10 TV Neighbors We Wish Lived Next Door To Us (PHOTOS)

Have we left anyone out?
|

Growing up, we were always in awe of the next-door neighbors found on television. You know, those secondary characters that were best friends, mentors and life coaches (or pains in the ass) to the main players on the show. Very rarely is anyone lucky enough to have their number one go-to person just a flight of stairs or lawn away. Even today, when we get to pick and choose where we want to live, we’ve yet to find our Rhoda Morgenstern or dare we say, Mister Rogers. So to honor the best TV neighbors, we’ve complied a list of the awesome characters we wish lived next to--or near-- us. Click through and tell us who you’d most want to share a backyard with.

Barney & Betty Ruble from “The Flintstones” (08 of10)

Barney liked to bowl and play poker, so he'd always be down for something fun. Betty was great at gossiping and wouldn't mind when you needed to vent about your husband. (credit:ABC Photo Archives)
Penny from “Big Bang Theory"(09 of10)

She might not be all that smart but she's got common sense and is really sociable. So when you're down in the dumps she could totally talk you out of it. (credit:CBS)
Mister Rogers from "Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood"(10 of10)

Last but never least. He is ultimate neighbor because he always wanted to be yours. (credit:Everett Collection)
