Probably the best B&W sitcom of all time, with the undoubted sexual chemistry between van Dyke and Moore helping things along enormously. It Looks Like a Walnut makes me tear up with laughter each viewing, and the 'Sonny Tufts' alien invasion episode is pretty classic as well.

Ever see the episode with the great Godfrey Cambridge as an FBI agent who has to camp out in the Petrie home? He and van Dyke were great together--not to mention the pretty groundbreaking depiction of a black man as a Federal law enforcement agent (the show was ahead of its time racially in at least a couple of episodes)--and I wish the two of them had teamed up on the show a few more times.
