Short-Tempered Griffith

Despite being the playful person a lot of people mostly had seen, there was still this scary side of Andy Griffith wherein he could not handle his anger anymore so he would just explode. This happened once in the middle of the set of the show. He was so stressed about filming that he punched a wall during the set. Such a gesture left his hand injured as he broke a wall – if you’re not convinced, a proof of this could be seen in the photo attached to this topic.

Knotts’ Presence Almost Lasted For Only A Day

The presence I am talking about here was his role in The Andy Griffith Show. Yes, it was already planned that he would be there for the first episode, but he filmed it without any contract. In the entertainment industry, contracts should always be present. That happening could have led to Don being only in the first episode. Well, thanks to the producers of the show, they immediately worked on the actor’s contract as soon as they saw how talented and skillful of an actor he was.
