No, it's not just you...Andy's character did change drastically. I don't care for it at all. He's not the same loving, teasing person that he was at the beginning, when the show had just started. I think having Helen be his girlfriend was a terrible mistake. Most of the time she's just going against what he says, and telling him what he should be doing. She's not a good picture of a submissive woman at all, in my opinion. My family & I can't stand episodes with her in them. She just bickers with Andy constantly. I loved the time when "Miss Ellie" was still around. She had spunk, but wasn't a bossy rag. =)
And another thing...having Barney leave the show was really dumb. He was the life of the program! And he brought out Andy's good/funny side.
Anyway, to whom it may concern: I LOVE the old black & white seasons...as for the rest, they're all just a waste of time.

Is it just me, or did Andy's character just seem awful angry in this season? The transfer from B&W to color really doesn't put me off much, but the departure of Barney sure does. This season marked a change in Mayberry, and it is a change I don't appreciate much. I won't be purchasing the last two seasons, the show lost a great deal of charm for me in the last three seasons. However, they are still better than anything on the Tele' today. Boo Reality Television!

The series plummeted after season five, where it should've ended. Even Sheriff Taylor's overall demeaner changed to "irritable Sheriff Taylor". The colorization of the series did more harm than good. It just didn't have the home-town feel to it anymore.

The show should have ended at Season 5. From there on out the show goes down hill and it's not just because of Barney. Barneys departure crushed the show, but also Gomers departure hurt, and the change of charchters. The show also becomes alot more dry and it's not funny at all. The first 5 seasons are remarkable, but after that the the show becomes pathetic.

It's hard to accept change and TAGS had plenty of them by season 6! First off Barney was not a regular, second Opie got older and was not the cute little kid anymore, third Warren had some pretty big shoes to fill so he didn't last long and losing Gomer the few years before this season didn't help either. I still liked the show but, it never had the same magic. One of the biggest changes no one mentions is Andy. In the early years he was very easy going and happy, always ready to poke a little fun at Barney. In the later years he became.....well sort of mean!? It seems his new role in the show was to scold Aunt Bee(for buying too much beef etc.) or yell at Floyd,Goober and Opie. Anyway,it's still worth my money and if your a fan, yours as well. Nice transfer round out this great DVD set.
