As a super fan of the show, I would be upset if I got any trivia question wrong. You got 25 out of 25

LOVE THE SHOW SO MUCH I HAD TO BUY THE BOX SET. HOPE METV DOESNT EVER TAKE THE MOST BELOVED AMERICAN SHOW EVER ON TV. SO MUCH CAN BE LEARNED FROM THE SHOW, MORALS AND VALUES. NONE CAN MATCH THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW...MAJOR LIFETIME FAN.

Lola, you're absolutely right about that lodge question. It's incorrectly written any way you look at it. To my knowledge, it was never stated (in either the black-and-white or color episodes) that Andy and Barney actually joined any lodge together...including The Esquire Club; and the Esquire Club was definitely not in Mayberry. Bad question. When I read that one, I thought, "What a DUMB trick!" (I noticed on Google that there's a book about Freemasonry that states that Andy and Barney were members of the Golden Door. Maybe that's where that falsehood got started.)
