 Inspector Cramer
Inspector Fergus Cramer (his full name is only ever mentioned once, in Where There's A Will) of the New York Police Department is Nero Wolfe's main foil in the Nero Wolfe mystery series by Rex Stout.
Cramer is a simple man who shares few, if any, of Wolfe's tastes; in the story "Black Orchids", for example, when he sees the orchid that Wolfe went to such trouble to procure, he says something to the effect that it's "pretty, but drab", and that he prefers geraniums.
Cramer is married; his wife sometimes answers the phone at their apartment, but she is never developed further.

Inspector Morse heightens the intensity of the audience's participation by providing non-diegetic clues (such as the framing of particular shots or the choice of incidental music) that add to the complexity of the puzzle or provide additional clues, without impairing the narrative flow.
Inspector Morse had already proven that viewers were willing to commit to long-form dramas, and so A Touch of Frost did not need to flatter, or convince of its intrinsic intellectual worth to sustain an audience.

Whether at home or at work, Inspectors are nothing if not dependable, particularly when it comes to examining the people and products they are responsible for—quietly seeing to it that uniform quality is maintained, and that those around them uphold certain standards of attitude and conduct.
Inspectors feel right at home with difficult, detailed forms and columns of figures, and thus they make excellent bank examiners, auditors, accountants, and tax attorneys.
