From the unofficial sitcom best friends file that already includes Richie & Fonzie, Kramden & Norton, Fred & Barney, Dennis & Joey, Felix & Oscar and Laverne & Shirley, who among the following best friends do you like more:

Howard Cunningham & Al Delveccio or Andy Taylor & Barney Fife?

But remember, this thread is only about these four, not anyone else. Please chime in!

I don't recall Howard and Al ever being "best friends." Also, wasn't Dennis' best friend Tommy?

Not originally on Dennis and Tommy being best friends on Dennis the Menace. Joey McDonald (Gil Smith) was his original playmate in the first few eps. of that classic TV show. And Howard and Al are brothers of the same Leopard Lodge, and they get along well.

Sure, they get along well, but they're not best friends.
