[edit] Overview
Warren is Mayberry barber Floyd Lawson's nephew. Warren hails from Boston, Massachusetts. He graduated tops in his police academy class but proves to be a bungler in Mayberry. Warren serves as deputy of Mayberry under Sheriff Andy Taylor, following the departure of the previous deputy Barney Fife, when actor Don Knotts left the series. Warren is just as impetuous in his role as deputy as his predecessor Barney and is equally just as bumbling. His most common trademark is his repeated questioning followed by a rapidfire succession of the phrase "Huh?" Warren is a bachelor and a somnabulist.
[edit] First appearance
Warren's first appearance occurs in "The Bazaar". He puts an end to Aunt Bee's bingo games at the Ladies' Bazaar.
