Classic TV Neighbors We'd Want to Live Next Door To (at Least for a Day)

The bond between neighbors is unlike anything else. They're the people we feel comfortable enough to borrow sugar from and still not invite to our holiday parties. We call the police on each other, yet wave and talk from a distance while we take out the trash. But life would be much more interesting if these classic TV neighbors were living next door to us. Did we leave any out?


Kramer was the zany, intrusive neighbor of Jerry Seinfeld, who famously always knew how to open the door at the perfect comedic time and barge in.


"Ugly naked guy" was the neighbor who always hung out naked in his apartment for the whole gang to see out their apartment window.


Ned Flanders is the annoyingly chipper neighbor of Homer Simpson.


Fred Mertz was the loudmouth neighbor of Lucy and Ricky who would always gossip to Rick about their wives.


The D'Arcys were the rowdy power couple next door to the Bundys who had a reciprocal relationship of making Al's life a living hell.


George and Louise Jefferson were the affluent African-American neighbors of Archie Bunker. They were so popular that they moved on up to their own spin-off series, which was the second TV spin-off of "All in the Family."


George and Martha Wilson endured living next door to the neighborhood's biggest menace.


Glenn Quagmire is the sexual deviant living next door to the Griffin family with the classic catch phrase "giggity."


"Boner" was the memorably named troublemaker and best friend to Michael Seaver, played by Kirk Cameron.


Vinnie Delphino was best friend to child doctor, Doogie Howser (Neil Patrick Harris), who would climb through the bedroom window unannounced.


Steve Urkel was the nerdy, cheese-loving inventor living next to the Winslows.


Kimmy Gibbler was the annoying, unwelcome neighbor and best friend of D.J. Tanner who would make herself at home to the Tanners' dismay.


Barney Rubble was the yabba-dabba-doofus who ignorantly annoyed his neighbor Fred Flintstone.

George Feeney was both teacher and neighbor mentor to his student, Cory Matthews.


Winnie Cooper was the dream girl living down the street from Kevin Arnold on "The Wonder Years." The actress who played Winnie, Danica McKellar, grew up to become a major babe.


Wilson W. Wilson was the inconspicuously sage neighbor who offered wisdom to his accident-prone neighbor, Tim Taylor.
