:D
I loved that show .... "... and they used Bon Ami, too !!". :D

However, I will always remember Don Knotts as Deputy Barney Fife of Mayberry, NC with the one bullet in his shirt pocket. :rofl:

Sleep well, Mr. Furley. Jack is still gay. Dennis:beer:

:cry: He was a great actor!

[bigslim]

He was also the voice for "Incredible Mr. Limpett". Another great loss.

RIP Barney...and thanks for the laughs while growing up

Oh man. A little piece of my childhood just disappeared.

My evening after-dinner TV as a young tot: Andy Griffith, Hollywood Squares and Bewitched.

[STLR FN]

TV will never be the same. RIP Don

How sad:( He was in so many of my childhood favorite films.

Guess a lot of you folks missed him on the Steve Allen show's "Man in the Street" interviews.

He played a real nervous person being interviewed, while Louis Nye played the suave "Gordon Hathaway". Tom Poston played a kind of "not all with it" person, while Bill Dana played "Jose Jimenez", or something similar.

Classic.

What the..?! How many more cast members from Three's Company have to die before we put a stop to Death?!?!?

Don Knotts's voice will live on through comedian Craig Shoemaker. His Barnie Fife impressions are spot on.

"Got your bullet, Barney?"

I remember that. Don would be shaking and stuttering with his arms crossed and Stevarino would ask him what he did for a living and Don said, "I'm m m a a a ddddentist!"

Another good man gone. I just don't see them being replaced by anyone even close to the talent and humility/integrity. Or am I wrong?

PR :burnout:

"Got your bullet, Barney?"

"Is that a bullet in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?"

[duhtroll]

Anyone remember him in the comic strip "Bloom County?"

It was back when Hasslehoff, Bruce Willis, Patrick Swayze, Eddie Murphy and other actors were releasing records (we called them records back then). Bloom County did a spoof with "Deathtongue" about Don Knotts wanting to solo.

Also remember him from Disney kids' movies when I was younger.

How about "No Time For Sergeants" when he was giving Andy Griffith those tests putting those rings together and taking them apart? I still laugh thinking about it.
