Funniest Sitcom Sidekick

My vote goes to Art Carney, who played Ed Norton on The Honeymooners.

The best episode was Norton trying to teach Ralph how to play golf. According to the instructions from a golfing guide, the golfer is suppose to address the ball before swinging at it. So Norton is about to swing the club when he stops and says "Hello Ball", only to get smacked by Kramden.

I'll go along with you on that, and I'll place Don Knotts as
Barney Fife on The Andy Griffith Show second.

Bob Newhart deserves something for having THREE funny sidekicks
on his '70s show: Bill Daily (Howard), Peter Bonerz (Jerry),
and Marcia Wallace (Carol).

Don't know what's funnier... that scene or just seeing Ralph in those knickers.

My vote goes to a pair: Morey Amsterdam and Rose Marie as Buddy and Sally on The Dick Van Dyke Show.
