Don Knotts, the saucer-eyed, scarecrow-thin comic actor best known for his roles as the high-strung small-town deputy Barney Fife on the 1960s CBS series "The Andy Griffith Show" and the leisure-suit-clad landlord Ralph Furley on ABC's '70s sitcom "Three's Company," has died. He was 81.

Who could forget Barney and Gomer in the haunted house, in search of Opie's baseball.
In the cobwebbed darkness, the pair hears a ghostly moan.
The exchange is short, but unforgettable.
Barney (with jumpy excitement): "What was that?
Gomer: "I don't know, but it don't sound like no baseball."
