Andy and Helen like each other but Barney now disapproves of Helen after learning that she can't cook and wouldn't quit working if she got married. Guest star: Janet Waldo as Amanda. * Clara injured herself while lifting her oven. She was trying to clean up some spilled bacon grease. Aunt Bee says Clara is walking crooked. * Andy tries to read The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow to Opie. It's a favorite, and Opie refers to it as The Headless Horseman. * Prospective women for Andy include Lavinia, Amanda, Rosemary, and Blanche. * Andrew Jackson "Andy" Taylor (Andy Griffith) - Sheriff of the town of Mayberry. He is genial, good-natured and endears himself to the townsfolk with an heir of good will, polite charm and keeps the peace by using common sense. He refuses to wear a gun or formalize his uniform with a tie, the image of which he says makes him more approachable. Andy is a widower with a young son, Opie, and tries to raise his with good sense and good values. Also in his home is his paternal Aunt Bea who arrives in the home shortly after the previous housekeeper Rose, marries and moves away. Although a widower, Andy has a steady string of girlfriends, but his longest-lasting relationship is with Helen Crump, Opie's teacher, whom he eventually marries. * Opie Taylor (Ron Howard - as Ronny Howard) - Son of Andy Taylor. A good-hearted, normal little boy (about six when the series began), most of Opie's lessons come from his close relationship with his father, and his Great Aunt Bea. He isn't prone to get into trouble and that probably has to do with spending a great deal of time around the jail. At one point, Aunt Bea considers this to be a bad influence and when Opie runs away from home briefly, she reascends and allows him to visit the jail after school on a conditional basis. * Deputy Barney Fife (Don Knotts) - Deputy of the town of Mayberry. Thin, wirey and high-strung, Barney fancies himself an expert lawman even though - in reality - he is actually a bumbling goof. He considers his position to be essential to keeping Mayberry safe. Even though the town has very little crime, he dubs the town: "Mayberry, Gateway to Danger" Andy keeps Barney's crimefighting shenanigans to a reasonable level, but tries to never step on his ego. For safety reasons, he only allows Barney to carry one bullet, which he keeps in his shirt pocket until needed. Often, when the bullet is employed, Barney accidentally shoots the bullet into the floor. Like Andy, Barney has a steady stream of girlfriends, but his longest lasting relationship is with Thelma Lou. * Beatrice "Aunt Bea" Taylor (Frances Bavier) - Andy's paternal aunt. Bea is - apparently - a spinster somewhere in her mid-50s who spent most of her years raising kids (though it is never revealed whose kids she raised). She was alone in Virginia when Andy invited her to come to live with he and Opie when their housekeeper Rose got married and moved away. Bea is a motherly figure who takes the place of Opie's late mother and dotes over the boy, caring for his welfare and taking care of Andy as well. She is prominent in town, a respected lady who spends her time helping with social functions and church events. She is prone to spend time with her friends gossiping about the town's citizens. She is good-hearted but often prone to slicksters like traveling medicine man who sells her his elixer that turns out to be 85% alcohol. * Gomer Pyle (Jim Nabors) - * Goober Pyle (aka Goober Beasley in early episodes) - George Lindsey * Floyd Lawson - Howard McNear * Helen Crump - Aneta Corsaut * Thelma Lou - Betty Lynn * Howard Sprague, also insurance agent Ed Jenkins - Jack Dodson * Emmett Clark - Paul Hartman * Martha Clark - Mary Lansing - also played at least 4 other characters * Ellie Walker - Elinor Donahue (Andy's first season girlfriend) * Otis Campbell - Hal Smith * Ernest T. Bass(aka George the TV repair man) - Howard Morris * The Darlings * Briscoe Darling - Denver Pyle * Charlene Darling - Maggie Peterson * The Darling Boys - The Dillards * Clara Edwards (aka Clara Johnson, Bertha Johnson) - Hope Summers * Emma Watson (aka Emma Brand) - Cheerio Meredith * Ben Weaver - Will Wright/Tol Avery (miserly old landlord and department store owner) * Deputy Warren Ferguson - Jack Burns * Mayor Pike - Dick Elliott * Mayor Roy Stoner - Parley Baer * Leon - Clint Howard * Millie Swanson - Arlene Golonka * Rafe Hollister (local farmer and sometime moonshiner) - Jack Prince
