Sharon,

It should also be noted that the breakthrough roles that you mention came in the latter half of the decade. In 1960 when Andy Griffith debuted (originally as a spin-off from the Danny Thomas show). Griffith left the series in 1968, just as those breakthrough roles were changing television. It would have been interesting to see what Griffith would have done with the series if he stayed.

Lepus,

We talking Mayberry, not Fargo! What were you expecting from 1960's TV????? Sounds like your TV changer needs to be repaired if you are forced to watch Andy Griffith to the point where you become nauseous! Good luck!! :)
