Just Stating the Obvious Poetry Contest

Television's Funster's 
Two of my favorites 
The Addams Family and the Munster's 

The Honeymooner's- with Ralph and Ed 
Their still on late at night 
Fun to watch- 'fore we go to bed 

The Odd Couple- a comedy treat 
It is certainly odd 
Oscar so messy, Felix so neat 

Fred, Barney and Dino the dinosaur 
Got to love the Flintstone's 
I must have watched them a thousand times...or more 

The Little Rascals- all of the gang 
Spanky, Buckwheat, Darla... 
Oh, and how Alfalfa Sang  

When it comes to smartness- Abbott was the worst 
Costello was the genius... 
He wrote- "Who's on first"  

The smartest man to play his part 
Obviously, it has to be Don Adams 
He was "Maxwell Smart"  

The funniest lady of them all 
The one that I love 
I Love Lucy's- Lucille Ball
