It could have been Larry or Mr. Roper. Two very funny Supporting characters

I think Larry is the most underrated sitcom character ever.

He should have gotten his own spinoff.

Three's A Crowd should have centered around him, running his used-car lot, with a girlfriend and her father. Rather than Jack.

Its weird having a spinoff, with the same star of the parent show.

That's why i consider Three's a Crowd a CONTINUATION of Three's Company instead of a spinoff.

Janet Wood of Three's Company. She and Jack were the heart and backbone of the show. Personally they should had been Three's A Crowd instead of Jack and Vicky.

James Gregory when he played Luger on Barney Miller; I personally thought he did a phenomenonal job protraying the rather eccentric and aging Inspector....

Another vote for Larry.

another sitcom character that I thought was very underrated was Diana Canova who played Corrine Tate on Soap, I adored her, and I thought she did a wonderful job protraying an exasperated daughter to a rather unstable family....

Inspector Luuger from "Barney Miller"

Fonzie on "Happy Days" before it "jumped the shark" midway through the second season
