Maybe it is just me or people I know, but I can't seem to recall Ken Berry being funny, even in other TV shows like F-Troop. I just don't see it. Whining yes, funny no.

No one can convince you that he's not unfunny..... TO YOU. It's obviously subjective. Obviously many people disagree with you and find him funny.

I don't like dill pickles, it would be like me saying, "Convince me that dill pickles taste good!" No one is ever gonna make me think they taste good to ME lol

Oh man, dill pickles are great. Just bite into one. The pickly goodness will convince you.

As for Ken Berry, he’s fine as I remember. Like with many actors, it depends on the material he’s given.

He was very funny in F-troop. Maybe not in Mayberry RFD but that was a gentle comedy show.

I never found him all that funny in Mama’s Family, but I had no problem with him.

I think that's the thing with Ken. He had a subdued comic style. It wasn't "in your face." However, as demonstrated many times on Mama's Family, he could also be very silly in his delivery.

Thank you! You explained it so much better than i could. I am going to back pedal and watch some clips and rethink my position.

lol I used to like them, but one night I dreamed I was eating them like crazy, they tasted really good in the dream, but when I woke up I was very sick and nauseated for some reason.... and the thought of them has nauseated me every since.... I think it's the DILL that causes it for some reason.
