“Well, I guess to sum it up you could say there's three reasons why there's so little crime in Mayberry. There's Andy. And there's me. And (pats holstered Colt .38) baby makes three.” -- Mayberry deputy sheriff Bernard Fife
I am – Hercules!!

The Andy Griffith Show is the best sitcom of the 1960s. It’s true Don Knotts left the franchise after season five – but he still won Emmys for guest appearances in the series’ final three seasons. There were also shotgun-toting hillbilly Briscoe Darling, rock-lobbing mountain man Ernest T. bass, the blonde Fun Girls (Skippy and Daphne) from neighboring Mt. Pilot and the self-incarcerating drunk Otis Campbell. The new set , which includes the episode of “The Danny Thomas Show” that introduced sheriff Andy Taylor as well as the 1986 TV-movie “Return to Mayberry,” sells for $152.99, which works out to only $19.12 per season or 62 cents per episode – a big reduction on the $225.49 being charged for previous, less-inclusive complete-series set.

Amazon’s prices as I type this: $21.99 The OC: The Complete First Season $21.99 The OC: The Complete Second Season $22.99 The OC: The Complete Third Season I don’t recall Amazon ever discounting those extra-crammed supersized (27 episode) first season adventures of Seth Cohen to below $50 before, let along to less than $22.
