Only because I have seen more episodes of The Cosby show, I will say Clair Huxtable.

So straight characters can't be funny?

So you said Florida was stuck up and wasn't supposed to be because she lived in the Ghetto. So Florida couldn't have confidence like Clair because she was poor?-lol Talk to me

Clair was FAKE and Florida was REAL

You just don't like anything Cosby do you?

Florida Evans

Give me some Florida Evans. She was a true mother struggling to keep her family afloat living on a low income. She knew whatever the situation may be she knew it was all going to work out. Her performance when James died when she said the classic, "DAMN, DAMN, DAMN" was so powerful and I get chills when that scene rolls around. Her homecoming in the final season was moving she made that scene so real when she was so glad to see her children. I like Clair Huxtable as well but given Florida's circumstances in life she was much more grounded than Clair. Florida was funny when she mocked J.J. when he got out there with his antics.
