Mother Jefferson
The apple did not fall far from the tree when George Jefferson was born: "Mother" Olivia Jefferson is as much a windbag as the son she spoils. She loves to social climb as much as George and brags maybe even more than he does. She has a knack for inviting herself over for dinner and for showing up at George's penthouse apartment at inopportune times. George adores her, and as such Louise develops strategies to deal with her -- including trading insults. Nothing Louise does is good enough for Mother Jefferson, but George doesn't see the passive-aggressive side she presents to her daughter-in-law.
