I didn't see it here this last time, but supposedly someone at Viacom didn't 
keep up with the paperwork and the calendar, and the copyrights expired on a 
number of episodes before anyone caught it.  This affected some of the 1962-63 
episodes of "The Andy Griffith Show" as well as a few episodes of "Petticoat 
Junction," "The Beverly Hillbillies" and "The Dick Van Dyke Show."
