My money is on the 3 Stooges, specifically, Curley. He was not just slap-stick comedy. He used puns too. Puns are the lowest form of humor, but the highest form of wit. He was just a misunderstood but hugely funny guy.

Dang, some people are getting carried away or are so broke they can't pay attention. I said BLAND and WHITE TV, people. Archie Bunker was always in color, so was Laugh In, I believe. 10 points is only for the best answer re: Black and White TV days.

The Stooges are classic, but remember, Curley was part of a team - without Moe and Larry to play off, he wouldn't be as good.
Check out some Sid Caesar and Steve Allen. Those guys could do physical AND mental ... with and comedy. Steve is gone, but Sid can still ROCK the comedy.

I quite love George Burns and Gracie Allen. They had a sense of comic timing that was unequaled. George played the semi-chauvenistic character and Gracie the naive, gullible character; however, it was always Gracie that got the better of George proving that she was indeed the funnier of the two.
