Aunt Bee didn’t love Andy.
No surprise, considering Griffith’s nature to make jokes and Bavier’s fun-loving attitude, she didn’t like him very much. Once, in 1972, when Griffith and Ronnie Howard popped by to visit her, she turned them away. Then, in a flip-flop, in 1989 she told Griffith she regretted the distance between them. Go figure.
