Funniest characters ever on TV

[Sem]

Agree on Rev. Jim and Louie DePalma, Norm and Cliff, Bob Newhart, Cosmo and George. The cast from Carol Burnett. A few cast members from SNL, particularly Bill Murray and Phil Hartman. I

I would be remiss to forget to leave out Jason Alexander (aka George Costanza) who was so funny that he type cast himself forever as Costanza (whose HS coach used to call him "Can't Stand Ya"). And Jerry Stiller who played his father Frank Costanza was also hilarious 

Seinfeld was an incredible success as one of (if not thee) best sitcoms in history...and it NEVER would have been so incredible without the incredible actor playing "George" as the dimwitted friend. The others were good, even great as they played off him, but George made the show the success it was

Like Seinfeld, "Two and a Half Men" was an incredibly successful sitcom with a unbelievable supporting cast from Berta the Maid, Rose the Stalker, Evelyn the Bawdy Mother, Russell the drug-using pharmacist, Charlies sarcastic therapist Dr. Linda Freeman, to the dim-witted Kandi who suddenly got very smart once she married Alan and he won a half million dollars. My vote though, goes to the dim-witted brother Alan played by Jon Cryer. Though Charlie gets most of the kudos along with the kid, I think Alan's role put the finishing touches on the show and deserved an Emmy for "Best Supporting Cast"...which could also go to Berta or any of the others

I must add the dim-witted knockout Kandi to the list of best supporting cast in Two and a Half Men

It is funny in that the Sopranos did have some very amusing moments especially once you got to know the characters. The episode when Christoper and Pauli were stuck out in the woods, after that Russian dude. ON the surface, it wasn't much to be amused, but knowing Chris and Paulie and the way they interacted, freezing wt al, it was hilarious. Especially when Bobby, dressed in full outdoor hunting gear is sent to rescue them.
I would say a lot of very dark humor.
