Mayberry was one of the few prime time TV shows that displayed true
family values borne from a simpler yet much richer time in our recent
history. What made it fun to watch, was that it was never preachy.

Today's TV laden with insipid story lines, schadenfreude, deceit and
questionable morals ( even for our modern age ) is a sad and pathetic
roll model for young people just developing a moral compass for their
tough journey through life ahead. Not to mention being forced to grow
up and lose their innocence way too quickly.

Andy Griffith is one of a handfull of TV personalities that was able to
do good, and leave a lasting positive footnote in TV history.

RIP Andy Griffith

That was all ruined when he did a political ad for a candiate in 2008, trying
to capitalize on the "Andy of Mayberry" character.

It was fun to watch before the ad, now it is just politics.

Sad.

I'm quite certain even Moe would agree that with the passing of Andy
Griffith Americana (that which was and used to be) and not his song has
pretty much exited. Seems ol' Moe's hits stopped in the late 80's. Hasn't
been charted or heard much since. Maybe his Americana is running short as
well.
