Paramount Home Video has finally released The Andy Griffith Show on DVD. Beautiful prints. Remastered picture and sound. But did you know that some of the episodes in the series are not complete?!

Apparently, Paramount goofed up a little and released episodes with the following flaws...

The original Andy Griffith Show pilot episode featured on the Danny Thomas series, "Make Room For Daddy" is a syndicated version and has been shortened by approximately 2 and a half minutes.

In Season 3, the epilogue is missing from "Barney Mends A Broken Heart" and in "The Darlings Are Coming", almost 3 minutes have been edited out, including the epilogue and even one of the Darling family's musical performances (Salty Dog).

Up for sale is a supplemental DVD that contains these episodes in their complete and unedited form, PLUS...

- Four sponsor spots not included on the Paramount discs

- The 2003 CBS reunion show, "Back To Mayberry"

The DVD also contains a navigational menu (as shown above) and chapter stops.

This is not an official disc. It was created from long out-of-print VHS tapes to fill in the discrepancies left by the officially released DVDs and complete your The Andy Griffith Show collection.

Please ask any and all questions before you buy so you know exactly what you're getting.

The disc will be shipped in a clear slim double DVD case. You can remove the paper insert from a DVD case in any season set that only holds one disc and place that insert and the DVD in the double case with the supplemental DVD and store it back in the season box.

Price includes First Class Mail shipping within the USA.

PayPal preferred for fastest delivery. Credit cards accepted through PayPal only.

_{**On a side note... In the individually released official Season 4 DVD set (not the new set released 5/29/07), there are four episodes on discs 1 and 2 that do not have laugh tracks. This was also a mistake made by Paramount, but they have opted to replace these particular discs with corrected ones.
