So inspired by the Harry Potter Role I am going to introduce a character, a legend if you will in this role. Your job is to give me a replacement, someone that could fill those shoes and equal or outperform the original. After I have seen enough suggestions I will create a pole or poll and we can vote.

My first actor up for replacement is the legendary Red Foxx on Sanford and Son which ran from 1972 to 1978. Red Foxx's character on *Sanford and Son*, Fred Sanford, is a sharp-tongued, sarcastic, and often cantankerous man. He’s a shrewd, street-smart junk dealer in his 60s who runs a second-hand store with his son, Lamont. Fred is known for his exaggerated, dramatic antics, often pretending to have heart attacks when something frustrates him. While he often acts like a grumpy, selfish curmudgeon, Fred shows moments of tenderness and vulnerability, particularly toward his son. His humor is based on witty insults, one-liners, and his penchant for making fun of others, but it’s all part of his tough exterior that masks a deeper, more complex character with a heart of gold.

Alright, impress me.

I can’t think of one person that could duplicate what Redd did. He was natural in his role. Anyone else would look ridiculous.
Yeah. I was too young when the series was first on but as a kid every night at 10 was MASH and 10:30 was Sanford and Son.

I always thought to myself - You could flip Fred Sanford for Archie Bunker... and both shows would still be equally good, for completely different reasons.
