The Andy Griffith Show had a lot of exterior scenes along with interior scenes, and much of the city was involved. Both shows have catchy theme songs. I Love Lucy evolved around social life, family and work in the city, while The Andy Griffith Show evolved around law, family and work in small towns. I Love Lucy incorporated a middle-class style of dress. In some scenes, Lucy wore very fashionable day and night clothes. The clothing on the Andy Griffith Show was what you would expect from that era when most women stayed home and the biggest extracurricular social activity was attending the town or state fair. The Andy Griffith Show was filmed as a TV drama using a single camera, while I Love Lucy used three cameras. “The single-camera telefilm allowed for greater creative flexibility and control, with the guarantee of a high-quality artifact to be used for multiple time zones and Hollywood cinema-inspired reruns.” (Mittell
