I liked them all, but I think I'll have to go with Mr. Carlin. I loved his deadpan put-downs about himself and others, and plus Jack Riley is from the Cleveland area, as I am.

Close second is the wimpy Mr. Petersen, played by John Fiedler. Does anyone remember his utterly charming guest spot on Bewitched as "Fergus the Frog"??

I haven't seen all the episodes, but was it ever explained why the sweet Mrs. Bakerman was in the group? She seemed to be the most normal, self-assured one of them all! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Mr Petersons

After Mr. Carlin, I think Edgar T. Vickers was my favorite. He was such a cranky old guy - he always cracked me up. :lol:

I'd pick Mr. Carlin. Something about him made you really believe he needed to see Dr. Hartley.

ill go with your first 2 choices in the same order Cat :)

:lol: That is SO true!

He was in EVERY one of Bob's groups. He was even in the Out of Work Workshop (even though he had a job) and the Over 60 group (even though he wasn't 60 or over). He justified it by saying he had trouble relating to people of all ages and walks of life. :rofl:

They were all good. However, I think Mr. Carlin was the best.

A close second would be former Marine, Mr. Peterson. I love his quote, "Blow it out your duffel bag". :lol:

Mr. Herd.

Mr. Herd.
Mr. Herd the nerd - the worst door to door salesman you'll ever see. I love how the only one who ever bought from him was Bob. :lol:

For me, it's a close run between Mr. Carlin and Mr. Petersen for the favorite man in the regular groups. I also loved the lady (whose name escapes me at the moment), the one who's a cashier in a grocery store. "How nice!"

That would be Mrs. Lillian Bakerman (Florida Friebus), who would knit and say, "Isn't that nice?" :lol:

Thanks, that's the one. I hadn't had my first cup of coffee yet, when I posted that! Mrs. Bakerman ALWAYS cracks me up!
