to enjoy it w/ your family !!
Ron Howard has interviewed about this numerous times. He said he loved the experience and both Griffith and Knotts were very good to him.
Andy Griffith Show/Mayberry RFD was actually a spin off from Danny Thomas Show... Danny got a traffic ticket from Andy...
What great memories still of a great sitcom & Ron Howard!!
Fan from Massachusetts
My sister in law hated that show because she felt it made the ppl in the south look stupid. I never felt that way and lived the little town life it portrayed. Wish life was still like that. Im from NC and if i remember correctly the show was filmed at Mt Pilot area. Aunt Bee lived in Siler City in NC and lived in the same house untill she passed. It was nothing to drive by her house, looked like any southern home in the area. A lot of towns in NC were just like Mayberry for yrs. Mainly small towns etc. Im proud to be a southerner and really do not care what other ppl think about southerners. U cannot find nicer ppl and ppl that will go out of their way to help others. A good majority of NC excluding some of the big cities r stiil the same in helping others.
Ron did good for himself, he is still friends with Henry aka fonz. I love Ron's movies he produces. Thank you Ron for all the hard work and great movies you made in motion pictures. Thank you.
Thank you Andy Griffith for all the fun.
They treated Child actors like dogs .. look what they did to Judy Garland .. up until 90s kid actors where treated badly .. that’s why they “snapped”
Andy was a giant actor, Face in the Crowd was a master work! Knotts was a war hero. These are the best of people.
I REALLY ENJOYED THAT SHOW OPIE WAS A CUTE LITTLE BOY BRINGING BACK MEMORIES
Thank you for all the hard work. I am 59 and love this show.
When I was in the Navy, I drove from Virginia Beach to my home in North Atlanta. I drove all around North Carolina, and never saw any town like the one in the series. Remember the town in the series had dirt streets. I never saw a town in North Carolina like Mt. Airy.
Ron Howard is the spitting image of his old man.
Ron Howard is a master of cinema, who has created groundbreaking and emotional works, enriching the art of filmmaking with his exceptional creativity and talent !
Fun fact: Sheldon Leonard, the show's creator, was a role model for the creators of The Big Bang Theory, hence the names of their lead characters: Sheldon Cooper and Leonard Hofstadter.
Mayberry was actually based on Mt. Airy NC. VERY spot on
I have learned it’s best to know nothing about the characters of actors in shows or movies.
It was sad Andy was so greedy he wouldn't share with Don Knott's
Don Knott's made that show.....
Thanks for the memories.
I grew up watching this show…what a shame there was hidden conflict for all those years
A little discussed concept in child psychology explores the transformation of every person pre puberty and post puberty. The personality of each of us largely disappears once puberty fully sets in. I think of it as if there is one actor playing the role of each of us from infancy to puberty, then another actor taking over the role as the post puberty person. Some traits we had in those young years carry over, but many disappear. This allows the older version of us to look back on the younger version as they would look at a sibling or person they knew in school.
I loved the old commercials. When Fred and Barney shared a pack of Winston's.
Menthol!
Wow! That was a ton of information. Thank you for your hard work and research putting this together.
This show came out the year I was borned. My kids watched the reruns in the 90s, along with Leave it to Beaver. Thanks to TV Land.
When I need to relax or deviate from the hate and down times, I watch my boxed set and just relaxes me. Love this TV series: no violence but southern humor and a moral to boot. I have my favorites of course and some I don't like but still my all time favorite TV.
Have enjoyed this production of Andy Griffith and The Andy Griffith Show. Was a favorite in our house. And yes , I lived in North Carolina... Born and raised there.. Lived that show.Tha m you for this look back
..
Ðon Knotts and Jim Nabors were my favorite characters on the show. ❤ 😂 😅 😊
Great show growing up with back then and still love it
A great show and actors in a much simpler time in life!
Ron Howard.... One of the finest, most real, of all the child actors.... He added much to the series!!! Opie and Barney are my fav, but all in it are great!
I know people who worked with Andy. They said he was a mean man.
That kid was amazing at memorizing his lines!
Ron and my oldest brother David were born the exact same day, 3/1/54.
I think Ron Howard as a director and a movie producer is awesome. I've lived all the movies that he's done. When I was younger because I'm 63 now, I remember watching Andy Griffith along with Mayberry RFD and thought that would be a fun town to live in.
I always thought Andy Griffith was a very good-looking guy back in the day. I don't know about Ron Howard hating Opie since that's the character he plays.
Great show. I probably saw every episode, many, numerous times.
I grew up in a "Mayberry" that was much smaller than the one on TV. A population of 75 or so if everyone was home. Now there are 5. Pretty much a ghost town. The only thing left is the post office.
Our family still watchs ! 😊
I loved the black and white episodes with Barney on it. The ones in color without Barney just sucked
I always heard in interviews that Ron and Andy always got along
Love the show still watch it when it comes on reruns and I loved every single cast and character, as well as the actors and actresses who were the actual singers of the Darling family. One of my favorite songs that they do on the show is There is a Time which I do have downloaded to my phone.
I knew Aunt Bea and Andy didn’t get along but I didn’t have any idea about Opie and Andy.
This was my favorite show growing up. And my favorite adult years were the one's I spent living in small towns.
This was too sad to read about
I cant believe it. This was one of my favorites too. Im approaching 73 in Aug
Loved this show and the characters. I especially loved Opie.
If he wasn't a goofball he wouldn't be Barney Fife! ❤😂😅😊
Ronnie should be grateful for the opportunity he had with Andy Griffith. Without it, he would be where he is now.
Andy Griffith was a lovable public persona and a very good actor. My favorite movie of his is "A Face In The Crowd", with co-star Patricia Neal. Anybody who likes him should try to see the film. I also remember that he did a record that was awfully funny. It came out in 1953, about a football game. I found it very clever as a kid.
Interesting video. Loved the show. Still do.
Aunt Bee seemed like the type you wouldn't want as a neighbor, glad she made amends before she passed. I think the fact she never married or had kids may have been a big part why she was so uptight.
Even though I have seen every episode of the Andy Griffith Show many many times I still watch them. It takes me to another time in my life and in the world. To me, a better time in many ways.
I grew up on syndicated television. The two personalities if you can learn to jockey between them that will get you the furthest in life are Andy Taylor and Captain Kirk. Be a balance of these two and you can handle anything.
My favorite character on the show? Ernest T. Bass! Hands down!
One of the greatest tv shows ever.
Love this show. My favorite characters were Barney,Opie,Goober, Ernest T Bass & the Darlings. Ernest T was a hot mess. I still watch this show.
One of the greatest shows ever.
I went to high school with a girl that at the time of graduation said she was Ron Howard sister n law and was going to stay with her sister for the summer and said she was aloud to invite someone to bring with her and asked if I wanted to come and meet people from the set of happy days
LoL I declined and I have never found out if she was being legit
This was 1978 in Red bluff CA
Loved watching Gomer Pyle ❤❤!!! I lived in Hawaii in the 70's and 80's, and would see Jim Nabors looking out at his beach house at the ocean!!!
Thanks Ron Howard, idk what i would have done without growing up watching the Andy Griffith show, and now Bryce Dallas Howard as an adult lol.
I saw Ron Howard playing the son of a single Mother who was dating a man. I recall he had a rectal thermometer temperature taken, frequent back then.
Love the aerial shot of St Andrews University in my hometown, fished and rode bike on the many sidewalks there as a kid, later as a student there, always has a soft spot for St Andrews
A fictitious town where the only person married was the town drunk.
He can thank Andy for his career.I doubt he would have gone very far if it wasn’t for Andy.
Citizen's arrest! Citizen's arrest!
I knew Aunt Bea didn't get along with Andy, but I find it hard to believe a young child could have acted as close to "Paw" as Opie seemed, if he actually didn't like Andy. Kids that young can't hide things like that very well...they're too honest about how they feel. Still love the show. Takes me back to when values mattered.
Don Knotts and Andy Griffith were like brothers. Andy was there when Don passed away.
Iconic show! Moral ethics were always the underlying theme. At 67 I still watched regularly.
It is called ACTING, and Ron’s acting fooled the audience. Now, the characters that the actors portrayed will always love each other.
