Sanford and Son

It is such an influential work; you can see its effect on many better known comedy shows retrospectively. It becomes a bit tired in the last 2 seasons, they are out of ammo; but they created some really iconic recurrent jokes (Elisabeth, I'm coming honey is my favourite). Redd Foxx's tricks are very subtle; like doing slapstick without slapstick (fake fighting trick). It is a playful show, full of energy. It was a joy to watch.

A bit repetitive but Foxx is so goofy and charming it works.
