Just remembering some of the great TV characters from years ago. Perhaps you have a few of your own favorites to add.
Sgt. Vince Carter
Arnold Ziffel
Barney Fife
Jethro Bodine
Gunther Toody
Grandpa Munster
Maynard G. Krebs
Eddie Haskell
Ted Baxter
Maxwell Smart
Third rock from the sun characters
Yeah, but he had Grandpa Munster. Al Lewis is as extreme a lefty as you can get. Dennis Kucinich would look at him and say, “Whoa!”
LTC Henry Blake!
First crush!
Flip Wilson (AKA Geraldine)
Ruth Buzzie
Carol Burnett
Marcia and Jan Brady.
“Son, you seem to stop whatever you’re doing to watch The Brady Bunch.”
“I like the humor, Dad (and those legs).”
That robot was “B9”.
Lucas McCain
Jason McChord
Sgt. Chip Saunders
Joe Friday
...to name a few.
"Reverend" Jim Ignatowski: Yeah, I did some drugs, though probably not as many as you think. How many drugs do you think I did?
Elaine Nardo: A lot.
"Reverend" Jim Ignatowski: Wow! Right on the nose!
Yep. Loved that show. Started goingg thru the episodes on Netflix not too long ago. Amazing how much some of those shadow government subjects written into the show have become reality oveer the past decade.

Lt. Rip Masters was played by James Brown. My cast favorite was Joe Sawyer as Sgt, Biff O’Hara (the guy was in like a zillion movies) but I forget who played Cpl. Boone.
