Aunt Bee's Invisible Beau

We close out season five with an episode where Jerry Van Dyke auditions to replace Don Knotts.

We enter the post-Don Knotts era with a clever episode that makes us ponder what would happen if Barney were here.

We say goodbye to Don Knotts as a TAGS regular as Aaron and Chris try to make sense of how television icons left shows in 1965.

Don Rickles guest stars as a memorable character who has bad luck and Aaron and Chris discuss the fly scene and what would happen if The Andy Griffith Show ever had a "very special episode".

The Fun Girls are back for the last time and Aaron and Chris bid them farewell.

Clara starts meddling and Aunt Bee tells a little white lie in an episode that is well-done, but cringe-worthy.

Opie and Howie start a newspaper and then try a new approach to sell copies that has Andy, Barney, and Aunt Bee scrambling all over town.

Barney decides to pursue an assault charge from the 1940s that nearly divides the town and Aaron gives a recap that sounds like a tongue-twister.

While Barney is away, Andy's cousin by marriage comes to visit and things get a bit awkward with Helen.

A television writer comes to Mayberry saying he wants to do a show on Andy, but things are not right. Aaron and Chris discuss if there ever was an old redeye flight from LAX to Raleigh and if $10 bill are the main cash currency at the Mayberry Bank.
