Subject: Favorite Sanford & Son Character
Written By: eightiesfan on 12/29/04 at 7:59 am
My favorite character on this whole show is Aunt Esther because the way her and Fred bickered with each other was hilarious - he'd make an insult to her such as "Aunt Gorilla" and she'd come back with "Watch it Sucka" ;D
I also liked Grady the best among Fred's buddies. :)

Rollo had to be one of the 1st Pimp characters on a sitcom.In His 1st appearences He's all Pimped out....The outfits, matching wide brimmed hat,the exaggerated walk.
As the show goes on they softened Him A LOT then He disappeared all together.
Grady was very cool too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They wrote Fred out of the show for a few episodes, they had him going back east to visit relatives, I think it was a contact dispute with the studio and Redd Foxx

Yeah, that was when Redd Foxx was trying to get more money, so they sent his character to St Louis for several episodes and Grady moved in with Lamont.

and I think they named the show something else.This must've been The Sanford Arms in 1981.

Of course, I'm going to say Fred as my first.
Second was Grady (Whitman Mayo) he could be hilarious at times!
Smitty & Hoppe were also pretty good. Hoppe was the funniest, always getting the pronunciations wrong:
Hoppe: 'We'll 'scoop' ya later'!
Smitty: 'That's DIG you later!
Classic!
