No, but he did fill in for Andy from time to time.
No, Fred "Mr. Rogers" Rogers never appeared on the Andy Griffith Show.
Not unless Ernest T Bass was a 9 year boy or a few year older. Phil Collins was born in 1951. The Andy Griffith Show ran from 1960 to 1968.

No. The Dillards were only on "The Andy Griffith Show", while "The Beverly Hillbillies" had Flatt and Scruggs.
They did in the first episode of Mayberry RFD, a spin off of the Andy Griffith Show.
Smoking was rarely seen on the show and no reference was ever made as to what brand of cigarettes anyone smoked A: That is incorrect. Griffith was a spokesman for Chesterfields. In the old days, he used to pitch the product at the end of the show.
Neither iconic actor was ever honored with an Emmy Award. Griffith is most famous as Sheriff Andy Taylor on "The Andy Griffith Show." He was never nominated as the pillar of Mayberry. But co-star Don Knotts, who played Andy's jittery deputy Barney Fife, won five supporting actor Emmys for that role. Griffith received a lone Emmy nomination in 1981 for his dramatic portrayal in the NBC miniseries "Murder In Texas." Hagman received two Emmy nominations as best actor in a drama series for his portrayal of J.R. Ewing on "Dallas." But he didn't win and received no other nominations during his long TV career. The late Barbara Bel Geddes, who played J.R.'s mother, "Miss Ellie," on the original "Dallas," was the only actor from that longrunning series to ever receive an acting Emmy. She won in 1980.
