Were Lenny & Squiggy the first pop-culture Omega orbitors?

I was reading about the passing of one of the actors portraying these characters:

'Laverne & Shirley' 'Squiggy' Star David Lander Dead at 73 from Multiple Sclerosis

David Lander, the actor who played Squiggy on "Laverne & Shirley" has died, TMZ has learned.

The younger folks might not know who these guys are - they were from the TV show "Laverne & Shirley" in the '70s, and were viewed upon as Omega men (of course, this terminology was not in use back then since the paradigm was for every man to get a wife. )

That was a funny show. They were all good characters, good actors.
May he rest in peace.
