Another bit of Mayberry trivia: Which actor was a royal PITA on the set and couldn't stand Andy and the gang?

Spoiler:
Frances Bavier who played Aunt Bee. She refused to do the TV reunion movie and was really ugly to Andy and Ron Howard when they went to visit her during an illness.
Aunt Bee - I knew that about her. Such a shame, because I liked the character. She did a Lone Ranger episode playing the part of the leader of a blood-thirsty gang. Man, was she vicious in that role.

Quote:
Bavier was easily offended on the set of The Andy Griffith Show and the production staff took a cautious approach when communicating with her. Series star Andy Griffith once admitted the two sometimes clashed during the series' run. In an April 24, 1998, appearance on Larry King Live, Griffith said Bavier phoned him four months before she died and apologized for being "difficult" during the series' run.
