So, does Latka count as an alien?

Thanks for doing the chart Joe - very helpful. BTW - depending on how the next few rounds go, I may need to use Kelly Bundy as my 'child' character. ...

@averagejoe stealing Homer simpson from me makes me go with the poor man's Homer.... not quite homer, but keeps me on my storyline... assuming i get one of the 2 people i need with my next pick...

Joe, I drafted Chandler Bing and Trudem was Norm from Cheers, just an FYI for the chart.

Thanks Wil. More from Mr. Floopy. ....

How the hell did I miss this Mr. Floppy? @leftypower, is that Bobcat Goldthwait doing the voice?

That is correct !!! The show probably wasn't very popular since it was very obviously a takeoff on Married with Children - but it had it's moments. ... especially Mr. Floppy. ...

this is so weird. ~25 picks since my last one, not a single name gone from my wish list. Sure Dr. Huxtable, Homer, Joey, and George Jefferson would've been great to get.. But, not specifically on my list...why can't that happen in FF? Get a couple guys at the turn, and I'll be damned, everyone you wanted is still there when it comes back around for 3 & 4

Because the player pool here is ridiculously large and the scoring system is subjective.

It is easy to measure who the best RB is, the one who scores the most points. Here? Not so much.

Was somewhat rhetorical, but yes, that's an accurate response

Zap Brannigan is my all time favorite charactor, everything he did was hilarious to me.

I'm guessing he's human?

Fixed. Will be reflected in the next chart update tonight.

My biggest conundrum when picking is weighing the iconic value of a character vs the hilarity of the character. Some shows have an entire cast of characters that, on their own, are just ok. Not sure where I was going with this?
Obviously we all have differing tastes. But I agree there are some quality characters still available.

Yeah, I decided to go with the guys that make me laugh the most, then I noticed they weren't very iconic........so I figured I'd better go with Peggy Bundy (yeah, she's not that iconic either) when there are at least 3 women that make me laugh more...........

I'm sticking with the humor side vs. iconic. My favorite sitcom characters all coincide with that strategy anyways so it makes it easy.
