So this came to me in a dream last night: "And now, it's time for nobody's favorite sitcom Hortense & Rudolf He's a Nazi spy posing as a Mississippi factory owner! She's an FBI agent posing as his housekeeper! And as if that weren't wacky enough, they're in love!"
Yeah, I'm twisted but bear with me. What I need from you guys are casting suggestions. Any actors from any decade (as long as there was TV at the time) but remember that Hortense is black. Okay, go!
Cei-U! I summon Rudolf's catchphrase "Heil Hitluh, y'all!"

Werner Klemperer as Rudolf and Flip Wilson as Hortense. Okay, THIS made me LOL. It's 2AM here. My neighbors must think I'm demented. (If they read this thread, they'd KNOW I'm demented!)
Cei-U! I summon the blue ribbon!
