SimpsonsFan · 05-19-2005, 08:46 AM

Hi I'm new to this board, I was wondering which one do you like better?

TripperFan · 05-19-2005, 08:53 AM

Sorry- I can't pick one over the other - I loved both equally - they complimented each other perfectly.

Belair · 05-19-2005, 11:09 PM

I agree.They were both good.Although Niles was funnier.

Rhiannon · 06-01-2005, 02:34 PM

Niles

TripperFan · 06-01-2005, 02:38 PM

Yeah, when Niles would toss those zingers at C.C. I just loved him!! I wish he was on another show now - even in a similar role - he was just perfect!

I missed him not being there on the reunion show too - I was really looking forward to seeing him.

I also like Niles alot, but I didn't know there was a reunion show, when was that?

It was on Lifetime around January (I think). It was at Fran's real home and they all showed up except for Niles (I think they said he was on Broadway or something and couldn't make it).

Fran made dinner for them and they sat around reminising about the show and playing clips from it. It was nice seeing them again - of course the kids are all grown now and Charles hasn't changed at all really.

I had to laugh when Charles told the story of how is own children would be upset about him kissing Fran on the show - it looked so real (that they had feelings for each other).

Fran, she made the show really funny. I didn't watch that many episodes but Niles seemed like a side character.

Zions Mother · 07-27-2005, 12:28 AM

I love Fran, but Niles was the man. His humor and is character were priceless.

Fran's mother and grandmother were a riot also.

I'm watching the reruns now.

blair · 07-30-2005, 10:48 AM

I love Niles. He's just so funny.

I can't choose between Niles and Fran because their characters are so different, and I enjoy watching them both equally.

papasmurf2000 · 07-30-2005, 09:58 PM

i love em both

sitcomfan89 · 08-27-2005, 03:49 PM

I like both of them equally, but I chose Fran just because she was originally the main character.

angel676 · 09-18-2005, 04:45 PM

I love both of them, it's so hard to choose just one, but I chose Niles. He was a blast. Both he and Fran had the best lines.
