      they did do a lot of stuff that was just nonsensical, almost dadaistic, it didn’t always make me laugh, but I loved the craziness and the creativity of it. And a lot of it still makes me laugh to the point of losing control, and I couldn’t even explain why. I really enjoyed the physical comedy of the two of them too.
