The Andy Griffith Show

The Bazaar - S6-E5

Continuity mistake: After Goober complains to Andy about Warren it cuts to Warren walking down the street, and when he moves the bucket of corn in front of the grocery store, the window display and the taped signs change/vanish between shots. (00:02:05)

The Bazaar - S6-E5

Continuity mistake: When Andy looks out the courthouse window and sees Goober's pickup truck filled with the ladies auxiliary group, Andy rushes out the front door and there's a wall right behind him where there shouldn't be, and although there's a bulletin board on the wall it still differs from the real one, plus the wall's air vent and wall trim are missing.

Opie's Group - S8-E9

Andy: Clara, sometimes a parent can't see what he should do, and sometimes it takes a person from the outside to show him. And I'd like to thank you.
Clara: Groovy.

The Darling Baby - S5-E12

Question: Why is it when they were on the show the Darling sons never spoke? Would they be paid more if they did, or was this some sort of joke?

Rob245

Answer: It was a joke. They were supposed to be dumb hillbillies.

Both. According to later interviews with both Andy and the Dillards band (the real name of the band that played the parts of the Darling children, of which Charlene (Maggie Peterson - Mancuso was also a member) the reason the Darling boys never had any lines was because they would've had to have been paid if they spoke. In return for appearing without lines or pay, Andy promised to get as much of their music onto the show as possible which, he did. This obviously gave them a lot of exposure.
