I have been reluctant to purchase season 6 because of not having Barney. I also really enjoy the black and white and feel like the color seasons lost most of the charm I enjoyed in the first 5 years. For those of you who have purchased season 6 or enjoy the color seasons could you please give me some good reasons why I would not be disappointed if I went ahead and added season 6 to my collection. I really would like an excuse to purchase it but I don't want to taint my view of the characters if the episodes are not done well. Season 5 in my opinion was already heading in the wrong direction with shows about Andy wanting to leave Mayberry and episodes depicting Andy showing a level of almost anger and exasperation with Barney that was not characteristic of his mild laid back personality. (Eg.. The case of the punch in the nose) They had Andy's character getting pretty upset with Barney not that it wasn't warranted but it was just a little disheartening for me. I prefer the episodes where Andy and Barney are good pals and working together. (Eg.. Barney Gets his Man) one of my favorites because Andy is kind to Barney through the whole episode even though he knows Barney is full of it.
