This is a hard one for me. I'm going to wait to vote and see if any of you can sway me with your arguments.

 

If you think of anyone I've omitted, let me know and I'll add him/her.

Jeannie for me, hands down.  Great character and I think Barbara Eden in her prime was one of the most beautiful women in the world.

Chevy...I don't know how long you want to make your list. Here are a few you may or may not want to add:   'Benson' ('Soap' & 'Benson') 'Bub' (pre-'Uncle Charlie' - 'My Three Sons')

  He's not among your choices and I probably could not afford him even if I had a mansion but Alfred (Alan Napier) from Batman.  I don't think that I have ever seen an episode of Hazel as much as it was talked about when I was a kid.  If Aunt Bea can be a choice then so should Alice from the Brady Bunch who I would seriously consider.

I thought I had Alice in there already. I added her and Alfred. Thanks for the suggestions.

'Geoffrey' ('The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air')

'Niles' ('The Nanny')

'Mr. Lynn Belvedere' ('Mr. Belvedere')

 

I'm going off the board and voting for 'Jeannie' ('I Dream of Jeannie'). She was a genie, served Tony Nelson, and even called him 'Master' in early seasons of the show. Plus, Barbara Eden. ❤️

I added them all (Made Uncle Charlie and Bub a combo) plus added the beautiful Daphne Moon.

Thanks!

Definitely Jeannie. Some real dogs for shows on this list, especially Family Affair and Hazel, zero laughs.... and Uncle Charlie was a dick.

Good one! She was beautiful & a great character in the show.

 

Never understood Larry Hagman's character though -- she was always offering to do whatever he commanded, but he never mentioned what was on the mind of every guy watching the show.

  Coincidence that I read something most interesting and previously unknown to me until today about actor Ted Cassidy.  Early in his career he was a DJ on a Dallas radio station and was on the air the day JFK was assassinated.
