Writer's Block: BFFs

If you had to pick a character from your favorite TV show back in middle school to be your best friend today, who would you choose, and why? Have you outgrown some of the characters you loved when you were an early adolescent?

I was always a little precocious for my age and hated a lot of things I was supposed to like such as 8 is Enough and the Brady Bunch.  My BFFs would have been Bob and Emily from the Bob Newhart Show, or Sgt. Dietrich from Barney Miller.  I've always joked that I consider myself the "pink-collar" Dietrich - always coming up with random, interesting and inappropriate thoughts in the middle of conversations.
