    Very strange question, I'd have to say they were equally enjoyable to watch. Both born in 1923 & both were very good comedic actors with Storch starting his career in 1951 & Adams about a dozen years later. They both had signature rolls that made them stars. Storch as corporal Agarn in F-troop & of course Adams as Maxwell Smart in Get Smart.

    We lost Don Adams in 2005 at the age of 82 & Storch is still going strong at 91.

    Please define "best" along with the criteria to determine "best"....

    I can't help but say-such determination(s) would be relative to a viewers point of view....

    Really enjoyed F Troup with Forest Tucker, Ken Berry,
    Larry Storch, who is 91 years young, and Melody Patterson.
    Had a crush for Melody.

    Did you know that when the show was started in 1965 Melody Paterson played Ken Berry's love interest? Of course you knew, but I'll bet you didn't know that during the first season Ken Berry then 32 was actually kissing a 16 year old girl. Unbeknownst to the producers of the show who were told that Paterson was 20 at the time.

    And btw: did you also know that she was once married to Hawaii 5-0 actor James (Dano) MacArthur?

    Now 65 Melody still looks pretty good. Just for you cage, https://www.google.com/search?q=mel...ei=8JcwVJGfA4SRyQSS1oGQBA&sqi=2&ved=0CIoBEIke

    Got to go with Storch. F Troop was a funny show. Adams was pretty pigeon holed by Get Smart.
