...and Spock... and the whole cast of Barney Miller!

I'll see your Spock and raise with Data. I agree about Barney Miller. Although, I was always partial to Jack Soo's character.

Walter Bishop - Fringe

[Slings and Arrows]

Second Archie Bunker. O’Connor played him with a depth rare in television. (Or most other entertainment, these days.)

[saminfl]

John Russell, Peter Brown and Peggie Castle in Lawman. I loved that show.

[SES1066]

I wanna see Jack Webb grilling Maxine Waters about real financial hardship....

You could fill a stadium with that ticket. "Rumble in LA!"

[SC_Pete]

And Midnight the Cat.

That robot was “B9”.

Hmmm, I never knew he (it?) had a name.

Mr. Haney, from Green Acres. A friend described him as “Karl Marx’s worst nightmare”

Moses {Moe}, Jerome {Curly}, Samuel {Shemp} in real life the Howard Brothers, and Larry Fine {Larry} The Original Three Stooges before Curly's death.

[TADSLOS]

A very thoughtful and laid out article. I never put that much intellectual effort into the show, but as a conservative,what the author offers as a theme makes sense.

Second Archie Bunker. O’Connor played him with a depth rare in television. (Or most other entertainment, these days.)

Most funny episode was Edith's change of life. That was a classic.
