dunno if you're familiar with the show Popular, but Mary Cherry fits that catagory. She is psycho, and that is what rocks about her

A certain quartet on a show about nothing expressed some sociopathic tendencies...

Well, maybe Archie, but I never really thought of Fred having a conscience. He thinks twice about doing things after Lamont tells him to. If it wasn't for Lamont Fred would be in deep trouble with the police! :p

Fred has definite ideas .Especially about
Puerto Ricans, ie; Julio.:lol: But Julio always stood up to him with dignity and grace!

Fred rocks! He is hilarious in his own narrow-minded way! I love that guy!:lol:
Just like Archie! Love them both!:lol:

I like the J.R Ewing pick. Most of the others are just grumpy and bigoted, but don't seem sociopathic.

How about Faith? During the 98-99 season, the show's best, Faith turned into a sociopath.

I'd say JR Ewing and disagree with those who mentioned Archie Bunker and his one time neighbour George Jefferson.

I agree, I would never have thought of George and Archie as sociopaths
