Few people can tell a story like Sheriff Andy Taylor. His rendition of The American Revolution has Opie, his friends, and especially his deputy, Barney, on the edge of their seats.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Andy speaks in the conversational language of the South and in terms that even young Opie and his friends can understand. Andy is excited and expressive as he talks, gesturing and making sound effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis country was a part of England,\u201d Sheriff Taylor begins, \u201cand we wasn\u2019t gettin\u2019 along with \u2018em too good.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides Andy\u2019s captivating storytelling, perhaps the most entertaining part of this scene is Deputy Barney Fife\u2019s reaction as history unfolds. Barney\u2019s expression is priceless; it\u2019s almost as if this is the first time he is hearing the story, even though he\u2019s previously boasted that history was his best subject in school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe British is coming!\u201d Andy recounts, as the story intensifies and he describes Paul Revere as a \u201cgood \u2018ole guy\u201d riding his horse. Andy goes on to explain \u201cthe shot heard \u2018round the world,\u201d and his Deputy gasps in surprise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This classic scene is such a feel-good moment in the show that reminds us of a nostalgic time when we learned history from our parents\u2019 and grandparents\u2019 stories. That\u2019s some of the best education kids can ever receive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
