Apart from Homo Novus, of course. Any other beloved comedic characters?

Adina and Patsy on Absolutely Fabulous. Yes I know it's girly but I love how shameful and rebellious they are.

Maxwell Smart from Get Smart. The 60s version with Don Adams, obviously.

- Blackadder
- Frasier and Niles Crane, Daphne (Frasier)
- Abed, Troy, Dean Pelton and Chang (Community)

And I totally ship Mr. Burns and Waylon Smithers.
