THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW
MeTV, 8:30 p.m. ET
In one of my recent YouTube recommendations, I talked about the value of TV “comfort food” – and The Andy Griffith Show is a perfect example. And binge-watching isn’t necessary: You don’t need to relocate to Mayberry, just drop in and visit from time to time. And tonight’s 8:30 p.m. ET episode on MeTV is a good time to visit: The 1960 episode, “Bailey’s Bad Boy,” stars Bill Bixby as a wealthy out-of-town teenager jailed by Sheriff Andy after a hit-and-run on the streets of Mayberry. Bixby was 26 years old at the time, and only nine years from starring as a single parent in TV’s The Courtship of Eddie’s Father, but go with it.
