Who are your 10 favorite male TV sitcom characters of all time?

Al Bundy (Married With Children)

Niles Crane (Frasier)

Ted Baxter (Mary Tyler Moore Show)

Arthur Spooner (King of Queens)

George Costanza (Seinfeld)

Frank Barone (Everybody Loves Raymond)

Michael Scott - the office

Larry David - curb your enthusiasm

Al Bundy - married with Children

Jesus - Black Jesus

Steve Brule - Check it out w/Dr Steve Brule

Ali G - Da Ali G show

Tim Robinson - I think you should leave

Lookwell - Lookwell (only 1 episode, but still a great show)

Frank Gallagher - Shameless

Trevor Moore - the whitest kids u know

Maybe animals in the future? But, Mr. Ed and Eddie from Frasier are the only ones that come to mind.

Flipper. Lassie. Silver. Scout. Not in comedies, of course.

This is a sketch show.

My picks reflect my age.

EDDIE HASKELL
Barney Fife
Maynard G Krebs
Ed Norton
Bertram (When Things Were Rotten)

Several of these are sketch shows, not sitcoms.

I wouldn’t consider “Shameless” a sitcom, either.

mmm

Carlton the Doorman - MTM / Rhoda
Felix and Oscar - Odd Couple
Gob Bluth - Arrested Development
Buddy Sorrell - Dick Van Dyke Show
Neil and Rick - Young Ones
Red - 70s Show

Colonel Flagg - MASH

Please narrow your list down to 10.
