16. Juanita Beasley from The Andy Griffith Show

Producer Aaron Ruben created a character for The Andy Griffith Show who was referenced but never shown on screen. Juanita Beasley was a waitress at the Bluebird Diner that the character Barney Fife had a crush on. Here’s a quote from the book The Andy Griffith Show: “They reminded Andy Griffith of the old radio show Vic and Sade: ‘They originally had only three characters — later four — but they talked about their town and other towns nearby, and you never met any of those people. But their talk made you believe they were there.'”
