9 Things You Missed in the Return to Mayberry Reunion Film

Return to Mayberry is a feature-length romantic comedy based on two of the most popular sitcoms of the 1960s: The Andy Griffith Show and Mayberry R.F.D. The film resurrected the simple folksy life of Mayberry, 18 years after The Andy Griffith Show went off the air on April 1, 1968. While the shows aired on CBS, the film Return to Mayberry was broadcast on NBC on April 13, 1986, with 16 of the original cast members, including Andy Griffith, Don Knotts, Ron Howard, Howard Morris, and Jim Nabobs and George Lindsey, reprising their roles. The film was directed by Bob Sweeney, who had directed 80 episodes of The Andy Griffith Show and it was written by Harvey Bullock and Everett Greenbaum who had actively written for the same show. The film became the most-watched film of 1986, getting enough ratings to claim a spot on the 'Top Ten Movies of All Time.' The film also revied Andy Griffith's career and served as the series finale of The Andy Griffith Show as no new episodes were created or released after the broadcasting of this reunion film.
