We love the big stars, but sometimes the people who make our favorite TV shows so memorable are the supporting characters. Here are some of our favorites.
George, along with his wife Louise (Isabel Sanford) and son, Lionel (Mike Evans), "moved on up" to a better place in life and the challenges that came along with that offered lots of light and fun hearted humor.
