I have to say Rollo and Hulio because every scene with Fred and these characters was entertaining. Hulio's memorable phrase when he called Fred a big dummy in his language which was Sangano! And he repeated it over and over. Rollo always was wild. No matter how ignorant or mean Fred was toward him, Rollo always maintained a cool laid back demeanor and would say "that's Cold Pop". Esther and Fred had their funny moments but not as funny as Rollo and Hulio. But I will always love the scene when Fred gives Esther a clear piece of plastic and tells her that her new Halloween Mask-LOL. So in your opinion, what character or characters made Fred the Funniest?

Hulio to me was funnerthan Esther, I guess i feel that way because Esther always said the same thing-Watch it sucka, You old fish eyed fool, it became stale. Hulio was the man. I wish he would have stayed. |

I like Julio a lot too. My favorite ones with Julio is when Julio's mother and sister come and visit and Fred doesn't want Lamont to date Julio's sister,and Fred and Julio's mother go to that Chinese resturant and spy on them,and then two of Fred's friends come and tease Fred for being out with her. Another episode is where Julio tries to make friends with Fred by taking him and Lamont to the Mexican resturant. Another episode is where Fred wants to set up a boundary line to separate their property from Julio's.And the episode where they try to make a TV Commerical and everyone has different ideas. I don't know why Gregory Sierra left Sanford and Son, I know that he played Chano on Barney Miller for a couple of seasons,and he even had his own series, A.E.S. Hudson Street, which lasted just a few episodes,and I know that he has guest starred on some shows like Miami Vice. Do you know what happened to Gregory Sierra???

I'd say Rollo and sometimes Esther. Fred's prejudice against Julio got really old.

Hmmm... toss up between Rollo & Esther for me. I'd lean towards Rollo, though. I love the convict jokes!

My vote is for Aunt Esther:
Esther: Poor little couch, I bet you haven't been dusted in years Fred: Poor little couch, I bet this is the first time you've been sat on by a buffalo Esther: Poor little walls, It's a shame you have to be here and hear the language that comes out of this man's mouth Fred: Poor little wall, you outta be glad you ain't got no eyes to see who's talking to you I just die laughing when I see that exchange, and this one: Esther: Who're you callin' ugly sucka' ?? Fred: You ! Fred: I could stick your face in some dough and make some gorilla cookies ! Chad |

Much as I love Fred's interactions with Julio, Rollo and Chico - his best interactions were with Esther. The way those two insulted each other was priceless!!
Esther was good at both dishing it out and taking it.
