This show is much like the later color episodes of TAGS, many people don't care for them at all. Personally, I still enjoyed the color episodes of TAGS as well as its follow up, Mayberry RFD. If you've never seen it and enjoy The Andy Griffith Show, give it a try. If nothing else, the first episode is worth watching as it's pretty much a series finale for The Andy Griffith Show. Andy and Helen get married, and Don Knotts appears as Barney Fife for the last time until Return to Mayberry. Andy still appears as Sheriff Taylor a few times in the first season before disappearing. He returns once in season 2 where it's revealed he no longer lives in Mayberry and has a new baby. Aunt Bea stays around for a couple seasons as Sam's housekeeper before she leaves as well. Howard, Emmett, Millie, and Goober stay on as regulars throughout the show's 3 year run.
The show has a lot of the same flaws as the later TAGS episodes, and can at times seem a little stale. That being said, I still enjoy it as any trips back to Mayberry are good ones as far as I'm concerned.
