View Full Version : TV characters with the best/worst jobs
Ireneparalegal 07-28-2008, 11:43 PM Best: Julie on THE LOVE BOAT. She had the opportunity to travel to Mexico, Alaska and Australia. She made it look like her job was just to make people smile and help them find their cabin. ;) :lol:
Worst: The waitresses on ALICE. Low wages, fighting with Mel, doing all kinds of things other than waitressing.
I know there is more.
catlover79 07-28-2008, 11:52 PM I can't think of a best job. :lol:
Worst job - the law "enforcement" of Hazzard County (Dukes of Hazzard). :eek: :o :rofl:
Ireneparalegal 07-28-2008, 11:55 PM You just LOVE them Duke boys dontcha??? ;) :lol:
catlover79 07-29-2008, 12:05 AM ^ YEEEEEEHAW!! I love the show, but actually my favorite character is Enos. He was such a sweetie, and was so in love with Daisy. :love: You gotta love all the car chases and General Lee jumps!!
repeatshistory 07-29-2008, 04:29 AM Best Job: Martin Lawrence on Martin
Dr. Johnny Fever and Venus Flytrap on WKRP.
DISC JOCKEYS of course! Trust me, I LOVE being a DJ.
Worst Job: Roc on Roc. He was a garbage man. A truly underappreciated career.
Schmoopie 07-29-2008, 05:10 AM Hmm... let's see....
Full House's Danny Tanner was a talk show host, while in the beginning, Jessie was an exterminator!:X)
Later, though... Jessie and Joey started working in advertising,which was pretty cool. Then toward the end, they became DJ's.
Rosanne-I wouldn't have wanted any of her jobs. She worked in a factory or something and then at a restaurant?
Monk-Natalie is Adrian Monk's assistant which sounds like a cool but challenging job!
Seinfeld-Elaine was the editor of a catalog (which would be very cool), George worked for the NY Yankees (although I'm not really sure what he did there!), and Jerry was a comedian!
Julie's job on Love Boat was very cool!
BTW this is a great topic!
tv star collector 07-29-2008, 08:11 AM Worst: Herman Munster (he worked in a mortuary)
Best: Gomez Addams (he was wealthy and didn't have to work at all)
Best: Jed Clampett (ditto)
Lodee 07-29-2008, 08:44 AM Ted Baxter had a pretty cool job. All he did was read a script of the news.
catlover79 07-29-2008, 11:35 AM Worst: Herman Munster (he worked in a mortuary)
Best: Gomez Addams (he was wealthy and didn't have to work at all)
Best: Jed Clampett (ditto)
I'll have to agree with you here. :lol:
sunshinefizzy 07-29-2008, 03:09 PM On Everybody loves Raymond, Ray gets to travel and gets paid good money for his job as a sportwriter.
Robert however is a cop and:
"I go to work, people shoot at me. Ray goes to work and people do the wave.":lol:
dawsongirl 07-29-2008, 08:54 PM Ed Norton had the worst job by far. I wouldn't have liked Ralph's either, but at least it didn't smell as bad.
Chocoholic 07-30-2008, 09:29 AM Homer Simpson and his fellow employees from the power plant. They work for Mr. Burns. Need I say more?
Also, the MASH gang had lousy jobs. They had to work in a freakin' war zone!
wkomorow 07-30-2008, 09:40 PM Best and worst job - Roc - sanitation engineer - but there were lots of perks.
dawsongirl 07-30-2008, 10:38 PM Also, the MASH gang had lousy jobs. They had to work in a freakin' war zone!
Ditto the gang on Hogan's Heroes.
Best - Maxwell Sheffield from the Nanny, he was rich & got to put on plays for a living
Worst - Jane Hathaway from the Beverly Hillbillies, she had to work for that terrible slave driver, Mr. Drysdale
dawsongirl 07-31-2008, 09:10 PM Best and Worst: Lucy Carter (Here's Lucy). Her boss was a penny-pinching jerk, but she seemed to be able to get out of doing any actual work most of the time. :lol:
