Mr. Roper acted more as a landlord and Mr. Furley acted more like a father to jack and the girls. Anyone Agree?

Mr. Roper would also bark at the kids for the rent money or get angry with them if he hears any noise upstairs! :lol: Mr. Furley was really like their dad or uncle & would actually hang out with them as real Friends! Also you just gotta love Jack calling Furley: RF!:D

I Agree! I think he liked the kids but didn't like to show his feelings! That's why I like Furley the Best because he was a real Softie & soo Sweet!!!:D

Mr. Furley was funnier than Mr. Roper I think.

I don't know. There were times when Mr. Furley demanded rent money and there was an episode where he tried to throw the kids out of the apartment because of the noise, but as somebody here mentioned before, that was only when he first came on the show. He softened up in the later episodes.

Furley might have been funnier than Mr. Roper, but not the Ropers together. I think both worked pretty good. Don Knotts was a great choice.

Furley couldn't shine Roper's shoes. There are enough "father figures" and cheap sentiment on sitcoms...I want laughs!
