What I’m thinking at this stage is that I’ll do a Duos Poll of those folks who were billed that way. If somebody else would like polls on different groupings I’d appreciate someone else owning those projects.
I’ll give it another day or two in case the Duos concept needs expanding beyond what we already have.
Thanks for all the input, Gang! 
Duos:
Johnny Carson & Ed McMahon
Bob Newhart & a telephone
Using Wikipedia and Yahoo! Search I have broken the list into these categories so please provide some evidence to the contrary that those I haven’t labeled as DUOS belong in that category.
I’ll give this another two days (until Saturday) before posting a poll for DUOS.

==================================
Zeldar: I’d delete Vic and Sade (or move it to the Sitcom Cast or Radio Show Cast category, if you’re going to have one), and move The State and The Upright (not “Uptight”) Citizens Brigade to “More than 2,” since they were comedy teams even before they got their self-titled TV series.
Thanks! Will do.
I notice the Little Rascals, the Bowery Boys and Marx Brothers are not in.
And I was kidding about the Hudson Brothers.
Yeah, I must have left them off inadvertently, but since they’re not DUO acts, I was not as concerned for completeness as I could have been.
I do invite anyone to set up one or more poll(s) for the other categories that I’m not including.
A friendly reminder: last chance to add to the list of
Comedy Duos Past and Present
before the poll goes up Saturday, Jul/4
Lenny n Sqiggy
I may have missed the wire but ---------
Bob and Tom (radio show) – they do live stuff and some television in addition to their radio program
Have to consider Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner for the 2000 year old man among other things
There have been a few impressionists who would almost qualify as they worked with the addition of some voices provided by others in addition to themselves. Vaughn Meader for "The First Family and “The Second Coming” and David Frye come to mind as examples of that form of comedy team.
To the other poster who remembered Hudson & Landry ----- Happy Murphmas; it’s one of the reasons I moved to Pittsburgh across from the Alcoa Clock. Now pass me one of those Shetland Punies. 
The poll is up:
