Now, almost 50 years later, the original 249 episodes still remain among the most frequently watched syndicated shows on television. On October 3, 1960, The Andy Griffith Show began its eight-year reign as one of the top-ten television shows in the country. In 1991, Neal Brower began to write a regular column called "Professor Brower's Class" in The Bullet, the newsletter for the show's fan club, The Andy Griffith Show Rerun Watchers Club. The Bullet, which was published three times a year, was distributed to approximately 15,000 members of the 1,000 worldwide chapters.
