Bernard "Barney" P. Milton Oliver Fife〔In ("A Plaque for Mayberry" ) episode, Andy states that Barney's middle name is Oliver. In later episodes Barney refers to himself as Barney "P." Fife and in the episode (''Class Reunion'' ) the Mayberry Union High yearbook lists Barney's name as Bernard Milton Fife.〕 is a fictional character in the American television program ''The Andy Griffith Show'', portrayed by comic actor Don Knotts. Barney Fife is a deputy sheriff in the slow paced, sleepy southern community of Mayberry, North Carolina. He appeared in the first five black and white seasons (1960 – 1965) as a main character, and, after leaving the show at the end of season five, made a few guest appearances in the following three color seasons (1965 – 1968). He also appeared in the first episode of the spin-off series ''Mayberry R.F.D.'' (1968 – 1971), and in the 1986 reunion telemovie ''Return to Mayberry''. Additionally, Barney appeared in the ''Joey Bishop Show'' episode, "Joey's Hideaway Cabin" and the first episode of ''The New Andy Griffith Show''. In 1999 ''TV Guide'' ranked him Ninth on its 50 Greatest TV Characters of All Time list. ==Production history== Don Knotts had previously co-starred on "The Steve Allen Show", along with Tom Poston, Pat Harrington, Jr., and Louis Nye—which is where a frantic, twitching "man on the street" character was introduced. He created Deputy Barney Fife in the same fashion, as a hyperkinetic but comically inept counterpart to Mayberry's practical and composed Sheriff Andy Taylor. Barney Fife appeared on ''The Andy Griffith Show'' from the show's beginning in 1960 until 1965, when Knotts left the show to pursue a career in feature films. It is explained that Barney Fife had left Mayberry to take a job as a detective in Raleigh. Knotts reprised the character in guest appearances each season until ''The Andy Griffith Show'' left the air in 1968. Barney also appeared in the inaugural ''Mayberry R.F.D.'' episode, in which Andy and Helen Crump marry. Nearly two decades would pass before the character was again reprised in the reunion film ''Return to Mayberry'' in 1986, by which time Fife had moved back and become the town's acting sheriff. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Barney Fife」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
