A true masterpiece. A timeless classic which can be watched no matter how old you are or where you're from. The humour relies on the character being "wacky" but they pull it off without it being cringe or over the top. Something that is extremely rare.
I watched this when I was a kid living in India and found it funny and 12+ years later with my friend I watched it as a joke, expecting to not laugh and see how much I've outgrown this show. Turns out I was laughing even more. I understood so many more references and the acting is just so brilliant, for a character that basically says nothing, he does it all with his body language alone. He says nothing, instead speaks a language we all understand, the body language. What makes it amazing is that the situation keeps changing, they don't just milk the same joke over and over, they keep doing something new.
I'm not the type of guy who finds many comedy based movies or tv shows or anime funny. Indeed popular comedy tv shows or films just fly over my head. I think the humour is too forced or just cringe and unfunny to a point where the shows main attraction is my main distaste towards it. Plus the show has to rely on characters being the same typical way everytime. It's like they copy each others work and just use the same jokes too. This is probably the only show where I've just watched it and just had a good laugh. Iconic character and iconic show, no matter who you are or where you're from.
