15 Sitcom Neighbors, From Wacky To Serial Killer

Since sitcoms tend to be mostly family centric, a neighbor popping in here and there just makes sense. The more characters, the more possibilities for hilarity. And hey, if a character is not working out, they can always just inexplicably stop showing up (we're looking at you, Judy from Family Matters). A good sitcom neighbor, though… They can start out as a one-off joke, and end up stealing the show (we're looking at you, Urkel from Family Matters). Wow, we really need to start finding more shows to reference here.

As art tends to imitate life, neighbors can be utter nightmares, but as many of these sitcom families know, they can also provide charm, advice, and most importantly, a good laugh. Welcome presence or not, they often help their shows live on in our hearts forever. From wise words to sexual deviance, we weigh in on 15 well known sitcom neighbors.
