That's tough. They both did. I liked when he slammed the door in Bentley's face more and The honky jokes with Tom were outrageous. I'll give the edgeto Willis.

I agree with Tom...I think George was a little less harsh on Bentely..

I would have to say Tom. He wouldn't even have to instigate George. There always seemed to be some joke related to him being white and married to a black woman, but lots of times something Tom said would be a set up for a comment from George along those lines.

Tom for all the honkey jokes

Tom inspired George to make fun of him without even saying anything.

Though he threw some remarks Florence's way for no reason, the main thrust of his jokes towards her were usually a retaliation, a defense, or a premptive strike.

Everyone else he usually gave a few zingers, but Tom was his number one target.

I for one always enjoyed when Tom entered the picture. I knew it was going to be good. George was mean with Tom so I vote for TOM........

That's correct. Florence always had a comeback to put George in his place, while Tom never did and often had a befuddled look on his face. George's mother always had something to say to Louise.
