You know why we watch the reruns? Because we know for a fact that we are going to enjoy it all over again, that for 30 minutes we will be in Mayberry and that for 30 minutes the bills don't matter, the job doesn't matter, the pain in your knee doesn't matter, the snow doesn't matter....nothing matters. We have escaped to Mayberry and all we really want is a Cherry Coke from Wally's Filling Station and to sit on the front porch and count cars and wave to people. If only for 30 minutes.
My friends poke fun at me because they know that at between 7 and 8pm. Im watching this show. They also know that I've seen them 20 times a piece and counting. Keep them coming METV
Not METV; came across the clip on social media. But you're right, it's very fitting for these times and I wish people would listen to Andy's droll wisdom!
@@adavis3464 It's disease mongering by the pharmaceutical companies. It was extremely rare anyone would get tetanus and if you did in most cases the immune system would deal with it.

@@adavis3464this comment didn't age too well. Propaganda was going as strong then as it is now in 2024. Taylor Swift is the new Andy Griffith. Hollywood has been brainwashing people for years, haven't they?
He is - some people can do it. When he told the kds the story of Paul Revere and his horse, it had them mesmerized (and Barney). Part of script but still, he told stories very well.
@@dj3114 That scene was perfect, I always pictured Barney as just a tall skinny child pretending to be an adult man in a uniform. He handles his revolver like a little kid plays with a cap gun 😅
@@voodoodudu2547 After watching it again, Andy certainly outdid himself, but couldn't have sold it as well without the fine acting of Jack Prince. "You dang right . . . what's that mean?"
The actor that played Rafe - Jack Prince is in another episode. There was a singing contest and all the women were thinking NO! I reserached Jack Prince and learned that at a very young age he was trained in singing.
My, you re-ser-ached Jack Prince ! It is common knowledge many actors started out in music. and it is Researched. There is an Edit feature to fix mistakes.
@@carminemurphy1275The last Perfect person was hung on a cross. I'm sure if you can be honest, you can admit to not being perfect at spelling or other things as well. Right? So be nice. This whole series of shows were teachable moments that we all learned from.
I recall this episode - Rafe refused the shot. He was brought in still refused. When Andy told him about dying he was like huh? what dying NO! I want to live. Now you fetch me that county nurse I'll take that shot. He gets the shot and the nurse looks at the chart and tells Barney that he needed a shot as well lol
My grandmother was one of 7 children, and about 1918 her youngest brother died of tetanus, they were farmers in southeast Kansas. We love watching these old Andy Griffith shows
I probably saw this episode when it originally ran in 1962. I know I saw it at least a couple of times when I regularly watched Andy Griffith re-runs more than 20 years ago. I hadn't thought about it at all until a couple of days ago when I was reading a news account about a 24-year-old anti-vaxxer ER nurse who worked at a hospital near me who died from covid, probably from the Delta variant that is spreading in my area. I suddenly recalled the way Andy convinced Rafe to get his shot. Too bad we live in the real world and not in Mayberry.
LOL, I've been long overdue a tetanus booster last several doctor visits. She brings up the subject every time I go, but I keep refusing the shot. I told her last time I'd take it next visit just to get her off my back. She'll hold me to it I bet. Wouldn't surprise me when I go next month, the nurse will have that shot waiting soon as I walk in the room. LMAO, I know it's silly to get so worked up. I just hate getting shots. I dread it.

Dig my grave with a silver spade. Dig my grave wide and deep. Dig my grave with a silver spade. Bury me beneath the wet Earthry. Place my grave on a snow white hill. Cover me over with sod. Tell them I died to save em all. Tell my wife to marry again.😄 Too funny.
Ive seen plenty antivaxxer arguments claiming that mandating vaccines is a new thing, when in reality its always been a thing. Most schools required multiple vaccines long before COVID, the military mandates Flu shots, you needed to get certain shots to travel to certain countries (especially those with high mosquito populations), and plenty of jobs required them. This isnt anything new.

Not to mention the mRNA vaccine isn't a traditional vaccine and is still experimental. You probably don't know that millions of the first polio vaccines were contaminated with simian virus 40 which causes cancer.
I find this extremely funny the Andy guilted rafe into getting his Technic shot even though it should have been his choice not Andy's not the county nurses not anybody else's doesn't that remind you of somebody I'm not naming names here you can draw your own conclusions but think about it guilt trips this it will help you help your family really that's all I got to say
I’ve tried the Chordify app but couldn’t find it, but it goes A Minor to D Minor to A Minor to E back to A Minor. (I think). He might have some other kind of tuning going on to.
It is mRNA gene therapy, and is in no way, shape or form a "vaccine". I hope you were wearing your Simpleton Sheeple Mask and Goober Gloves while you typed that brainwashing you managed to dribble out. Isn't it time for your 8th _booster shot?_
He sure would have had a lot of songs to write and funerals to go to over Covid. I bet it would have blown his mind that people were refusing a free vaccination
My Grandparents were also old school democrats. However, the modern Democratic Party of today is nothing like the party of the past. In short, it was taken over by the communists and the far left in the 60’s and 70’s.
I watch this show all the time on the Sundance channel, but this morning I saw it a lot different than all the time before. Ray Hollister was an antivaxxer lol but he gave in.
Bullshit. Since all vaccines can have side effects, nobody should be getting a shot unless they have a clear and convincing reason to do so, this only after discussing their overall health (drugs, alcohol, allergies, medical history, etc) with a real doctor, not some county nurse.
Gee, what is there to see? Do you see people in a car without a Simpleton Sheeple Mask on, that can think for themselves? Did you get your blood clotting shot? And did you get a 7th "booster"?
there was aold farming paradise in Hollister, more Italian up north Near Simeon, Down in the in Above Area, Pasadena Back to the Future! It was better already before America!
Why hadn’t ol 50 or so year old rafe kicked off in all his travels and handy work prior to this shot? Like he all of a sudden has to be fear stricken and strong armed into giving in to pharmacia for his only hope for salvation. Crazy
@@berg_8322 The man politely declined to get the shot. Then they came back and threatened him. Then they took him to jail. All because the nurse who didn't give a shit about him, was afraid she'd look bad because she promised her boss 100% compliance. Why did Andy help? To get in the nurses pants. I don't think you watched the episode ever.... Trespassing, kidnapping, fear and intimidation against that man's will and it wasn't even for something communicable, so throw that argument out the window.
@@danielopdyke1321 actually i have watched it. more times than i can count. it’s Andy’s Duty to protect the people of Mayberry, and that’s exactly what he did. also he did not politely decline. he was very rude in how he expressed his feelings about the shot, and then him being arrested wasn’t because he refused to get one

I think you articulated the continued success of the reruns quite succinctly.
I hope everyone doesn’t go all
“ photosynthesis “ on it.
It makes me think of my Papa. ♡
Comfort is psychological ease.
Andy Taylor was a beautifully gifted man . I am grateful for the fact I lived in a time where I was able to enjoy his skills .

This show will go on forever. Love it.
Everyone in this show played their parts perfectly
I have seen that scene at least a dozen times IT is a magnificent scene among many of them in a great show Definitly one of the top 5 shows ever
The Andy Griffith Show might be my favorite sit-com ever made.
If your watching this in 2021, you probably just saw this episode on METV. How fitting in these times.

That’s what makes that show so great.
This shows just how brilliant Andy is!
My wife knew him & says he was a genius at his craft.
God how i miss these simple times and the great humor ! Days long gone !
One of my favorite episodes out of many many good ones, when tv was good and clean.
Gotta love Andy !
"Don't that clutch you?" 😂
Wow, even after all these years Sheriff Taylor taking folks to school. Love it.
I don't want to be a dead me I want to be a live me! I was waiting for that part!

One of my favorite Andy episodes. I love the part about the slumping statue of Rafe.
Andy sure scared the daylights out of Rafe!
How haunting, how beautiful, and how great Andy Griffith was at finger picking.
😀😀😃😃 one of an all time favorite of mine , makes me laugh everytime i watch ths episode !!
I feel lucky to have grown up when wholesome shows like Andy Griffith was on TV where you had no worries just laughter
At least Rafe will never get myocarditis.

Whatever
this was so great!!!
If you ever pondered the idea of Andy Griffith living to see this day, you don't have to, he beat us all to the punch.
Don't that clutch ya!
I love every episode where they do good music. I especially love the Darlings doing "There Was A Time" with Maggie Peterson. So haunting.
I don't want to be a dead hero! I want to be a live me!.
My Father mainly likes Andy Griffith because he says Andy looks exactly like his uncle
🥱
I youtube this song and out of the 2 that i heard Andy version is the best

One of my favorite scenes …
Dig my grave with a silver spade.
Dig my grave wide and deep.
Dig my grave with a silver spade.
Bury me beneath the wet Earthry.
Place my grave on a snow white hill.
Cover me over with sod.
Tell them I died to save em all.
Tell my wife to marry again.😄
Too funny.
Truly one of the greatest scenes of the Andy Griffith Show.
🤣🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏👏never gets old
Poor ‘Ol Rafe. He never stood a chance against Andy.
give me some of that good ole horse paste instead...
Dr Andy Fauci lol!
Loved Mayberry's jail cells.
Seems like it'd be a nice little Airbnb to get arrested in Mayberry

Wanna give that 'sentence' another shot? Maybe buy some punctuation and a dikshunarie...
Ol Andy was an OG propagandist, huh? 😂
A ww1/prison song sung by the best
What are the chords for this song?
Download app called tabs, has tons of versions of songs chords and tabs
I’ve tried the Chordify app but couldn’t find it, but it goes
A Minor to D Minor to A Minor to E back to A Minor. (I think).
He might have some other kind of tuning going on to.
More applicable today than in the 1950s!
That is from the 60s.
I could see Andy talking to Rafe today about not wearing a mask
No, Andy wasn't a fear-mongering, leftist POS.
Why would you wear a mask when you are vaccinated.
@UC1yIRNuTLtCVZwKgrqR-pTQ because you could still spread it, dumbass.
@@patbrooks9823 He's talking Raif, an idiot, into getting the a shot that will save his life. Raif is smarter than you!!!!
@@toyman81 Dust particles.
Andy said get your damn shots.
Yay.
This relates so well today with the people who hate the COVID vaccine
It is mRNA gene therapy, and is in no way, shape or form a "vaccine". I hope you were wearing your Simpleton Sheeple Mask and Goober Gloves while you typed that brainwashing you managed to dribble out. Isn't it time for your 8th _booster shot?_
well, guess what it's been 2 years since you posted this comment & I never once got it & I'm still here. So, what does that tell ya?
This is like pre COVID propaganda for sticking yourself with whatever the govt wants you to take
Music for everyone to enjoy not like 2020 nothing but trash
Hear that anti-vaxxers? You can trust Andy!
This series is too intellectual for anti-vaxxers.
F big pharma, and hope you both made out your wills you are going to need it.
I wish Andy were here today to help us convince people to get their Covid vaccines. If not for yourself, then for your loved ones and country.
Brainwashed
He sure would have had a lot of songs to write and funerals to go to over Covid. I bet it would have blown his mind that people were refusing a free vaccination
It would be worth it to take the shot just to not hear Andy sing.
In the 50s, Elvis Presley was part of the campaign urging people to get the Polio vaccine.
Free atrial fibulation & blood clots...??
More vaccine propaganda!🤣🤣🤣
The first time I heard him sing this song I got goosebumps. The man can sing and act and is a democrat. Lord, rest his soul! ❤️🙏🏼
Not today's Democrat. Like my parents the Democratic party left them behind. After Jimmy Carter my parents went Reagan.
My Grandparents were also old school democrats. However, the modern Democratic Party of today is nothing like the party of the past. In short, it was taken over by the communists and the far left in the 60’s and 70’s.
My parents were Democrats too, but in the age of Harry Truman and John Kennedy which by today's standards would be considered Right wing nut jobs.
ANDY GRIFFITH WAS A DEMOCRAT TO THE END. HE MADE A COMMERCIAL WITH RON HOWARD ENDORSING OBAMA, FOXBOTS.
Pre dictive PROGRAMING.
This insane new art.
dumbb
Draws you in as if your there on the spot...great writing production...
Don't take it Rafe!
Yes, Rafe, be a douchebag like Gary!
Andy 2022, it would be a COVID-19 shot.
What’s the name of that song?
This is a few months late, but I think it was made up for the show. It's catchy. though.
Ode to Joe Rogan
coercion and lies... yep nothing ever changes.
Oh, you're one of those mentals... 🤣
And Griffith didn't know he would be looking into the future of 2021....pretty timely....

This episode should be the advertisement for the current Covid vaccine
I was thinking the same thing which led me to seek this out.
Get your Vaccines everyone.
