Definetly one of the funniest men ever and one of my favorites. Very sad news but at least he died old and rich. R.I.P. Don.

I wonder if he'll be buried with his single "Barney Fife" bullet in his pocket?

Barney: "Now the minute it looks like there's gonna be trouble, we got to nip it! Nip it in the bud! You got that? Let's hear it!"

Floyd and others: "Nip it in the bud!"

My favorite movie of his was the Ghost and Mr Chicken.....

 

[AlexStomp]

As a kid, I was a fan of both Three's Company and The Andy Griffith though. It was just something that was always on after school or after baseball practice.

I'm glad his legacy still plays on nick at nite.

funny dude for sure.

Mr. Furley was ten times funnier than the Ropers. Don was also great in Pleasantville and Chicken Little.

Another great comedian/actor that will be missed. And he was in Chickel Little? I didnt know that. I do rememeber him being on the cartoon Scooby Doo though.

He was good in Pleasantville, or EdTV? I cán't remember which. I also liked Wakko's (Animaniacs) Don Knotts fetish. RIP

 

[jrw01-half]

it was Pleasantville, Drokk.
very sad indeed; a funny, funny man.

I don't know Norman Fell was a pretty funny guy also.
Don Knott's will always be Barney Fife, even if they decide to make a shitty movie version of Mayberry someday.

I was trying to remember the name of that movie today. A bunch of us were talking about Don Knotts and I couldn't remember. Thanks Tomass74. that was one of my favorites when I was little. He was such a good natured guy, and even though Mr. and Mrs. Roper were hilarious too, he had the perfect personality for Mr. Furley. And Barney and all the others he played. God, that sucks. I'm gonna miss him. Don Knotts was truly one of a kind.
