The funniest scene in the funniest television program was the moment in the old “Andy Griffith Show” when Gomer Pyle makes a citizen’s arrest of Barney Fife on the Main Street of Mayberry. And does the idea ever have staying power.

I wrote my own obituary not long ago, and when I showed it to a co-worker, she broke out in uncontrollable laughter.

For your consideration: The oddest couple in movie history.
