Of those four, George Jefferson and Fred Sanford are the funniest. In fact, they are the only ones that make me laugh (it's very hard for a sitcom and its characters to do that).

i dont really know who most of those people are

but i know who frd stanford is

I have seen like i think all ofthose episodes. I saw the season fin.... My dad recorded it then kept watching it and watching it and watching it.

The only two that I have found funny of the four is Fred Sanford from Sanford and Son and George Jefferson from The Jeffersons. The other two just bore me. Archie Bunker is my least favorite. I can't stand him or his loud mouth.

For me it is a tie between George Jefferson and Archie Bunker, because they are almost the same person. They have differing arguments but they are just about from the same point of view.

1. Fred Sanford
2. George Jefferson
3. Archie Bunker

James Evans isn't even remotely funny.

Just curious, what made James Evans unfunny?

He didn't have funny lines. It's hard to explain...he just didn't amuse me.

I think what made James Evans funny was the fact that his character was not created to be funny. Unlike stupid J,J. James Evans lines were not created to generate laughs but they were so funny.

1. George Jefferson (his cocky attitude was what made him funny)
2. Fred Sanford (his gruff voice made him even more hilarious)
3. James Evans
4. Archie Bunker (his ignorance and stupidity just became annoying)
