Totally agree, Archie Bunker was my first thought when I opened the thread. I think you could add Maude and George Jefferson to the list - hated Maudes politics but loved the back and forth with both.
Archie Bunker : [Maude refuses to get out of Archie's chair] Well, I got the secret weapon that can lay this little lady right away. Here we go. This country was ruined by Franklin Delano Roosevelt!
Cousin Maude : You're fat.
Archie Bunker : Sticks and stones may break my bones, but Franklin Delano Roosevelt...
Edith Bunker : Archie, you promised never to say that name again in front of Maude.
Archie Bunker : Franklin Delano Roosevelt!
Edith Bunker : [to Maude] He don't mean nothing. His whole family was for Roosevelt.
Archie Bunker : That was for two terms. But that was it. We didn't know the guy was going to hold on to the job like a pope!
