when did the first color television come out in the andy griffth show?
Season 6 of The Andy Griffith Show was the first season with colored episodes.Ask a certain portion of diehard Andy Griffith Show fans why the series' sixth season (1965-66) is less well-loved than others from its eight-year run, and the answer boils down to four words:  Warren Ferguson  and color episodes..layed by veteran comedian and writer Jack Burns, Warren was the replacement for Don Knotts' Barney Fife as Andy's Deputy, and lasted for just eleven of the season's 30 episodes before vanishing without a trace.
