Mayberry R.F.D. (CBS 1968-1971, Ken Berry, George Lindsay)

Sitcom. The stories of a small town council. Most of the action centered around widower farmer Sam Jones (who like Andy also had a young son). This was basically a continuation of The Andy Griffith show after Andy departed. R.F.D. stands for “Rural Free Delivery”, a quaint postal depiction of the rural Mayberry community.
