What daytime rerun title did CBS use for the show in 1964?

CBS used the daytime rerun title Andy of Mayberry in 1964. The alternate name distinguished the daytime repeats from new episodes of The Andy Griffith Show still airing in prime time.

CBS added the reruns to its daytime schedule in October 1964. The title highlighted the fictional community at the center of the sitcom while helping viewers separate the repeat package from the continuing first-run series.

The arrangement lasted until September 1970. After that, the show entered wider syndication under its original title, The Andy Griffith Show. The daytime branding therefore belonged to a specific CBS rerun window rather than representing a new series or a permanent retitle.

Several of the other options can sound plausible because they draw on familiar Mayberry references. Return to Mayberry was the title of a 1986 reunion television film, while Mayberry Days is an annual festival. Neither was CBS’s 1964 daytime rerun title.
