Barney Fife, Barney Rubble, or Beaufort T Justice ?
As I rode into the office this morning I was mildly amused by a JB&B parody of "The Honeymooners". I then sat at my desk, drinking coffee from my "Nip it in the bud" mug, and contemplated the caliber of Side Kicks offered by entertainment over the years.
This includes those characters who were either comic relief, supporting cast, or recurring cameos....
The short list that comes to mind, this early in the morning, is comprised of the following characters;
That whiny rich girl on Will and Grace.
Barney Fife of Mayberry
Burt and/or Ernie
The entire band in The Blues Brothers movie(s)
Gene Wilder in any role
TC of Magnum P I
Huggy Bear of Starsky and Hutch
Joe Pesci's character in the Lethal Weapon Series
Gabby on Gunsmoke ( or was that Roy Rogers ?)
Murdock of the A-team
Bosley of Charlie's Angels ( the series - not the movies)
That Cuban guy who always reappeared on Miami Vice
The big guy on "Everyone Loves Raymond"
The VERY well endowed girl who shares an office with Andy Dick on that office show with the Red head( ? )
Mini - Me
Ralph and/or Potsie of Happy Days
Radar or Klinger of MASH
The techie guy on Alias
Now I'm thinking too hard, attempting to remember all of those supporting characters of note, who out there knows of anyone who deserves recognition or recall worthy of this post ??
