I believe folks were already realizing the hazards of smoking tobacco back
when Mayberry first appeared so the writers may have been trying to
discourage this in the scripts. I believe Andy was only pictured smoking a
couple times. Since virtually no one smokes these days, it's more noticeable
in old shows and films. And I remember non-smokers lighting my cigarettes as
a gentlemanly gesture way back then when I indulged too (decades ago).
