Pinky Peterson. Remember the episode where Archie tried to get back at Pinky by setting him up with Beverly LaSalle (A man dressed as a woman).

Reverend Felcher. Archie has little use for what the reverend has to say on Sunday mornings.
Little Emmanuel. He had to choose between Stretch Cunningham and Little Emmanuel. He chooses the keep Stretch because he's white. In a later episode, when Stretch dies, it is revealed that he was Jewish. Archie is asked to speak at the funeral.
704 Hauser Street . H-A-U-S-E-R is the correct spelling as seen on the show, but I've received a few complaints, so any spelling will have to do I guess. There's just no pleasing some people.
