I believe it is available on Prime Streaming. Very funny, very British, very entertaining.

The Vicar of Dibley is streaming on Prime.

To me there there are many but the one who stands out the most is Carroll Oโ€™Connor as Archie Bunker

I'm not sure who my all time favorite character is...but, the following stand out:

The stoic/gruff performance of Ed Asner as Lou Grant in the Mary Tyler Moore show

Peter Faulk as Columbo

James Garner as Jim Rockford in the Rockford Files

George Wendt as Norm on Cheers

Carol Burnett...in her variety show

Goldie Hawn as the airhead blonde in Laugh-In

Lucy and Ethel, working on the chocolate candy assembly line

Audrey Meadows, just standing there, with her hand on her hip, watching Ralph rant and rave


And who didn't belly laugh at Harvey Korman and Tim Conway in that skit in the dentist chair?

Or the "Elephant Story" on the Carol Burnett show when Conway went totally off script when they were live, and the rest of the cast couldn't keep a straight face

"The Music Box"...Laurel and Hardy won an Academy Award for Best Short Subject Comedy for this one...The boys struggle to deliver a piano up a long flight of stairs. The stairs are still there...I climbed them while on a trip to Hollywood a few years back
